So you’ve always skipped leg day. Color me shocked.

CNS was fried. It happens. Deads have been my hardest lift to actually add weight to. I was stuck at 455 for the longest time. Finally hit 465 toward the end Of last year.

 

Hit a new pr this week on squat! Did a 5x3 at 375lb and then amrap for the 6th set and got it for 7. Body weight currently sitting around 165-166.

Freaking string man. Nice work.

 

String. Strong. Whatever.

 

Yeah, I wondered about that, but didn't want to be making excuses. I pulled 375, then PR'ed 405 then 425.

 

Good going! I'm at just 260 for 5x5.

 

Nice, give it time and it'll keep shooting up!

 

Woke up this morning and started feeling that throat drainage...

 

Leg Day Today. Maybe I can squeeze in some OHP’s, Delt Exercises, & Shoulder Shrugs
45mins isn’t ideal for workout time imo but, you take what you can get!

 

Do you give yourself much rest time between sets or just keep moving for the most part?

 

With 45 mins he’s going to be doing delt raises and squats at the same time.

 

Hahahah true that. Just have seen studies showing you actually get a better workout if you rest but it just doesn’t seem like much time lol

 

Usually after 2 sets of an exercise, I’ll take a 30 seconds to a min to rest before continuing on. If I’m lifting heavier, I’ll allow myself more time in between sets. I have to lift weights on my lunch breaks and weekends when I can. I’m really trying to change my body and am giving it the best I can. I’ll get there or close....just have to stay the course and learn as much as I can to make sure I’m doing the right exercises with proper form etc.

 

I multitask

 

When you need to workout quickly, supersets FTMFW!

 

Was able to slam out a quick 5 miler before I headed off to my side hustle.

Not feeling great. Good thing tomorrow is leg day.

 

If deadlifting wasn’t bad for you I’d be doing it today. Deficits for 3x3 at 365. Everything feels way heavier than it should.

 

Doing Deadlifts is bad for you?
