THAT is a GREAT feeling Joel!!
Terry,my legs are actually feeling as if soreness is starting to set in.............especially at the teardrop muscle,no doubt due to the front squats as I haven`t gone that heavy in a long time.
Have done much more a few years back,but my back was in better condition!!

Have done much more a few years back,but my back was in better condition!! What's your experience with sissy squats? I did these a few weeks ago and really felt it in the teardrop muscle area. Even with the DC, think I might start using them. |

Terry,I like them.......used to do a few sets with just bodyweight at the end of my quad workout.
One of the stetches I do now for quads puts you in the bottom of a sissy squat position................good stretch to say the least.
I`m not doing them presently because I get a lot out of db lunges................had balance issues early on doing these,but now I really feel them throughout the whole quad/glute/ham area.
I`ll do sissys again after the show at the end of training legs...........always had a hard time using weight on these,but it`s not really necessary,especially if you finish off with them.

Tues. Aug. 29th.
Chest,Abs,Cardio:
Chest:
Barbell Inclines:
135-15
160-8
185-5
210-3
225-1
235-1 New PR **
200-5
185-8
160-10
Seems like a lot of sets,but the first 2 were light,2 were for only one rep,and the last 2,though pretty tough at this point,were backoff type of sets.
Since I stopped benching,my incline rotation training has caused a big jump in my inclines.I did 250 once in the early 90`s weighing around 150 so that`s 100 pounds over bodyweight.......gonna` pass that mark this time around.
Flyes:
45-15
60-10
50-12
Rotator cuff felt much better today!! #k0104ne#
Cable Crossovers:
4pl.-15
4pl.-12
3pl.-20
Cybex Seated Bench Press;
2 x failure with 140 pounds
On these I have the machine set so I get an almost impossible stretch in the pecs.............paused all reps for a good pec stretch,then did half reps from top,bottom,and middle positions until I couldn`t move the bar at all.
Abs:
Tri-Set:
{Rope-Crunches-2 x failure with 10 + 11 plates respectively
{Crunches-2 x failure
{1/4 Situps On Decline-2 x failure
Cardio:
35 minutes walking on inclined treadmill = 421 calories.
Good one......felt great,with lots of energy.
Right now I am eating complex carbs at Post-Workout only and still feel pretty good.......have increased fats a bit to make up for lost calories.
