Lower Body Repetion Day 2/4/05

Today was the most intense workout I ever remember having. It took all the concentration I could muster up to walk down the flight of stairs at the gym after I was done. My legs are still numb I got done about a half hour ago. It's all for my 315lbs full squat...it's all for that 315lbs full squat...it's all for that 315lbs full squat.

Deadlift (clean grip)
45 x 20
135 x 10
225 x 8
245 x 5 (bar slipped out of hands and crashed on floor)
225 x 6
225 x 6
I had to lower the weight 20lbs after I dropped the bar, my grip strength flat out can't keep up with my hips on this exercise when I go overhand grip. This is ok, I am trying to bust out more reps on this currently and use overhand grip to get more trapezius and forearm hypertrophy along with grip strength.

Good Morning
95 x 8
95 x 8
95 x 6
95 x 6
Um...I totally underestimated how fatigued I would be from deads and going straight to good mornings so I kept the weight lite. The weight didn't feel lite, it felt heavy. I thought I was going to vomit.

Walking DB Lunges
50 x 10 (20 total steps)
50 x 10
50 x 10
Haha...hm...I'm seeing double, is that normal? What's my name again? I took my legs and hips to the LIMIT on this one.

Natural Glute/Ham Raise
bdy x 6
bdy x 6
bdy x 6
I'm too endorphin high to feel anything. I feel good, do you think if I jumped off this bench I could fly?

Crunches
bdy x 10
bdy x 10
bdy x 10
Normally I would do leg raises. I couldn't feel my legs, let alone raise them. So I busted out some crunches, you know how we do! das riiiiiiiight!

Won't you join me tomorrow for the next chapter in Rev's Freaky Athlete Log when Rev battles the mighty forces of upper body repetition day? Tune in tomorrow to see what happens! For now, I'm going to go eat a crapload of chicken borritos I just made. Peace homiez.
