  1. CW 15 - 35 - 55 - 65 - 75 - 85. Wanting to get the form right and not knowing how this would turn out, I started light. I coudn't feel the weight and balance until 35# though. This was fun!

  2. 15-25-35-50-60: Didn't feel the form until I hit 25#. My front squat form still needs a lot of work...keeping the elbows up and weight back. This workout was very different, but I liked it!
