Did squats first today. Then Calves. Then worked up to 1360lbs once on leg press. Thank God for the OH Shit stoppers! Second press didn't go as planned. Then pulled(actually felt something pop) in my right hamstring on the hamstring curl at 190lbs. So finished out legs on leg extensions. Prolly will be hurting tonight.
Been working back up to more weight. did 3x3 @ 225 just working on form. Im a little guy

Lookin good Nick, you make it look easy:thumb: Careful not to over extend at the top of deads. I found that it put a lot of tq. into my lower back when I did that. I try to hold a neutral spine all the way through to the finish.
Your link is messed up bud.
I like to use the Oh Sh*t bars once in awhile too... Gotta know where that limit is so you can F*ck it up next time

Burn Down, what does it say or do? I click on it and it goes right to YouTube. I just viewed the link form my wife's phone and it works.??
Nicks goes straight to you tube but yours just sits there trying to load for me? Maybe its my confuser. Today is my first day of at home, work has me locked out of you tube
something about watching lifting videos all day and not fixing machines... I dunno:hmm:Never mind it worked that time. I wish my leg press had a fixed deck on it. Hard to load it up when it tilts... I'll post a vid maybe next time I do them.

Was it a dude checking out your posterior chain?:drool::rofl:
If you need to do bicep work, your not doing enough back work.

Probably lol, and might be true my back is a beast compared to my guns, I usually do biceps and they still suck
I like the preacher curl rack with dumbbells. I go as heavy as I can and still get 4-5 sets & 8-10 reps, lower it until you can see the pocket of your elbow in a mirror pull it up until you almost loose tension, never let off the tension through 8-10 reps, last 2 reps should be about all you can do, if not adjust the weight. Try those for a month or so, my biceps blew up doing those.
I have tiny arms, but, all I do is deadlift :joker:
Lifted yesterday
Squats worked up to
5x405 <-- As usual someone asks how much I have left and then sits when I say two sets, always screws with my head. Pretty sure I did the 405 set at mach 2 speed reps. :rofl:
Rows, just went up to
5x225
Decline Situps, 5 sets of 15
Slowly getting back into, arms are weak as hell and my legs are very unhappy.

Then extentions and leg curls and calves good day, was actually pretty deserted for being the new year.
Back still isn't fully healed and I'm thoroughly bored with myself as I can't do much. Hope in a week or 2 it will be pain free so I can go back to working out

There were a few meatheads and one split tail at the gym last night. Oh and one couple packing a newborn around with them
Just take your time Brock... No need to rush back.
Got a nasty flu on Tuesday. Still went and lifted. 1.5 hrs of strict Oly Lifting... I love Oly Lifting. Been lying in bed for the past 2 days. Barely any food and definitely no lifting. Hopefully I can make up some work outs starting tomorrow
