So Christmas Eve, was a good day at the gym, funny but more on that in a minute. Decided to add a new accessory, something I haven't attempted to do in like 15 or more years. So that was interesting, did them with a twist. Worked from 6am-noon today, was a good day. So... get to the gym, the squat rack was in use. Did a few curls just to screw around. Squat rack was still in use. We were like "Fuck it, lets go to the other gym, do the squats, come back here for the accessory I wanna do." So we did. Fortunately, the two gyms we have memberships two are about a mile apart, so no time to cool down really. One gym, primary exercise and one accessory, one gym, two accessories. So lets jump to some numbers, then maybe a bit more chat after...
Squats 135x8, 225 8x2
Depth and explosiveness was on point today. Going next squat session it's time to use more weight regularly.
Leg curls 100 3x10
*gym switch*
Landmine Lunges 45 2x7 each leg.
Okay, it's been forever since I've done lunges because they hurt my knees and last time I did them I came right down on my freshly scoped knee and was like "nope, never again" Then I saw Juji doing/talking about landmine lunges and I was like "shit, lets give that a whirl" Glad I did, it was great. Also, pissed I did because damn my legs are so toast right now.
Chinups, the goal was 16 reps in as few sets as possible. Did a set of 9 and 7. 9 chinups in one set is a new rep PR so I'm more than pleased with that.
No training on Christmas day, back with another bench day Wednesday so we'll see how that goes. Weight is at 313.4 so staying in the same era. Still pondering on a 2018 recap post tomorrow, dunno if it will happen but we'll see.
