Well this morning was especially dark and not cold. I thought about going back to sleep briefly, but then I realized that I had to still get all my stuff for this morning, and I would be late if I didn’t hurry. Well, anyway... the workout went smoothly for the most part. I have to get a belt though. I don’t feel safe anymore on squats. I am concentrating on the form of my knees; I was informed that I need to make them go out instead of in a little bit. Otherwise, I didn’t feel there 100 %. But it’s ok… a few more months, and I believe that I will be stronger... possibly moving if I can sell the house.
Prost
Squats
1 x 8 135
1 x 8 185
1 x 8 225
1 x 8 185
1 x 8 135
I really tried to concentrate on form. I felt like I could do more, but I don’t have a partner, nor a fine blue cowhide Inzer weightlifting belt like my cohorts now do I !!
Leg press
4 x 8 with 90, 270, 360 x2
I wasn’t feeling this lift today. I might start changing up with hack squats or lunges or something. What exactly does this work besides the intra pulmonary pressure?? I feel like farting out a lung.
Straight leg Dead lifts
3 x 8 with bar warm up
1 x 8 95
1 x 8 105
1 x 8 115
These felt really good. I like them
Leg extensions
1 x 8 110
2 x 8 140 New PR I struggled, but successful no doubt
Hamstring curls
1 x 8 110
2 x 8 140 New PR
I feel like I accomplished a little today. I want to finish this 6 week cycle up and then start mixing in something else. Maybe then start incorporating some climbing. If I can sell the house and move up to Austin, I might get me a membership to the climbing gyms. Who knows. Have a super day there buddies!

I'm not a huge fan of leg press myself, but they can be usefull. I find they come in handy for doing higher rep work and some variants of speed work. Don't focus on setting them up like a squat. Change up your foot placement (high on the platform, low, close stance, narrow...) and you can customize it to be several different exercises.
