Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

today:

legs(not at my regular gym)
10 min treadmill warmup
roller work and stretching
lying leg curls 4 sets of 10 (warmups) 8sets of 10ss (i have no idea how heavy these were because the numbers were completely gone. i did 15 plates for 6 of the 8 sets though) very awkward machine
glute kickbacks on cable machine ss 8sets of 8 (no glute blaster machine here so i improvised) made my lower back tighten up like it was cool also
free squat machine 45x10 90x10 130x8 170x8 230x8 270x8 290x8 ds290x6 230x5ds 190x4ds 130x5 (drop set was done super super slow motion on the neg and positive really hammering them)
leg extension ss again no clue of the weights but about half the stack 3sets of 6 with a 3 sec squeeze at the top ss
sissy squats ss 3sets of 6
standing one leg leg curls 40x15 50x15 50x15
roller work and stretching

done for the day. ok, we did a recon and found the required squat machine for today's workout so i didnt have to try it with balancing a regular squat. the downside was that all the numbers were worn off of all the machines and they didnt have a butt blaster. either way, the squat machine was pretty sweet and felt 10x heavier than the weights listed on the plates. we tore legs up today big time even though i have absolutely no clue how heavy most of the movements were haha. knee fells pretty good and back is pretty tight but not painful. very very nasty pumps today

This was a great workout there is always a love/hate relationship with a gym you're not used to. The machines hit different angles, I love that. You are killing it and recouperating at the same time. Thanks for the detail in your log I constantly learn from it.

done for the day. got this session in in about an hour and 20 minutes. chest felt really good even though my shoulders and tirs are pretty sore and tired. got a really good pump and focused on lots of constant tension for the duration of all the sets. had my therapy session today and even though painful it went very well. we are going to evaluate next week and i may be done for a few weeks and then come back take a look at the area again to make sure nothing is building back up on the it band and the outside tendons that cause me so much pain. she worked calves and hams again today also so i will be nice and sore on my day off tomorrow haha.

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

I'm doing those SM narrow grip bent rows Wednesday for sure. Need new back ideas. Gonna look at that other back workout you sent and combine and modify the two.

tear it up man. it is a big time different feel for sure
