What is going on everybody? Jay Clark the Jumper here. Today we are getting a workout in. The workout prescribed is heavy front squats. If the heavy single is there, if a heavy max is there, I'm going to go for it. My current max is 400 pounds
0:22
and one of the significant things about my front squat max is two years ago when I was training
0:30
the goal was kind of focusing on getting that that big 400 pound front squat four days after
0:36
getting that 400 pound front squat I ended up doing the double between the legs dunk
0:42
and it was kind of one of those things where I knew having that type of strength meant I had
0:49
enough strength to get that dunk completed. So, you know, just trying to build on that and build
0:56
towards my 500-pound squat. That's what I've been training and focusing on. When I hit the 400-pound
1:03
squat, it was December 21st, and we are currently December, I think today's the 9th, if I'm not
1:11
mistaken, yeah, today's the ninth. So, um, I'm not in the same shape I was at that time. I think I was
1:20
a little bit lighter. Right now I'm kind of sitting at 191 and like I've said in some of my past
1:25
videos, it's a little heavy, but I think right now with, you know, developing strength, I'm not worried
1:31
too much about that number. I know once I kind of focus on jump specific or dunk specific weight
1:39
I'll be there and I'll be where I need to be. But yeah heavy fronts I really wanna just make sure that my depth is good my form is good and I looking to put up a big number
2:16
Thank you
2:46
Thank you
3:16
All right that was my last warm set Felt good It didn feel super fast but I remember when I was going for the max I don think I moved it incredibly fast
3:55
So I'm going to do some heavy singles, build up. If I continue to feel good, I will go for a max
4:04
If not, I'll stay in a challenging week and rip out some doubles
4:34
Thank you
5:04
Thank you
5:59
all right i hit 401 for a front squat pr one pound pr but you know it's a small win it's
6:14
getting better every single day that's the goal that's all i can do i felt i was a little forward
6:19
on 401 and same thing with 423 kind of when i got down to the bottom just didn't have it today
6:25
which is which is fine I was kind of aiming for hoping for that today but this time of year
6:34
when I was training my last cycle I wasn't at 400 pound levels yet so I know there's more to come
6:43
I'll be dropping weight getting a little bit more in shape and the power will still be there so
6:48
just continuing to train as I train gonna hit some core gonna get on a little bit of call of
6:55
