B-1-Quads and Calves (3)

Tonight's workout.

I performed my steady state cardio after my workout.(1 of 3) I generally don't like doing cardio right after legs and I'm sure I've mentioned that before but I don't want to double up on the steady state cardio and the intervals as much later on in the week. So, it was a walk on an incline for me on the treadmill.

I worked up to 335 lbs. tonight for squats. It's the heaviest I've gone for awhile. I'm sure I can do more but I still feel something in my lower back as I progressively go up in weight. I've been wary of weights I use with the squat since my little mishap a year ago. I'll go up in much smaller increments as I go along moving forward.

For the leg press, I went heavier throughout the working sets...working up to 630 lbs. for my final working set.

and finally, with the bar lunge, used 135 lbs. throughout all my working sets. Will try for more next week.
