<p>Finished with 20mins on the bike. Legs needed it after yesterdays squats. Still feeling a bit tight</p> -
<p>Was short on time this morning so did one giant set which consisted of me just roaming around the gym banging up sets and reps as I felt fit. Was a bit of a laugh but gym was quiet so didnt seem to bother anyone. Reps were high (ie 15-20 range) and weights a bit lower than usual. Plenty of intensity.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Warmup was 10mins ride on the bike. Legs and ass still super tight. Should have rolled.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Giant set included 3 to 4 sets of each of: BB clean and press, front raises, leg press, bent over cable row, lateral raises, standing calf raises, weighted decline situps, weighted side bends, hanging leg raises. No real rest, lots of huffing and puffing. About 30mins all up.</p>
