HORRIBLE Leg day - and a cool announcement!
K, before I confess how horrible leg day went, Here’s the announcement: I got my husband to sign up on bodyspace finally! His profile is at http://bodyspace.bodybuilding.com/oceanofapathy/ .. so feel free to add him and give him some encouragement!
Ok, so about an hour before hitting the gym, caved in, and had a slice of lemon poppyseed bread. Problem being, of course, that I’m allergic to wheat
I felt like crap when I got to the gym. Brain fog, really tired, and just generally crappy.
So of course, I made next to no gains this week.
Worse yet, I maxed out so bad on the first rep of my 3rd set of leg press, that I almost had to quit at that point. Talked to the gym owner for a few mins - he tried to make me feel better, said I was posting great numbers, blah blah.. but in the end, I was too mad about it to leave the gym, and made myself bang out the last set. I haven’t had to skip ANY sets yet, I really didn’t like the idea of starting now.
So, here’s the results:
Leg Extensions:
First week: 70/85/100/115
Second week: 85/100/115/130
Third week: 100/115/130/145
Hamstring Curls:
First week: 80/95/110/125
Second week: 105/120/125/140
Third week: 115/130/140/140
Leg Press:
First week: 230/280/330/380
Second week: 280/330/380/430
Third week: 360/410/450(1 rep, failed, took a break), 270 for 9 reps/370
Ya know, as I type this out, maybe it’s not as bad as I thought. I just really felt like crap, and I really wanted to move more weight than I did. I was really upset by it
