With a partner, complete 10 rounds each for time of:

Post back squat loads and results for the partner workout to comments.


Scaling:
For the back squats, newer lifters should focus on mechanics before heavy loads. If you do not have a partner for the second segment, rest 1 minute after each round until you have completed 10 rounds. Beginner-level athletes can reduce the volume to 5 total rounds and modify the movements.
