    <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> </p>
    <p>How long does that workout take? 10 different exercises!</p>

    <p>Ummm first lift prob 540am and was in the shower by 645am so about an hour all up.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>I did superset some of the rows with the BB bench so save time that way</p>

    <p>The only good thing about a 5 day work week is the 2nd legs day. Been a while since I've had a 2nd legs session just two days after the last. Could be some pretty crazy DOMs over the next two days after this mornings efforts</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Warmup - 10mins ride, light leg extensions, roll, vibration machine (1min) then more leg extensions</p>

    <p>Lunges - @ bodyweight x 20 reps/side, 20, 20 each superset with 15 bodyweight squats super deep.</p>
    <p>Leg extensions - 15x42kg/side, 15x48, 12x54 then 50x36 (in 10s)</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Stretch and rollout + abs (decline weighted crunches, decline twist and crunches) to finish</p>

    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!"

    Did the outdoor session this morning and bit of a change from last few weeks with a few new tracks and exercises. <br><br>
    30mins of stop sweat pushing right to my cardiovascular limit. Highlight was a 3 min burpee ladder towards the end where ran a lap burpee then run another lap and two burpees and onwards. Ended up most the way through my 9 burpees. Was killer! Then straight in to abs!!

    <p>Legs this morning. Right knee felt a wee bit iffy so didnt go full noise on the squats but still making pleasing progress and feeling stronger.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Warmup 5mins ride then 1min vibration machine then light leg extensions, rollout and another 30 seconds on the vibration machine. The vibration machine is pretty insane in how quick it gets all muscles activated. I walk off it and my calves are just tingling hard from all the nerve activation. Really weird feeling - like the itchy feeling when you run and are unfit! Quite horrible actually!</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Squats - 10 x bar, 10x60kg, 10x60, 5x100, 8x100, 5x120, 5x130, 5x130, 4x130, 8x100</p>
    <p>Leg press - 15x160kg, 12x200, 12x240, 12x240, 10x270, 10x270, 30x120</p>
    <p>Seated leg curls - 20x66kg, 15x78, 15x78, 15x78 (massive focus on the squeeze and hold today)</p>
    <p>Seated calf press - 20x260, 12x340, 10x360, 10x360, 10x360 then dropset to faulure less 40 each time. Killer</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Finished with abs work and a good rollout and stretch</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Jumped on the electronic scales at home last night as use these to track body fat. They are not perfect and read about 1% low vs calipers for me but still showing at 12.2% which is pretty pleasing. Actually feel a bit leaner than I did when I took that pic in early Jan, yet slightly heavier.</p>
