LOG: BACK TO BARBELL BASICS

6/28 legs B
Pretty damn good session and legs were pumped AF. I think I matched reps/weight on ham curls and I know I matched reps on leg press but with 5 lbs more. Not bad for 4 weeks out. Correction, -1 rep on ham curls rest pause set.

Seated hams rest pause
230x10/3/1

Pivot leg press(hi & wide, low & close, regular stance)
7 pps +25 x 15/10/9

Leg extension
135x17
130x16

Seated calves
45x30

6/30 push B
Had a nice little pushy day. I just switched log books and as I suspected after my first working set I was wrong about weight after looking back. This is precisely why I have one. Was supposed to be 315 not 295. Got more reps obviously and I supposed it didn't make that big of a difference in reality but it bothers me. I did add 5lbs on 2nd set for same reps. Incline hammer felt awesome and so did flies. Everything felt great rally till that old rear delt pain showed back up. If it happens again no more dips.

295x9
260x12

Incline hammer strength
2.5pps x 9/2/1 rest pause

The 3rd place in LHW was also last place(smallest open class in show) but everything else was good.

1st 40+ MASTERS
2nd CP novice c class (7 people)
4th CP.open c class (8 people)
And yes this show was fuckin stacked but that's good cause I really wanna know where I stand. And in that lineup even 4th im "content" don't confuse that with satisfied.
I'll get a few pix up soon.
