Weird, but impressive

My squats are getting pretty decent, owed in part to a chance in technique that is helping me from folding forward. No volume today.

I think this is a rep PR? Feels like it must be a rep PR. Which is nice, because I have not really been attacking these. More like carry-over from Rack Pulls, plus because I am so fucking fat now. Makes me feel better about yesterday’s bullshit, at least a little.

Lazy pulling day yesterday that I did not record. Today was just a work day on the squats. Need a little more depth on the heavy sets, but not bad.

Were you trying to puke on that last set?

5878

The last set of the flat or the last of the incline? The answer is no in both cases. I think this is still pretty low volume, but I like this kind of working scheme.

5879

The post i clicked on to reply to, was the post with leg press for 50 reps on the end.

Screw these forum updates. What a mess.

Oh, sure, I lazily did not check which you were replying to.

In any case, this was easier than it looked. The last 10 reps burned, but I was fine 5 seconds later.

Must be a rep PR at 190, but I didn’t enjoy it as much as 180 for 8.

I had to look up corpulent. I’ve never heard it before. It’s a fantastic word!

Okay, even I am starting to think this is pretty good. Did an actual complete 531 TM for once, maybe should do it all the time. And then still had a bit left for the seated stuff.
