OVER 40 MUSCLE

Yesterday, I realized who my true hero really was. Check out my journal for the entry “Spiderman and a real hero”.

I was a little apprehensive going into today’s leg workout due to the unexplained pain I had last week in my left knee. I decided ahead of time that I was not going heavy. I wanted to see if the pain would return under a lighter load. If it did then I was going to get it checked out. Thankfully, today was a lot better. It was still a little tight but the pain was gone. I will gradually build back up to what I was doing but, for now, I am glad it is not hurting.

QUADS
Leg Press – 2 warm-up sets of 10 with 6 and 8 plates, 3 working sets of 10 @ 10 plates, 7 @ 10 plates and 5 @ 12 plates
Squats – 1 warm-up set of 15 with bar, 3 working sets of 10/7/5 with 2 plates
Lunges – skipped (more like chickened out)
Leg Extension – 2 warm-up sets of 15 @ 75 and 10 @ 100, 3 working sets of 10 @ 125, 150. Last set was a drop set, 10 reps per drop at 150, 125 and 100.

CARDIO
20 minute incline intervals on treadmill. Speed 3.8-4.0 mph and inclines from 1.0-6.0.

Tomorrow is delts and abs with cardio.
