A great workout
So I started back at lifting this week, it was supposed to be easy maintenance but that didn’t happen. Monday I did a chest and shoulder workout followed by 30min on the spin bike. Tuesday was going to be an easy high rep leg day finished by time on the stairmaster. It started as expected with 3 sets of high rep leg extensions. Following I started to do some explosive front squat only working up to 225lbs to keep it light. While doing this I was next to a couple football players who were doing cleans and high pulls. We all finished at the same time and walked over to the legpress where we agreed to working in with each other. The bigger of the 2 (Connor) kept adding plates to try to 1 up me because he outweighed me by about 40 or 50lbs and didnt want me goin rep for rep with him. This bein the shit I live for I called him on it and we went rep for rep over 5 sets workin up to 18 plates. On the final set, exhausted and way above the amount of work I was planning, I beat the guy by 1 rep. It was one of the best workouts I’ve had in recent memory the problem was I now had hack squats, and leg curls left, not to mention the cardio. I did it all and did 100 floors on the stairmaster. I then did just 30 min on the spin bike on Wednesday, a back workout with no cardio on Thursday and a 10km run on Friday. Needless to say my legs are fried so this weekend was rest and recovery. All I can hope is that next week I give just as much if not more. God I love destroying legs - the harder I hit them the just they keep comin back begging for more!
