Overall Impression:-

wierd session today. decided to do some new stuff.

Squats: fucking killer. yes, i have grown weaker at my squats. most unfortunately. i wish it were not so however. but im sure in a few weeks ill be better at this.

Good Mornings: damn, these feel good haha.....i dunno how the heck ppl manage to do these with 400+ lbs for reps man.....jeez....going all the way to parallel? damn...

Box Squats to Parallel: im not sure if im labelling this exercise correctly. please correct me if i am wrong here. the box (or rather the bench) was set low to the ground so that when i squatted onto it, my thighs were a little below parallel to the ground. well, my hips more like it. i have large thighs so i cant go by estimation of my thighs. yes, my hips were below (just a little) below parallel when i sat on the box. so i am calling them box squats. they felt awesome! i liked doing them a lot. i hope they pay off. im trying to find something which makes me do Ass to Grass Box Squats. the challenge is to find that next week. if not, then its 4x6 @ 200 lbs again.

Glute Ham Raises: yes....finally getting this!

Static Hanging Leg Raises: fucked my abs. damn....Andrew.Cook was right about this shit: Andrew Cook's Journal Post

Decline Crunches: i held the plate behind my head. it made the exercise a whole lot more difficult damnit!

Diet: everything is ok.

Overall: good workout. i need to increase my squat strength damnit!

hope everyone is having a good week. stay safe everyone and thanks for reading!
