LEGS, Saturday, February 12, 2005
Squats 8 x 45 lbs, 8 x 135 lbs, 6 x 225 lbs, 4 x 275 lbs, 4 x 285 lbs, 2 x 295 lbs, 2 x 305 lbs
Calf Raises 8 x 335 lbs, 8 x 335 lbs, 8 x 335 lbs
SLDLs 6 x 135 lbs, 6 x 205 lbs, 6 x 215 lbs, 6 x 225 lbs
Notes: Squats dominated me. I'm afraid my progression will stop next week these were so hard. Calf raises felt pretty heavy, but I nailed them. Probably stay here. SLDLs went well, I'm so glad I hit 225 finally!  Way too tired to hit abs. Good thing squatting takes care of that for me lol.

Ever try paused rep squats? Would be easy for you since u know where to set the pins. Just let the weight rest a second or two then explode up. Might help you keep gaining.

Pause rep squats sound pretty intense. I bet they're a great form of cardio lol.

They'll also build bottom end power too  . Most people can't get out of the hole and that's where they fail. Just a suggestion dude. Will probably do you good. Don't do sets of 10 lol, then it would be cardio

Thanks guys once again  And welch, lol they should never stop progressing! I've only had one plateau for squats (knock on wood) and it was relatively short. I'm afraid my luck may run out soon

Yeah, squats are awesome. Those are some nice numbers though, you going parallel or deep?

I always thought I was going slightly past parallel, but this big dude told me it looked like I was going too far down. I'm kinda skeptical to think that, but I dunno. I'll try and get my friend to tape me this weekend so I can find out for sure.

I dunno lol I looked at him like what the hell are you talking about. I always aim to go just barely past parallel. I started second guessing myself when he said that, but I'm fairly confident he didn't mean it

I see dudes load up the Smith machine (Yes, the feaking Smith machine) with 6 wheels and then bend their knees 15 degrees and call it a "squat." And they have the nerve to grunt. Cripes. I say keep doing what your'e doing.
