Yukon squats
325 x 5
375 x 5
425 x 5
315 x 10, 10, 10, 10, 10
* Back was the weak link here, reracked on the first 315 rep thinking I might have to do these sets later but got through with no twinges. Legs are feeling real strong despite being hungry and knees are pain free.

Was running on 4.5 hours of sleep and was struggling mentally on the very last set. Just felt kind of floaty and out of it. The weight was light and I'm kinda annoyed I didn't press the time more despite the fog, but good session nonetheless.

Sidenote: I've seen a bunch of people online talking shit against Jon Andersen's enhanced physique and Instagram personality. I just have to say WTF at that latter point. It's an obviously intentional over-the-top persona (he was a pro wrestler), I think it's awesome. Each post puts a smile on my face while also providing a good, simple nugget of life advice. People take themselves way too seriously (and without having much to show for it).

  1. Jon is such a legit good dude when you hear him sit down and talk. He really just wants to put some good out there. Glad you've been enjoying him. And awesome to see you hitting the training so hard dude!

  2. He's great, it bums me out that people rag on him just for having a fun personality but it's their loss. Thanks for the eternal encouragement!
