Gray day today. That's fine so long as it doesn't rain -- got the Blazer outside with the top off.
Knew it would be a tough day today, so I got to it. Started with the usual Results (love that stuff) and Surge Workout Fuel (not sure if I love it or not). Spiked and Torked through the heavy sets. Love both of those, though ammonia does crazy things to me.
Wore loose briefs and knee sleeves. Did a lot of dynamic work and a whole lot of bar work to warm up.
Squat: close stance, low box, 5-rep max. These were really good. Paused on the box and released my hip flexors -- made sure form was solid. Low back felt one or two reps, but I tightened up and solved it. Hit 265 kilos, which makes me rather happy for this -- might be a PR for solid form 5-rep close low box (say that ten times fast).
GHR: This would be a lot easier if I had one. Used my kludged setup and hit 40 reps in one set with 75#
DB Lunges: 4 sets of 10 with only 40# DBs, because my left knee still twinges pretty badly with these. Might have to switch to step-ups on a bench with a barbell, because no twinges there.
Hip thrusters: heavy stone in lap, sets of 12, bunches
Stiff-leg DL from a 2" deficit: Only had 20kg each side, just to get a feel for hams. Kept feet close, strict form, reached until felt ham stretch. Kept low back very tight.
Sit-ups: whatever
All in all, good. Went pretty quickly because I was so gassed from the squats. I will get more videos up this week, so stay tuned.
Lots to get done today. Have a great day.
