Damn, my legs are thrashed. Okay, lets break down the day. Work from 6a-8a for training for a new system. Squats at 10a. Back to work at 2p-9p to close. So pretty hectic day, but damn what a squat day. So, one thing I'm going to list, I'm not sure if it has a proper name, so for purposes of this I'm just going to call them half up full up. Basically, unrack, squat down to full depth, come back up half way, squat back down to full depth, then complete the squat for one rep. So, that was pretty intense. Today was a speed day, and in describing that at work, I know it's pretty common for powerlifters to understand when you say speed, you mean dynamic effort, but not everyone does, so there's a bit of clarification. Basically exert as much force as you can at 50-60% of your one rep max. So for example, squat 225 as though it's 455. Seems simple enough I suppose. Anyway, lets drop some numbers.
Speed squats 225 4x2, 245 3x2, 255 1x2, 265 1x1, 270 1x1, 275 1x1, 280 1x1
Half Up Full Up Squats 135 3x4
Glue ham raises 1x10, 1x7
Was planning on 2x10 for GH however that weird pop/pull thing I had happen in my calf on Thursday kinda sprung back up on me. It's not bugging me enough to want to get it checked out, could be a very minor calf tear, but it's up high enough that it doesn't bother me through most things. So that's nice. Anyway, enough for today. Bench training tomorrow.
