ygbodybuilder10:party:Well I decided to finally start a journal, I started these in the past but never continued with. I will not be making every day updates but will try to keep the journal up to date as possible. I'll also try to keep up with my reps because sometimes i do not even count i just bang them out.

I had plans to diet down and was dieting for 2 weeks from a body weight of 210lbs 1-2 lbs more. but diet was messed up while in California for 4 days so i cut that out.

First time in weeks i was able to do a real quad workout, because of my knee, and things went well, no serious kneed pain at all.

Leg ext- Started of with these to warm the knees up, also did both legs at the same time and i usually do one leg at a time, I feel doing a lot of one leg work might be the cause of the knee pain that i was experiencing.
These were high sets 20-30

2 sets with 45lbs
2 sets with 90lbs

Leg preses- Also did these with both legs when i usually do one leg
5 sets untill machine was filled. My gym leg press only can take 8 45 plates on each side and after that you have to stack weight on top

Barbell lunges- Havnt done these in while, at least not with weight
3 sets with 135
