''Bodyweight Back Squat Challenge'' (01.08.2011)

"Beyond the very extreme of fatigue and distress, we may find amounts of ease and power we never dreamed ourselves to own; sources of strength never taxed at all because we never push through obstruction.''
-William James

''Bodyweight Back Squat Challenge'' (01.08.2011)
Warm-up with the following percentage based sets before attempting to complete as many repetitions of unbroken Bodyweight Back Squats as possible.
40% x 5
50% x 3
60% x 3
Back Squat (1xBW) x Maximum Unbroken Reps

Notes: Athlete's may scale the load to 3/4 bodyweight or 1/2 bodyweight as needed. Those that are attempting rep records at bodyweight will be in contention for the top leader board spot for that category. Get some.
