Day 2 - Foundations: Squats
Do as many squats as you can in one set.
Slow and steady. Please try to go parallel, but if you can’t, that’s okay. Do your best. I'd be happy to provide video feedback. Please use the resources below for reference and points of performance. This is meant to be one single round, quitting when form starts to get sloppy or you get gassed (out of breath)
Time Domain
One single round
Workout Movement
Level 1: Bodyweight squats or chair squats. As many as possible in one set.
Level 2: Loaded squats (weight > 0 but less than 25 lbs). Dumbbells, kettlebells, sandbags, backpacks, whatever - please execute as a front squat, and take note of the load (weight). TIP: If you aren’t sure how much something weighs, weigh yourself, take note, and then weigh again, holding the item.
Level 3: Same as Level 2 (weight > 25 lbs).
Score
Put your total number in the comments. Please don’t be shy, but it makes it much easier to go back and find when you test again. Use initials or make up a name if that makes you most comfortable, but for benchmarks and foundations, this is important for seeing successes.
