Fun night at the gym

[Scotsman]

Well the night went a little something like this.

Squats

bar x6
135 x6
225 x5
315 x3
365 x3
405 x3pr

Never done three reps without a belt and I haven't squatted over 335 in a year so new pr. Should be doing reps with 500 in about three weeks.

Leg press
700 x8
900 x8
1100 x8

Iso rows
300 x6
600 x6
800x10
800x10pr

Never been able to do two sets before that heavy

Iso pulldowns
300 x5
500 x5
700 x5pr

First two were pretty easy then had some help for three more

Shrugs
400 x8
500 x8
600 x8 plus a hold on the last one

Pretty good since I lost about three pounds from sweating in a tux at my friends wedding over the weekend.

Dinner
1.3 chicken breasts
1/3 of a box of rice-a-roni
1 large chicken burrito from q-doba

All in all a pretty satisfying night.

Cheers,
Scotsman.

Thanks everyone.

Becoming- I was squatting over 500 a year and a half or so ago so this is just me getting back in the game again I want to squat over 700 by years end.

why did you stop squatting? i'm assuming an injury, am i correct?

 

[Scotsman]

I didn't stop completely I just wasn't squatting heavy. Thankfully I haven't been seriously hurt in several years now. I travel extensively for my job and then work 12-20hr days, often in remote areas where gyms are difficult if not impossible to find. Also I moved and lost my training partners and most of my motivation for a while. Though i now train with my brother and have great motivation and some pretty ominous goals set so I am getting back after it and making progress like never before.

Cheers,
Scotsman
