Last week of Phase 1

I again used the box squats to help with my front squat form.  I think it helped a lot.  I managed to set a new PR for front squats.  Felt good!  I really like the speed deadlifts.  I think in the book it was mentioned that these are to "groove" the movement and I can see that.

Looking ahead to Phase 2, I see lots of new-to-me exercises.  I'll be breaking out the videos again!  I'm glad Eric made all the videos part of this package.  I'd be lost without them.  The new moves keep things interesting, though!
