I think I get my heart rate higher than any other weight training exercise with walking lunges. And 55's are no joke. How long of a step do you take? You know that the distance of your step can significantly change the muscles used in the exercise. A general rule of thumb is that shorter steps focus more on the quads, where longer steps will have much more hamstring involvment. Glutes will always be worked.

I take the steps pretty far so I can hit the hamstrings. I don't know the exact distance, but it's pretty much as far as I can go, and then I go until my back knee just barely touches the ground, then push back up. I like them and I feel like I really work the hams and glutes good afterwards... But I can't forget about sldl's.

SLDLs are still my favorite hammy/ass exercise. I used to love Good Mornings but ever since I got hurt doing them I haven't done them since.

Not bad on squats bro. I think for the next week or two I'm gonna just do paused singles before my time off and then reset the routine again.

This shoulder situation is not good. I tried to do chest today but it was just disappointing. Started off doing DB Flat Presses. Went for 70's. Left arm shot right up and right arm wouldnt move. Went down to 65's. Left arm went up like air, right arm failed after 3. Not good. I don't know what I did either. So the rest of the time I did nautilus stuff to try and at least get a good pump in the chest. After that I could barely do 10 pushups. I guess I better let this heal.

Did you ice it? Take time to let it heal, anti-inflammatories if necessary, they help a lot.

Took a little time off to heal up, also worked out a few times but didn't get around to posting. Hit 160 x 6 on flat bench earlier this week. 5 more pounds for the goal and I should get it pretty easy. Anyways, I'm back

I know. But you should be the worried one, not I. I'm sure you can hit 6x165 easy by the end of the month. Just don't get hurt lol

Lat Pulldowns - 180 x 6, 190 x 6, 190 x 6
BB Bent over Rows - 135 x 6, 135 x 6
2 sets of 10, bodyweight pullups
Nautilus Rows ( Seated Cable Row) - 185 x 6, 185 x 8
Not bad today, but I would like to add more volume to my workouts. Starting next week, I'm gonna have a lot more time on my hands and I'm making a workout plan with more volume than what I've been using. Still sticking with the max-ot rep range most likely.
