Finally! Awesome Quad session

So after struggling for a few weeks to have a good quad session I finally had one :D I didn't break any amazing PRs but I did something different and got an extra rep at 335lb squats.

Squats- 135x10, 185x5, 225x4, 275x3, 315x2, 365x1, 335x10, x5 (Yay lol)
Front Squats Olympic style- 225x6, 235x6, 245x6, 255x6, 265x6
Leg Press- 8 platesx18,x14
Leg Extensions giant set- 70x12,x8
Calf Raises- 170x20,x14

A good session overall. I started using straps for the front squats and OMFG, that shit was easy! I kind of kept all those sets to lower reps because I read somewhere it just wasn't economical from a safety standpoint to do more and it made sense to me. Anyhow, the straps with wrist wraps=golden (pain free). I included some higher rep work towards the end to help with the connective tissue (I have been having some aches lately). I really enjoyed this workout, I was sweating like a pig and it felt good lol.

Very excited to just do cardio tomorrow (intensity will depend on how burnt my legs are). We have a Korean BBQ event going on tomorrow and my diet has been so good so I might just skip a meal and get extra protein from the meat at the BBQ.

Can't wait to drop calories and get those feathered quads!
