That could prove to be a wise decision, if you like it and commit to it.

If we cut the program short it will be at week 4 not this soon…
. Strength will have to weight.
My romalos 2 came in today. Tried them on…wow! What took me so long in buying a lifting shoe.
After trying them on…I bought my son a pair.
Squat day is tomorrow. Can’t wait.

Good luck with the new shoes mate, it will be like night and day. I find the raised heal much better for lifting, for years I lifted bare foot or in flat Volleys but since moving to raised heals shits much more comfortable.
Put your new shoes on and crank up some metal and get a PR, seeing there has been so much talk of music on this thread, some of my fav’s for a good lifting session and guaranteed to add a few kg to any liftare listed below

Thx for the music additions. Will add it to my playlist. I’ll name it Tnation PR list and share when I get it done.
I can’t wait to lift in them. Been just screwing around the house in them seeing how far I can lean back before my toes come off the floor. They are like planting your feet in cement…

Now sexi tights pls
I draw the line at tights. My cock is too small…
Tnation or playlist is here… I’ll add songs as I find them …collaborative of course.
I’ve never considered wearing tights…until the foam rolling class Wednesday. We rolled a tennis ball along the IT band between the quad and hamstrings and it kept rolling up in my shorts. I had to hike my shorts up super high to work around it. The solution is tights. I still don’t own any. It’s just a thought at this point.

Not everyone appreciates the mastery of music they display. Those guys can play any style they choose…and would be amazing.
3/31/18–pillar squat + Hypertrophy legs
Pillar squat:
45x10
95x5
155x25
I used my new Nike romaleos 2 today. Umm…hell yeah! They are awesome…game changer on the squat! My big tall ass can sit back and stay balanced. Amazing!
Hypertrophy legs:
Squat:
165x15 (all reps done without stopping)
175x15 (same)
185x15 ( not this set stopped for breath at 10)
195x8 (really struggling to breath properly under load. Decided to live to fight another day.)
Ft squat:
95x12 ( shoes are even better for ft squat form. 
)
115x12
145x10 (gassed)
Reverse lunge:
20s x12x3. Getting the form better. Will hold this weight one more week at least.
I wasn’t in pure survival mode this time. Zero pukes were even thought about…
SS single leg. Curls/ extensions
25x10/35x12 x3
Calf raise:
110x20x3
All done. Much better workout than last week. Pushed some of the squat weights up and still was able to recover during sets much better. Legs are feeling rock solid. Really enjoying this squat add on. Dreaming of a 3 plate squat soon…
Enjoy your day good people!!!

You’re a glutton for punishment.
Steel is not tempered in an ice bath, but through the forge. To be a bad ass you have to push hard brother!
@MarkKO is a bad ass and he doesn’t do multiple sets of 15 on squat!
Thank goodness for me, because I have no desire for that. I’m happy knowing I can get it done with lower rep sets

Just a Hypertrophy phase to build some leg mass
