Today's workout can be considered a lower body work out. With each squat series I started with the bar (45lbs) to learn technique. Then I would add weight. The maximim weight I got with both overhead and front squats were 63lbs. I got as high as 73lbs with back squats.

I have never done overhead squats with a weighted bar nor have I ever done front squats.. You may see my face make some unusual expressions because I'm doing something new plus I be concerned with my knee.
