...long story short, I ended up doing a backsquat triple of 160 (5 pounds under my previous 1 rep max) while I was extremely fatigued.
My friend Torre who is in her 2nd trimester of pregnancy also ended up in the same situation at 150.
So, she asked if I would go for a max with her at the Saturday open gym and I said yes.
The result?
Both of us absolutely destroyed our 1 rep maxes. Torre got 170 and I got up to 185.
...I can squat my boyfriend.. and then some.
I even had some in the tank, but the last rep my form got a little shady.
Next time, going for 200.
Sure, I have some limitations and I can't hold onto a barbell or rig... but ya know. GAINZ.
My friend Kim had my stick around to do the WOD afterwards... and my legs felt like jello.
Tomorrow... is a rest day.
Great thing that it's on the Sabbath Day.
