Dynamic lower, 4-24-02...the pain...

[b fold the truth]

Didn't feel super strong when I woke up this morning. Maybe it was the thunder that kept waking me up all night or the dog scratching at the door wanting in...then out...then back in.

Wanted to increase the band tension today to test my speed limits. I think I did it. I wrapped the bands around the bar and extra loop to make it a lot tighter...wow...did it ever make a difference.

Box Squats
275 + heavy bands + medium bands (275+200+100+whatever the extra loop caused)
8 sets of 2 reps, 45 sec rest between sets

Pull Throughs
light bands x 12 x 2 sets

Band Ham Curls
double mini's x 12 x 2 sets each leg

Rev Hypers
BW x 8 x 3 sets

St Calf Raises
BW x 20 x 3 sets

That was it. Had a hard and intense workout. My calves were shakey and it was hard to stop on the drive to work...haha. It also felt funny to give it gas too..lol

Here are some pics:

7th set...on the way up. I swear...holding your breath does NOTHING for my looks...but it does make me stronger.

Almost a complete pull through...

These really work the hips, hams, lower back.

Can't quite place it....but that blue band looks familiar for some reason. Glad it is working out for ya.

Dont forget your two week deload phase before St Louis....gotta get the speed back.
