Back Squat (High Bar/A2A) - 305

I guess you could say that today was a good day. Ironically, it didn't start off too great; it took me quite a few reps at 95-lbs to get in a groove. Lots of aggression and controlled rage after that though. I wish every day in the gym was like this!

Soccer - 14Nov08

Played soccer tonight. We started off with about 20 minutes of conditioning work and then went into a full field scrimmage. I played in goal. It felt good to be back in the goal, but I was definitely rusty. All-in-all, today was a good day.

CA WOD - 14Nov08

Overhead Squat - 215 (PR!!!), 225 (Fail x 2)
Tall Clean + Push Press + Push Jerk - 155 x 3 sets

The OHS felt really solid at 215. At 225, I got stuck both times coming back up at about 3/4 of the way, I just couldn't seem to get my quads to finish the lift. Oh well, on the plus side, both PJs at 225 felt really smooth. Should be up to 245 next week.
