Every Infidel for themselves...

Tried 20-rep sets of squats today. Warmed up, then loaded up 225.

Here was my internal dialog

Reps 1-5: "Knees out, head down, pull the bar into the back, down deep, drive out with the hips, good."

Reps 5-10: "Knees Out, this is getting heavy, down deep, hip drive, drive drive, ok."

Reps 10-12: "Ok, This officially sucks ass. I'm ready to be done. Down, up, Down, up"

Reps 13-15: "Sweet mother of god, it burns!! DOWN. UP."

Reps 16, 17, 18: "JESUSFUCKINGCHRISTOHMYGODWHATTHEHELLAMIDOING"

Rep 19:
There is no me, there is no bar. There is only pain.

Rep 20:
n/a there was no thought taking place at this time

Collapsed and writhed in the floor for a bit, but the pain wouldn't stop. It took a good few minutes before I could even lay still.

I waited 5 minutes and tried to do another 20 rep set at 205, but was cashed out at 17 and had to rack it. Finished that set, waited another 5 minutes, and got in 10 reps at 185, and took a few more attempts to get to 20.


20 rep sets = murder. My new favorite form of self-punishment.

I remember that one, Jason. We tried it when it was originally posted on HQ 7/2/08. http://infidelcrossfit.blogspot.com/2008/07/wednesday-straight-up.html
