Supersquats, Week 1, Workout A

Did lots of reading to make sure I knew the requirements of the program - hard to devote yourself to eating, eating, eating then discover you're getting fatter, fatter, fatter because the workout isn't effective.

So...

I was tempted to stack more weight on the squats. I toyed with the idea of putting 185 on and starting there.
I'm glad I avoided the temptation. I ended my 20 sets with such a sudden blinding headache and dizziness that I wished I could pass out.

That was new and unwelcome. But I certainly didn't feel I left anything on the table.
