1/8/09 Legs

I was up early and feeling pretty good. The right triceps is still tight but it feels better. I am sure it is just a little overworked.
I couldnt sleep again so I was reading power to the people. A lot of information to take in, but I decided to start working in the 5 reps program, but I am still going to do several sets and I will try not to max out weekly, that will be tough to do in the beginning. I am also going to add in more deadlifting during my week. Right now I am only doing it on Fridays. I am thinking that I will try a Monday, Wednesday and Friday split and see how that works for me.

Started off with more stretching than normal, added in the new stretches that Carl showed me yesterday.
Here is what got moved today;

Hack Squat
180x5
360x5
540x5
720x5

Seated calf raise
90x10
135x10
180x10
225x10

Leg Press
180x5
360x5
540x5
720x5
900x5

Leg Extensions
180x5
270x5
360x5


Finished with stretches again. My quads were toast, I think from the swings and learning the new stretches yesterday.
