Get ready to yell.

After all, “Insufficient yelling in the gym causes bad form.” - Mark Rippetoe

We need to do some max effort work, and as this was on the HQ page recently...

Overhead squat 1-1-1-1-1 reps
Front squat 1-1-1-1-1 reps
Back squat 1-1-1-1-1 reps

Try to increase the load on each of the fifteen sets.

It could have been my form, but my elbow did not agree with the front squats.

Failure was not an option, so I switched to Back squats as follows:
