Back on track ruck

Solid work today. Legs felt surprisingly fresh after yesterdays work with the 48's. But then, 6's are not 10's :)
Felt strong at the start and cool breezes really helped too.
Have to say also, I am really loving my XOSKIN gear; the compression shorts are literally perfect for both my swinging and rucking and the base layer shirt today was also so comfortable, keeping me dry and cool at the same time.Plus no chafing under the ruck straps at all.
Legs were tight though so I did 12 sets of  squats just to keep them stretched out

50 lb ruck
12 laps
12 supported squat stretches
5th lap 7:41
8th lap 7:20
11th lap 7:07!

didn't think I had the last one in me but I just kept getting looser each lap

BW 166.
BF 11.9
W 56.8

perfect

Ok back off press day tomorrow. probably go with 130 and 5x5
