02-28-2012 Workout

Today was a leg massacre….

Early AM sprints… too dark to measure and didn’t give a shit. My priority wasn’t distance, it was effort.

Did about 20 short distance sprints.

Really affected my squatting tonight as I haven’t sprinted since 1934.

There’s a huge reason why I am doing this, its for a good cause 😉

PM workout

Safety Squat Bar low box squats
155 x 5
245 x 3
335 x 2
355 x 3 x 2

Legs felt like a pile of ass from the sprints… didn’t expect anything good.

On the bright side, I did them.

RDL
135 x 5
225 x 5
315 x 3
405 x 3
455 x 2 x 3

Sled “sprints”
4 plates up and back 6 times…

On a rubber floor, legs shot… why???????????

Things I am discovering working out as often as I am is this:

• Overtraining is hard to do unless you are killing the volume by doing 85 exercises per session
• My legs are growing rather sweetly
• My back looks like the Andes
• If I can get my stubborn-ass midsection a little better I will approach respectable status

Not that I really give a shit about the midsection, but….. well you know… we are all a bit vain and the ones who aren’t are kidding themselves.
