Last night was legs workout, really good burn after I've begun adding "flushing" reps at the end of my sets. So, yesterday was:
Cardio 5 min - brisk walk 10 min - jog at 4.7mph
Weights 3 x 10 sets quad leg curls w/ increasing weight (195,205,215) then "flushed" to get blood going into thighs with 1 set (100) x 15. 2nd set was alternating 5 on left, 5 on right, until I got 10 on each. Seems to focus and squeeze a better pump this way. Thighs felt blasted and really good after this.
3 x 10 sets hamstring curls (95, 105, 115). I always feel like I'm on the edge of pulling a hammy, after I popped one last year, so feels like a heavy amount, but entirely doable.
3 x 10 sets standing calf raises with 35lbs. Here, I just grab 2 35lb free weights, feet about shoulder width apart and raise tippy-toe for 5 seconds. Rest about a min between sets.
2 x 10 sets calf presses. Weight was at 195 for calf pushes, done semi-fast. Hard to walk after all this leg stuff!
Dinner was an abomination with just a protein bar because my ex-girlfriends car wouldn't start and it snowed pretty good here in Colorado last night. So, I was near my RDI on calories for the day, but felt bad I didn't get a good dinner in!
