**** NOTE: I took the last 2 weeks off lower body completely. All of last week I fully rested and did not train anything (and week before only did 4 days of light arms focused workouts with some accessory upper body training with dumbbells and resistance bands at home). ****
Back Squat 3x5
135, 135, 135
-> didn't go too heavy, feels ok - certainly didn't feel as light as it used to (when I could squat 225x4)
High Box Squat 3x5
-> not quite depth though (right about parallel)
135, 155, 165
Pause Squat 3 x 3 @ (3 sec.)
95, 95, 95
-> kept these light, felt good
Weighted Crunches 4x5
-> all on a bench with a 25 lb plate behind head
Core Isometric Holds 3 x (5 sec.)
-> (in weighted crunch position with body about parallel to ground)
25 lb plate behind head, 45 plate behind head, 45 plate behind head
Weighted Core/Oblique Twists 2 x (8-10 reps)
-> (in weighted crunch position with body about parallel to ground)
-> both sets with a 25 plate behind head
**** WEIGH-IN: 140 lbs Body Weight ****
(given that I fully rested and didn't train at all for the entire past week, I am happy that I did not lose any weight).
