(stuff)

(You can read descriptions for all of these exercises here)


Morning Session (drills)

No drills today.

************

Evening Session (weights):

Thursday: LEG DAY!!!!!

Squats - 4 sets: 1 set x 12 reps @ 135lbs (warmup), 3 sets x 10 reps @ 405lbs
Calf Press - 4 sets x 20 reps @ 470lbs

Leg Extension - 3 sets x 12 reps @ 175lbs
SUPERSET with Leg Curl - 3 sets x 12 reps @ 170 lbs


HOW I FEEL:

Leg day... Oh, how I loathe thee.

Actually, I just plain hate it. That's why I avoid it whenever I can justify avoiding it... Sort of like my family (kidding).

The machine I usually use for squats was broken today, so I had to drop weight and go with free weights on the bar. And that's scary. I wouldn't say I have knee 'issues' but all my years playing sports and the subsequent surgeries that come from them have definitely left my knees in a state where they don't like bending to nearly 90 degrees with 500 lbs on my back, which is why I use the machine - it's not possible to lose balance and sway with the machine.

Anyway, I never, ever have a leg day where I don't have massive blood rushes to the head afterward, so I never run or do anything after leg day, with the notable exception of a nice hot shower. And cortizone.
