Jan 28 '25 - Iron Abyss
Tuesday Lower - Squats R Us - 6 day split test week 4
201lbs body weight
1680 cals headed to 3000
60 min cardio - stationary bike 17.3 miles 112/114bpm
In the timeless words of the great American Philosopher Ric Flair - " WOOOOOOOOOO!!! "
Today was all money , work load felt right , body felt good , internal timing was a little off so to speak , two singles I thought were a bit grindy looked good and faster than they felt on video but that's no big issue probably just out of air.
Hinge fired well , hips felt good , left knee is a little "puffy" feeling , like its got a bit more fluid than the right. Not going to sweat that , could be just old man'isms I didnt hurt anything or feel anything during the work out.
Dropped the belt for rack pulls ,that was fun.
We even got to reach a little for a couple of new silly and completely new PR's ?
