Squats
Bar x 5 x 2
60 x 5
100 x 5
120 x 2
140 x 2
160 x 1

170 x 2 PB!
140 x 8

Quite happy here. The last few weeks i have changed the way i squat from a real drop and bounce to a slow descent with practically 0 bounce. The plan is to match my PB like this then add a more controlled bounce once i become confident with this new style.


Bulgarian Split Squat
Each leg
40 x 10
40 x 10

Single Leg Extension Machine
Each leg
25 x 12
35 x 12
35 x 12

Not sure about these they seem to strain my knees a little.


Calf Leg Press Machine Thing
100 x 14
140 x 14
140 x 14


I'm liking how my squat training feels this last 2 weeks, i wish i could say the same for Deadlift.

645.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq		any reason for change in squat technique mate? You feel it'll help you get stronger kind of pausing it and eliminating the bounce?

Here's my Max with old style:


To me it looks like i have zero control after parallel. It would feel as though i was just dropping then praying i could catch it and come back up.

Now i'm really slow until the very bottom.

This doesn't mean i won't add the bounce back, i was told i used it very effectively, but i want to be tight and in control when i bounce Grin


Of course i could be over thinking it for someone who is still as weak as me.

522.5 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq		Meal of the day

2 Chicken breasts from the Barnsleys fine meat market with pasta mayo and cheese.

I put some green hot sauce that i have in the cupboard from my Mexico trip on the chicken and some chilli pepper seasoning so had a little kick.

Was good, this is my tea 50% of the time. Vegetables? What are they?
