4/15/08 Lower Body Workout #2
Squats 5rm - 365x5
i was thinking about it for a while and while i was originally going to go for 415x3 again i realized that i was somewhat stalling out going for 3rm and so i decided to switch it up and go for a 5rm, i started with 365 this week and got it fairly easily so i'm going to work on building this up for a while before i switch back to going for 3rm. also, i made sure to have one of the trainers watch my depth on squats again (mainly b/c i am pretty much paranoid about making sure that i always go below parallel). i felt like i was going real nice and deep on every rep, and the trainer confirmed that for me. he told me that i was well below parallel on every rep so i was really pretty happy about that
Goodmornings 3x5 - 200x5, 200x5, 200x5
the squats didn't take that much out of me so i decided to go a little heavier on the goodmornings today, i got all of them with good form and they all felt pretty good in my hamstrings and back while i was doing them
Hyperextensions 3x10-12 - 45x12, 45x12, 45x12
i am not moving up in weight on these simply b/c i'd rather do them with a 45lbs plate than a heavier dumbell, so to make up for that i am holding at the top for longer at the end of each set
Leg Press 3x10-12 - 450x12, 450x12, 450x12
Abs 6 sets - done
Standing Barbell Calf Raise 4x10-12 - 185x12, 185x12, 185x12, 185x12
