3 sets of 5

WOD Guidance
Pausing back squat allow us to focus on a couple of things that regular back squats make more difficult. Specifically, they’ll help us to achieve better squat depth by pausing in the bottom, and better core control by forcing us to spend more time with the bar on our backs. If you’re used to doing your back squats without a pause, don’t be surprised if you’re not lifting nearly as much weight. On the dumbbell floor presses, we should be able to maintain challenging but unbroken sets of 10 reps.
