10/10/2013

Back bb squats 135x10 225x10 315x8 385x1 Plate loaded hack squat machine (have no idea how much it weighs empty) 90lbs...go past parallel on these suckers, 10, 15, and 20 reps last set. Legs and more importantly knees felt great especially during the bb back squats, which i haven't been able to do for a while, but since the yoke squats the other week at torque didn't feel that back, i figured why not. The 385 for a single was the most i've attempted in squats for a long time. Pretty much have my training split figured out...

Oct 3rd, shoulders

Z presses
135 x 5, 3 sets

Arnold presses
35x12 3 sets

Db raises, front, back and side
10lbs x 15, 3 sets each

Tried to stick to some lighter weight, higher volume today. Hit chest Tuesday,  nothing major. Incline bb presses, dips, and db flys. Overall joints feel good this week. In theory,  lighter weights, higher reps and volume during week, heqvy events on weekend. We will see how this experiment goes...
