Showed up to a completely empty gym today. Not very motivating for leg work. :(
SS-bar Good mornings:
155 x 8
245 x 5, 5
295 x 5, 5
These were harder than I expected. I started off pins, but the ss-bar bounced too much so I help playing with the pin setting and for the last two sets, I just went free standing. The exercise felt ok, but I was feeling off on these.
Deadlift off blocks:
315 x 5, pain @ 0
405 x 3, pain @ 0
455 x 8, pain @ 3, effort @ 8
Wow, I had no pain on these for the first time in a lonnnng time. The 455 had a bit of discomfort, but was still very doable. This is a great progress considering how rough it was a few weeks ago. If i continue making 50 lb. jumps, i should be pulling 800 x 8 in a few months!! (j/k) I'll stick on this for one more week and then start trying pulling closer to the floor.
Superset
Zercher squats:
123 x 8
213 x 6, 8, 8
Shrugs:
315
365 for 3 sets
These felt great today. A little groin twinge on the second zercher, but it didn't interfere with the reps. Shrugs were done with a 2 second pause on top and until failure.
Finished with a super set of:
wide-grip pull ups, curls, and alternating cable crunches.
