JK vs BigRed

[MN5]

@JK said in JK vs 2016 - chasing BigRed:

Hit the gym with the wife this arvo and surprisingly enjoyed it.

We did legs so started with a short ride then a roll out and some mobility work.

Workout was leg extensions, lying hamstring curls, squats (wife used kettle bells, I did bat), lunges, straight leg deads and a few laps with the sled to finish off.

Wife tried leg press but appear to be too short to get the one we have unlocked and also tried hack squats as she not done them before.

She has a quad imbalance so has been told to strengthen quads and glutes. She has a PT at les mills but good to get her in to my gym for once and have have a session with her.

Dude there's other websites for this kind of information.

Pretty average workout really. Tried out a new pre I was given and was a bit meh. Real heavy on the niacin and not enough on the stim/focus. Means that if you take a double scoop to get the stim/focus benefits requried from it, you will also double up on the niacin and get a horrible burning type feeling. Meh!
