135# Squat Conditioning Set - Continuous Reps AMRAP

Not the squat session that I had planned, but it's the quick set that I actually did. Although life has made it challenging lately to be consistent with training, my conditioning is still gradually improving.

Normally I would warm up properly and ramp up to higher weights. I would also wear shorts rather than my office clothes. However, as a preparedness enthusiast I do find value in being able to demonstrate a certain level of strength and conditioning at any time and under any circumstances. To me, that's true "functional fitness." If life throws a curve and I suddenly need to perform hard physical tasks, I likely will not have the luxury of changing clothes, warming up, having pre-workout, etc. I like to know that I can jump in cold while wearing street clothes and do a moderate amount of work.

NOTE: as quite rightly pointed out by @oldnatty61 in a previous video, re-racking the bar by backing up can be dangerous, especially when very fatigued. I am aware of the risk and choose to accept it for my own reasons. However, I encourage you to be safe and squat facing the rack.
