[QUOTE=Milton Brisson;1109054]Great work in here Nik! I see that you are making some real progress on the squat! Up to 340# now! Is this a PR? I remember when you were at 315-320 for the longest time, great to see the number go up like that![/QUOTE]

No pr yet. My pr is 350lbs. I have gotten an insite and now (so far0 can push alot harder.

A.M. warm up
11 HSPUs
20 GHDs
20 back ext
11 HSPUs
20 squats
20 kipping pull ups

rolled my back 2:00min
rolled piriformus 2:00min a side
rolled hip flexers 2:00 min a side

Left knee and calf sore, lower back a little fatigued from the KB yesterday I expect.

In saying that, I really want to train. Mentaly I want more, but it is my rest day and I keep battleing myself to rest instead of train.

10:00 break

daily squat
135lbs x1
185lbs x1
235lbs x1
285lbs x1
325lbs x1
340lbs(154k) x1

easy. The last rep at 340 was easier then the 325 rep. ( I rested the guts of 3:00min befor I did the last rep.

I'm flying! today is my rest day and I was not going to squat today, but I could not keep from it. Lower back was sore befor hand and I though if I just did a few lighter reps I wouls feel better. Well I kept goinig. Loved it. Back and everything else feel loads better.

Something about a heavy squat the kind of reset everything and everything feels better.

Happy, so much fun, so much fun.

I picked 8 reps for the last set and should have picked 10, I hit 8(tough but ok, little fatigued) and probably had it for 10 but stopped at my number. next time I will aim higher.

Great day. happy thanks giving all.

Ok so I worked out Thurs, then friday and sat I only went hiking with just martin and our dog abby, sat Cathy Martin and abby and me. It was fun and we had to climb over logs and under some as well. Good fun, but no real workout.
