Knocked out arms yesterday and was so pumped I could barely bend my arms or lift any respectable weight by the end.
Today was quads.
I like to start off with leg extensions, doing 10 slow reps, then 10 fast/regular reps, then 40 reps at the bottom of the movement keeping constant tension in my quads. It's crazy to watch the different muscle fibers ripple as you go through the range of motion.
Moved on to leg press, started at 3 plates per side doing 30 reps, 4 plates 30 reps, 5 plates 25 reps, 6 plates 25 reps, 7 plates 20 reps. Then did pause reps, 8 plates 10 reps, 7 plates 12 reps, 6 plates 15 reps, 5 plates 20 reps, 4 plates 20 reps and then 10 regular reps.
Moved on to hack squat and did 3 sets of the following: close stance, knees pressed together. 10 reps 5 second count down, 5 seconds up, 20 "half reps" at the bottom of the movement, then a 20 second hold halfway up.
Finished it off with 2 sets of single leg extensions, doing 10 slow reps, a 10 second hold, then 20 reps at the bottom of the movement.
All of these reps at "the bottom of the movement" are very small, maybe 6-8 inches of motion, it looks like I'm just bouncing in place but holy hell does it burn like a mf.
218.2lbs this morning. Last night was my first dose of MA Labs Somatozine, which I am logging.
