WEIGHT: 180
SORENESS: quads a bit, hamstrings a bit
ACHES/INJURIES: fourth toe on the right foot and surrounding area, various shit was wigging out deep in my hips while i was stretching during warm up
MENTAL STATE: tired

- warm up

- REA squat 135 x 4,4
first time doing these in a while.

- squat 265 x 5,5
second set much stronger after a buddy pointed out that i was coming forward a bit. got hips more involved. losing focus is bad, maintaining focus is good.

fuck high reps, time to add weight. will try smith machine next time. i think i said that before but i mean it. tryna get that kingfish iso core strenf.

- sundry upper body pulls and pushes and back extensions

- stretch

really just did this to stay on schedule with my squats. first time working out two days in a row in a long while. not as bad as i expected. need to be gentler with hips and remember to do my SMR.

 

WEIGHT: ???

we are the same weight now. will be interesting to see where you're at with squats and jumps once you get back on the wagon.

Well I had a little mini jump session today while shooting around and I can tell you that my SVJ is about 30'' (barely grazing 10'), and DSVJ is about 31'' (touching the ring). So I have definitely lost height but not as much as I thought. Plus this time around it's less daunting because I know I've improved on it in the past. Squat has probably dropped a fair bit but again, I know I will get it up eventually. I'd love to be at your level with the same weight, I think that would give me enough strength to get up pretty good.

yeah for sure. i would piss my pants if i hit 30" on a SVJ, so at least you know the baseline is still pretty darn good.

word, difference noted. by back extensions do you mean on a 45-degree hyper thingy? like the top pic here:



or on a GHR machine?

No soreness/tightness/anything the next day after training, first time having that! Also was the first time i actually run again, so double-milestone, just wanted to share that!
   

 

nice squat. i can't help but think that one of the major things you have going for you is a really strong back. i don't think it's my legs that fail me on heavy weights, it's that i pitch forward.
