DE box squats

Back at it today at golds in American Fork.  I did lots of box squats with bands, I didn't take notes, but I did various doubles and triples working up to 245 pounds with both purple and mini bands ( I'm not sure how much tension this makes, but it really felt like it was pulling me down at the top ), probably about 15 sets or so.  I felt super strong/explosive today, and the squats felt good even though I was slightly sore from pulling yesterday at the meet.  

After explosive doubles and triples with bands, I dropped down to just 135 with no bands, and played around with depth.  I moved the pins down out of the way, and squatted staying down below parallel for probably 30+ seconds trying to relax my hips, moving them back, and then exploaded up as much as possible.  I did 3 sets of 6 like this.  I think I'll have to play around with doing these again, I think it will help me in getting my hips back.

Dumbbell rows, 3 sets 125x8
