Beginning Thoughts:

I was not supposed to workout yesterday because I usually take 2 days off before Deadlifts. But, I decided to go in because this November has been terrible for me in terms of training frequency. I've been skipping my workouts like none other. So I figure with all the down time I can handle a wee bit more frequency for one week.

Workout:

Pistol Squats:
6 + 6 + 9 = 21 reps
I really tried to focus on keeping my leg suspended (the leg I am not squatting on, ofcourse).

Pull-ups:
BW + 20 lbs x 3 reps
BW + 30 lbs x 3 reps
BW + 40 lbs x 3 reps
BW + 30 lbs x 3 reps
BW + 20 lbs x 3 reps
Total Reps = 15

Weird Ab Exercise:
BW x 4 reps x 3 sets

Side Plank Rows:
22.5 lbs x 30 seconds
27.5 lbs x 30 seconds
32.5 lbs x 30 seconds

I hope everyone's having a good week so far. Thanks for reading!

I'm glad you didn't try to suspend your other leg.... that would be called levitation and if you could do that I don't know why would be squatting anyways. lol

^^^ lololol!!!!

Levitation is out but you can at least work up to water pistols.

Beginning Thoughts:

I have had a very relaxing week. Next week exams begin and all hell will boil over.

It's also bitterly cold here in San Antonio. It's been in the low 40s all week and I hate this weather. One of the reasons why I chose Trinity University was so I could enjoy the warm weather.

Workout:

Deadlifts:
415 lbs x 1 rep (91%)
435 lbs x 1 rep (96%)
455 lbs x 1 rep (100%)
455 lbs x 1 rep (100%)
425 lbs x 1 rep (93%)
I got 1 more rep than last week with 455 and I think my form improved as well. I am looking forward to next week when I am supposed to do 9 singles again.

Weird Ab Exercise:
BW x 5 reps x 3 sets

Ab Roller:
BW x 10 reps x 3 sets

Thanks and I hope you're keeping warm. I'd be bundled up real good if I was up there lol...

Thanks, Pity. It was supposed to snow here today but nothing happened. It didn't even rain. It has been bitterly cold in the low 20s (F) and I hate it.
