Back squat 5-5-5-5-5

As time allows: muscle-up practice (transitions, ring dips, ring supports, bar dips, ring pull-ups, etc.)

On the squats, we’re going for 5 sets across (all at the same weight). Try to increase the weight from what you did in the 5 x 5 squat last Monday.

Tip: Shrug hard into the bar. Every muscle in your back should be rigid as soon as you touch the bar.
