More Fun with Squats

Squat day is really turning around, I like it so much *better* when I feel like I have SOME clue as to what I'm doing! Wow, what a difference.

Sunglasses trainer guy complimented my legs today, which took me by surprise. Definitely not something I'm used to hearing, something I know that's taking shape but hadn't thought of anywhere near THERE! Though he also gave me his phone number..hahah ;)

Ok the squats!
Totally lost it with reps 6 and 7, fought hard to get it back on 8. I think I did but it zapped me and the rest were a struggle!

No head looking all over this time (up/down, up/down, wash-rinse-repeat), tried to stay very focused/conscious of that. I don't think they were as nice as that first time it all clicked, but...clear, clear progress! Practice practice practice... :)

So here they are...150 x 12 !
