This wasn’t quite the workout my routine called for but since Jeff was doing this and he made my routine I decided to do it with him. I was pretty happy with how I felt while under the weight, I was slightly worried about that since I haven’t been under a heavy bar in at least a month. I had tons of speed on all but my last couple reps of 495. Sets of eights just don’t seem as hard as they did last week.
SLDLs were at the weight they were supposed to be at last week and I pulled both sets relatively easy without all the near-death-experience stuff afterwards. Leg extensions haven’t been in my routine in easily a year but they are now so I did them and they will cause me discomfort tomorrow I’m sure. I also skipped calf and ab work and opted to go for another coffee instead.
stinn are you guys doing the reverse squats same as deads ? green or blue band ? 0 at the top meaning the bar is trap height ? and its takes 170 on the bar to bring it to the floor ? how do they feel ?
zif
Yeah, we used the blue bands from the top of the rack. 0 means no tension at the top and 170 is the weight it removes from me at the bottom of my squat not the floor. They feel really good, I’ll probably try and toss them in every few weeks.
ya i didnt mean the floor , my hands dont alwAYS type whqt i want them to, haha , must be hte bacon
