So tonight I lifted angry. I wasn't planning on it, but after doing a very intense cardio session I went balls out!
Squats
1X10@135 for a warm up. I felt pretty good. Lots of explosiveness, and no pain in the knee. It was at this point I felt like going a little heavier ..ok a lot heavier than I normally do. So I loaded the bar with another pair of plates.
1X10@225. Hells yes! No pain. Ok so I've done 225 before but not for 10 reps, more like 6 reps. I'm not a heavy guy...just don't have the beefy legs for it. Any way I had a lot of pop in the thrust and was like F it lets do more.
3X6@275! This is definitely a PR. I felt so damn good. I mean it hurt and there was a lot of pain and agony, but It felt good feeling like I was going to pass out. Now I know that's **** weight for my size, but Hell I felt great doing it. After the first set I felt like the normal "Good job that was good....ok next thing..." but I was like ..."Hey Let's do this **** again!" and then did that shiz again! and then for a 3rd set!!! It pretty much set the stage for the rest of the lift. After that I moved on to deads, which I was like I'm going for another PR.
Deads
1X10@135-Felt good.
1X10@225-Went up rather cleanly and smooth.
1X8@315-again I've done this weight before but for like 4 or five reps, and to be honest I could have done more....I had that split second thought of maybe an injury....so I stopped that set. Going for PR baby!
1X5@405! Stoked to write this. I know it's **** weight for a lot of guys....eh maybe someday I'll get it up there to like 500 or something.... either way I was freaking pumped!!!! For the first time in this contest I've actually impressed myself.
Ended with some barbell split squats.
Splitsquats
3X10(each leg)@135lbs
Now I'm sitting at home watching She's Out Of Your League and Family Guy, and Enjoying some NTBM Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein and a little Peanut Butter thrown in. Stewie just dropped like the funniest line ever. While talking to Brian "So you can totally say no to this.....but....um....would you shave my coin purse?" hahahahaha soooooooooo funny.
Anywho....had a good night. Just ready for a good nights sleep, and a great day of volleyball in the morning.
Peace.
