Training Log: Entry 526
DE lower day
Speed box squats of 205
10x2
Notes: Lost a little strength at first, but did my best on the middle and later sets. Thinking of using some RE work on this in a week or two.
BB split squats of 135
3x8
Notes: New movement, trying to find form on it. Killed my quads even better than pistols.
Good Mornings of 215
6,6,5,5
Notes: This movement sucked so bad today. I think I'm doing too much bar on back movement on this day. Might switch to a deadlift deravative.
Stepped on the scale at 214lbs today. Pleasant surprise. My wife is way too good to me. The fact she puts up with this madness, let alone feeds me enough to keep growing is a testament to how good of a woman I got. Gotta work my grip strength more so that no one can take her away from me.
if you want a good low back exercise, try dimel deads. Take about 50% of your DL max, and go down only to about an inch below your knee caps then come back up with it, and do 20 reps as fast as you can with it. 2 sets.brutal.
ReplyDeleteoh about good mornings as well, I've read a lot of west side stuff saying they dont use them for max effort movements or at least not 1RM movements.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I've heard different things regarding the GMs for ME movements, and tried them out for as long as I can. Might give the dimel deadlifts a go. Thanks.
ReplyDeletea word of advice, if you do them right, dont plan on walking upright later that night or the next day :P
