saturday squatting at EFS;
Humbling.
Got there right before 10am, when there’s normally at least 5 or 6 cars in the lot. nope. im the first one. i remembered that back in middle school when we didnt want my sisters friends to come over we locked the doors, turned off the lights, and didnt answer the phone. ftr, she had told them it was too late to come over and they showed up anyway.
so i was relieved when Tate pulled in to the parking lot a minute later and things got rollin.
literally.
i foam rolled my back for the first time in 9 days. it. was. amazing.
also, i did some squatting. worked up to 195 before Tate called me back down to 105, insisting that i learn how to push my hips BACK and stay upright in the hole.
so, there i was, using 105 and putting effort behind it, while the guys next to me were using 800. i kinda wanted a pic of me squatting to a foam topped box while someone next to me had 800lbs on their back but i dont think efs is QUITE ready for my shenanigans full strength.
ive said it before and i’ll say it again; i wouldnt trade the first 3 years of my training for anything, because i like who and where i am, along with how i look, i just have a glaring weakness that’s holding me back- my hamstrings. im learning so much both with my head and my muscles and im such a lucky bastard.
after i got to put 125 on the bar and do a few reps with that tate told me to go do sets of GHR’s until i couldnt do 1. i didnt keep track of how long it took or how many reps i did total, but i started at 8 and worked my way down to OWIMDONE.
then 4 sets of 10 leg curls and i shut off the lights and went home.
the ego that is concerned with my numbers needed the hit, gotta keep that bitch in line and in perspective.
I’ve since had nap and food. now, more food. later, a movie and food.
I guess im hungry today.
