Andrea, they are really seated calf raises. The machine I do them on calls them horizontal calves. And thanks for the support.

Today was my legs and shoulders day. I forgot the gym closes at 6pm today and I didn't have a chance to do shoulders.

Seated calf raises-
150# 1x10
190 1x10
250 1x10

Seated leg press-
250# 1x10
390 2x10

Squats-
135# 1x8
225 1x8
275 1x4

My legs felt great today except for my left knee getting a little sore on my second to last rep on the squats. My sore knee was the only reason I didn't do 8 reps on the last set. I've been playing basketball alot lately and my knee gets sore from time to time, I think I'm going to stop playing ball for about 2 weeks and see how it feels after the break.

My form was great on the bench workouts, even with the 60's. Usually when I get up to 50's it gets a tad bit sloppy but not today. Now I'm going to start bringing the weight down further then I have been.

Today was my legs and shoulders day.

Seated calf raises-
190 1x10
230 1x10
270 1x10

Seated uni-lateral leg press-
135 1x10
180 2x10
* The weight listed is the weight for each leg. This was the first time I used a plate loaded machine to do this work out. I actually like it alot more.

Squats-
185 1x10
225 1x8
275 1x4
* This was also the first time I did squats without the smith machine. I always felt safer with the smith machine, but today I said to myself,"What the hell..." I was expecting to be able to do no more than 200#'s, but I ended up matching my pr on the smith machine. I felt very comfortable doing squats today, however, I was only doing parallel squats.

DB Shoulder Press-
35 3x8

DB Front Raises-
20 3x10

DB Lateral Raises-
20 2x8

Sit-ups-
2x50

And I threw in a quick game of basketball at the end.

I think I had a pretty good work out today.

I'm back!!! I've been busy as hell lately. I only went to the gym once last but now i'm back with a vengence. Today I worked out my chest, tris, and calves.

40 1x8
50 1x8
70 1x5

40 1x8
45 1x8

decline bb-
175 1x6, 1x4

skullcrushers-
40 1x8
50 2x8

pushdowns-

My dips have decrease a lot over the last 2-3 weeks. I have no idea whats going on with that. I tried something different today, I read a post from HitManSE about the calf raise thing and dedcided to give a shot after me regular calf workout. This little routine is no joke. When I got to about 25-30 on each set my calves started to burned. When I got to 35+ it felt like my calves were being ripped out. But it felt good.
