Super Day!
Wow don’t you just love that feeling when you come back from the gym and know you really laid it on the line for the day? I just got that feeling! Today was a legs day, and I think it is a universal thing for guys that we just don’t enjoy hitting our legs as much as doing our upper body. I decided that with my recent rededication to becoming as fit as possible, I would really start attacking my squat days. Today honestly is the first time in my four years of training that I have went all the way till failure. I usually get pretty close then chicken out one or two reps away. I got an amazing burn and pump which made me feel tired but terrific. Then after my workout I started my first day of training for that up coming 8k I had mentioned in a previous entry. Ran for time not distance today and put in about 45 minutes on the treadmill (darn the thunderstorm outside). My pace partner did track and cross country in high school and is a college volleyball player. Obviously she is in great shape and is pushing me to achieve what she is achieving. I kept up with her all the way today, but tomorrow is interval training and I have never been much of a sprinter. Wish me luck!
Also on another note, my stats on my deadlift and squats may seem like they are taking big swings as far as changes, but that is simply because I don’t usually go all the way to failure like I mentioned earlier. The squat should be accurate now because I went till failure today, but don’t look for accurate deadlift until Friday.
Keep fit~
