3 x 245lbs
3 x 256lbs
3 x 267lbs
3 x 278lbs

Natural GHR(attempts)
3 x 8 x BW

Split Squats
3 x 6e x 135lbs

Romanian Deadlifts
2 x 20 x 135lbs

Comments:
-converting all those weights from kilograms to pounds was annoying
-For the box squats, this was the first time I had ever box squatted, and also the first time i had done any type of squat for less than 9 reps, so i totally guessed the weight at the start. Last two sets started to get hard though.
- As for the GHR's, my negatives are pretty much a free-fall now, then i push up for the concentric portion and focus on really contracting the hams, most of the work is done by the push, but the last portion is done by me. Damn GHR's are hard.
-Split Squats were ALOT harder than i thought(first time doing them), made all the reps, but i think my form must be off or something, these didn't feel to good.
-20 rep RDL's! really feel the burn in the hams, and the gripping muscles. these were good.
-Overall an awesome workout, lots of new exercises and rep ranges.
