JK vs BigRed
-
<p>They had one job!!! </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Getting back into that volume training, plenty of reps getting thrown down!</p> -
<p>Legs!!! And no problem with the 530am open today</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Warmup was 5mins ride then light leg extensions and a roll out. One of the PT's suggested also using the vibration trainer to help get all the muscles firing so did a 1min squat on there as well. Think it helped.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Squats - 10 x bar, 10x60kg, 10x100 (felt very easy), 5x120, 3x120, 2x130, 2x140 (not as deep as would like but happy @ 140), 5x120, 5x100, 10x60 (last two sets were pause hold at the bottom)</p>
<p>Leg press - 15x160kg, 15x200, 15x200, 15x200</p>
<p>Seated leg curls - 15x66, 12x78, 12x78, 12x78 dropset --> 12x60 --> 12x48</p>
<p>Seated calf press - 20x200, 20x300, 12x340, 15x340, 15x340</p>
<p>Leg extensions - 100 reps @ 36kg (sets of 10 per side)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Finished with some abs work and a roll out.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Seem to be making good strength gains at the moment and think its due to upping the carbs around my training. Still lean as fuk tho and weight not yet really going up</p> -

<p>Upping the carbs again this week. Body seems to be responding well. Feels like strength going up.</p> -
<p>With that amount of volume I'm not surprised you are feeling stronger bro. Had an interesting chat with my PT - he reckons 55 or higher volume is much more effective for bulk and strength than doing 53. He suggest 5*3 as the precusor to building up to a 1RM effort or a really heavy day with higher sets but low reps.</p>

<p>you are a sick bastard JK. Do people ask you about your programme and if you are training for the SAS!! :whistle:</p>
-
Yeah mate, can you even walk up stairs right now?
-
Actually doing just fine so far. But tomorrow could be different. <br><br>
Was actually talking to one of the lads this morning and he was saying how he felt like needed a change in his training. I said he need to mix things up and make those memorable workouts. He asked what I'd done today as I told him. His response "fuk that!" -
He said mix things up not get totally farked up (:<br><br>
Wish I had your commitment mate. Impressive stuff. -
<p>You be careful with those weapons mate, you know the fern takes a strong stance on gun control!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Same as RS, I could do with a bit of your discipline! </p>
