So as I write this I'm about 20min post my 1.5 hour leg workout munching on tons of gummy bears and sipping my protein shake. I had the opportunity to train with my friends Eric and Mirek and got some heavy weights up. This whole workout just reminded how around 2.5 years ago I was squatting with 135lbs and thinking it was cool to have a plate on each side, then 225, then 315. Its really great to look back and see how far you have come. Anyhow, enough reminiscing. Here was my workout
Back Squats- bar x20, 135x5, 175x5, 225x5, 275x3, 315x5, 355x5, 375x4, 385x5 (Yes, that's right. Look back in a few weeks/months to see 405x15 :D)
Leg Press- 540lbsx10, x12
Leg Extensions- 70x10, 80x10,90x10
Leg Curls 125x10,x10,x10
Heavy Ab Roman chair-35x10,50x10,70x7
Squats took up most of the time but that's okay. They will always be the most taxing and I always find that its important to move up in weight slowly and not just jump to 385. I can't ever imagine just coming in and doing 405. You just have to warm up and add weight slowly.
Tomorrow will be cardio/calves. Thinking about deloading next week but still unsure.
