Sure, why not?

Really depends what your goals are though... but a little cardio is always good for general health.

Cleans still feel somewhat awkward. I get pretty much folded in half in hole. My elbows have hit my knees at times.

BW: 204.0lb

DB Shoulder Press
40lb x 8
50lb x 5
60lb x 3

75lb x 3,3,3,1


Hammer Strength Lat Pull

Finally getting down in weight again. Stay consistent with my diet and I guess that's what happens.

A little disappointed with my shoulder press strength. Thought I should be able to hit a 5x3... guess not.

Friday November 9th, 2012

BW: 204.0lb

Hammer Strength Squat
mobility
"135lb" x 8
"185lb" x 5
"225lb" x 5
"275lb" x 5

"315lb" x 5
"365lb" 3x5
"315lb" x 10

The "" are because the machine has a pivot at the back and so I'm not sure what the actual weights I'm lifting are. That's what it would be if it were loaded on a regular bar.

Thoughts

The machine squats really focus the movement on the quads... and actually I think put more stress on my knees. Probably not a bad movement if you just wanted to build mass though.
