9/7 Quads & Calves

Trap Bar Deadlift - 2 warms/255x6,265x6,280x6,290x10
Leg Extensions - 2 warms/65x10x2
Front Squat - 1 warm/165x8x3
Walking Lunge - 35x12x3
Seated Calf Press - 90x25x5

30 minutes on the bike @ level 3

Decided to remove back squat for the next 3 weeks and reduce spinal loading. Went with trap bar as my main exercise and am pretty satisfied with my open set, grip gave out so definitely time to invest in some chalk. Was thinking about going with back squat over front squat but decided that even though trap bar is basically a front squat from the floor I needed to give my spine a break for a few weeks. This prep is going to be a long one so trying to ensure it stays injury free. Walking lunges were a good finish, really worked on opening up my stride. Diet has been on point since the changes were made sunday.

Buddy of mine wanted to workout and do upper body so I moved chest to today. Workout was one of my best. Floor Press was a good change up from bench. Deciding to do alternating db press to get some more TUT. Kept a fast pace and finished up in a bout 35 minutes. My fiancee was sick this past weekend and I think this is why I felt so crappy last week, was probably sick but didn't realize it since it didn't hit me as bad as she got it. Explains the fatigue, tiredness, and decrease in strength.

Felt really run down by wednesday. Decided to scale back on the weights for the rest of the week, lots of early mornings and little hours of sleep and currently cycling off of stims. Got good workouts in and felt like I worked but didn't tax myself more than I needed to. Hopefully a good weekend of rest will help too.
