10/ 25/ 12, Thursday/ Legday

I still did not want to put a bunch of weight on my neck(though it is feeling much better.) So today I went to the gym with the idea of constant tension in mind and also not resting long between sets, so as to not be able to use the same weights. If you have been following me long you know that my base squat strenght is so I can squat 365lb for 20 reps or more when properly warmed up. Today I stretched throroughly and then began my leg work with squats:

*The key notes for this workout are that I used a more narrow stance for squats than usual; I used the Constant Tension Technique (which is keeping the muscle tensed throughout the intire range of motion and never stopping or pausing); and also I only allowed about a minute between sets (which I usually do a bit more on leg day.)

Squat: 45-20 ; 95-12; 135-12; 225-12; 315-20 (I think)
leg press: 450-12; 630-10; 840-6
leg curl: 60-12; 90-12; 120-6
1-leg reverse lunges: 50's-6, 10
leg extension: 120-18
....and they were so tight it was stupid, and I struggled not to throw up.... Yeah Buddy!
