5K row was the WOD (again)
Rowed for 24 minutes since broken moniter prevents me from knowing the distance rowed (probably more like 6K row).
Brutal to do almost 2 days in a row, but a great workout. Definitely felt the stroke more this time and appreciated the practice.
Prior to row, did heavy back squats working up to heavy set of 3 reps
Back Squats:
3 x 285
3 x 295
3 X 305
3 X 320
Did 315 for 3 reps on 12/29/09. I think this is a legit PR for my heaviest squat for reps for in recent history (last 6-8 years). Felt good and it was able to get into a pretty deep squat. Pretty happy with this considering heavy snatch yesterday and 5k Row day before that.
Only time I went heavier recently was for a single with 345 lbs on 7/01/09 (and again on 10/15/09) as part of a Crossfit Total.
I try not to remember that I could knock out sets of 15 - 20 with 315 lbs. back when I was 20 years younger and was in my 6th year of playing football. But I also couldn't have run a 5K in under 27 minutes then, among other things I can do now, so I am still at a much better overall fitness level.

WOD:
Front Squats
1 - 10 - 1 - 20 - 1 - 30
205 x 1
175 x 10
215 x 1
115 x 20
225 x 1
95 x 30
Total (all weight amounts, not counting reps): 1030 lbs.
I really underestimated my max front squat for this type of workout. Could have gone a lot heavier on those singles. I even did a 245 single right after the 30 rep set. Legs were too sore to try for more at that point. The weights I used for the high reps sets were just about right though. The Set of 30 with 95 lbs. was particularly hard to complete. I never racked the bar, but I paused for a few deep breaths at the top during reps 16-30.
I also did some GTG (grease the groove) type work on dips & pull-ups. 6 sets of 7 kipping pull-ups & 6 sets of 10 dips. Those reps scheme are about 1/2 of my max reps for either exercise.
