Do you use the leg press machine with actual plates, or is there something different with cables? I was confused there... :confused:

[rcketsauce]

huh? there are cables used to raise the plates.... if that's what your asking.

[gcs118]

On the leg press machine it's usually a sled or hinged on a slant. I've never heard of cables so I was just curious.

8/31/04 - Tuesday

Leg Press: 3x10 @ 200 lbs
Tricep Press: 3x10 @ 100 lbs
Arm Curl 3x10 @ 50 lbs
Leg Curl: 3x10 @ 100 lbs
Rowing: 3x10 @ 100 lbs
Pullover: 1x10 @ 75 lbs, 1x10 @ 87.5 lbs, 1x10 @ 62.5 lbs (kept changing the weight because I wasn't sure what I could handle)

I'm seeing some pretty good improvements, but I can tell that I need to work a lot harder to see those big gains.

9/2/04 - Thursday
Vertical Butterfly: 3x6 @ 62.5
Row: 3x10 @ 100 lbs
Pullover: 3x10 75 lbs 1x15 @ 62.5 lbs
Leg Curl: 3x10 @ 87.5 lbs
Arm Curl: 2x10 @ 62.5 lbs 1x10 @ 50 lbs
Tricep Press: 3x10 @ 100 lbs
Leg Press: 2x10 @ 200lbs, 1x15 @ 200 lbs (added 5 reps from Tuesday)

For the most part some pretty good gains, I'm pretty dissapointed with the arm curl though. I had a real hard time getting that bar up for the last couple reps of each set.

My gf overslept, and she was supposed to wake me up... so i didnt get a chance to workout at the gym this morning. I decided to take this week off anyway, though, because it's been awhile since i've taken a good long break, and I need to get refocused.
