When we met over the Christmas holidays, my part-time workout buddy Matt and had I planned to do a "Leg Day" later in the week at Planet Fitness. When I got up today I wasn't sure what to expect in terms of performance, because last night wasn't exactly a "by the books" workout prep. (Last night included consuming 1/2 a bottle of cheap Australian red wine during band practice late into the night...)
In any case, after a good breakfast and a couple of cups of coffee I was ready to hit the gym for our 8:00 session. We started with some stationary cycling and stretching then headed to the squat racks. I decided to take my time and do extra warm-up sets, so it went something like this for me:
95 x 10
115 x 8
135 x 6
155 x 4
170 x 25
I got this crazy second wind around rep 19 - I probably could have hit 30 reps but was kind of scared by how many reps I did.
The rest of the workout included:
Leg Curls 3 x 15
Hip Abduction 1 x 15
Hip Adduction 1 x 15
Standing Calf Raises 3 x 12
Seated Calf Raises 2 x 15
Stiff Leg Deadlifts 2 x 12
Hanging Leg Raises 1 x 10
