Missed this mornings workout due to the parents being in town. I went into work early at 0630. It sucks, I was looking forward to a good workout, but oh well... I love my mommy and daddy (shes standing behind me right now!!!)

Almost didn't make it this morning. I tried rationalizing going tomorrow morning... I honestly don't know what made me get up. But I did.. heck yea!
Squats 5x8
1x bar
1x 135
1x 155
1x 175
1x 225 Didn't get the depth I wanted, and I want strength through full ROM
1x 180
Leg press 4 x8
not sure how much the sled weighs, but weight wise..
1 x 90
1x180
1 x 270
1x 360
Straight leg dead lift... this ones fun... 3 x8
1 x bar
1 x 90
2 x 110 felt a little tingle from the squat attempt, but nothing serious
Leg extensions 3 x8
1 x 90
1x 100
1x 110 not too bad, got a little tough near the end
hamstring curls 4 x8
1 x 90
3 x 110 same as extensions.. took a little gritting of the teeth
I felt great this morning. I didn't struggle too bad. It would still be great with a spotter.
On another note, just to gripe a little. Why on earth would you do a super set whilst sitting inside the leg press machine. I walked up and saw this guy doing incline DB press... and I thought to myself, I've never seen an incline bench over there... oh wait... thats the leg press machine itself. Where are the staff or where is he getting his information. Talk about risking a herniated disk. Good grief...

Wen't salsa dancing friday night. That was an expierence. I had a blast with the ol lady. Saturday was spent recovering from the sweet nectar from the night before. Sunday.... did a little mountain biking with Sandy. That girl never ceases to amaze me. Im serious.. She pulled up on her trusty trek to a good 4-5 foot drop (gnarly for a newcomer) and all she did was ask if she could do it. I said get after it if you want. She takes a fast second or two and bam, nothing to it. She did a little up and over a log across the trail, didnt even stop to look... I tell you I love this girl!!!!
Today at the gym, had to switch over to the hammer strength machines. I wanted to go heavy, did my first 3 sets on a flat bench, but felt a little uncomfortable about going heavy without a spot.
I feel foolish asking the guy with the newspaper camped out on the flat bench to get off his can and help out... I can't stand that. Or the couple that just stands there and talks for an hour... I can do that at home, or over coffee. Lots cheaper than 360 dollar a year gym membership being used to work on your "game".
Pushed hard on the last two on the hammer strength, and went ahead and stayed with that on incline. I strained all the way through to the concentration curls... Oh God... and my arms still spasming at work. I love it!!
3 weeks in a row now... well on the way!
Cheers

Man oh man.... I had the abdominal workout of a lifetime this weekend. The only problem is that it was an intermal workout... on the liver... with lots of booze. Navy rum... yum

Well, was at the gym this morning. Got in a good leg workout from an old friend!! haha Its composed of pain and mostly agony, but it works.
Squats 5 x8 with 135 and 155
Leg Press 4 x 8 with 225
Straight Leg dead lifts 3 x 8 with 115
Leg Extensions 3 x 8 with 100
Hamstring curls 4 x 8 with 100
My goal for the last 2 weeks, and successfully I might add!! (good for me), is to get up at 5:30 am and go to the gym. After that, I've just mainly been working on form and ROM. its all about form first. Other than that.. i feel like crapity! tired as all get out, with school and work. Works good though... just need some sleep...
