Squats and Other Stuff

I actually did the inclined presses Saturday evening before going out with my lovely wife and meeting up with some old friends. A very nice evening. 

On Sunday evening before supper, I bounced for 45 minutes. Burning extra calories is always great. 

Today I'm scheduled for Squats but today is International Deadlift Day. To honour The legend Jón Páll Sigmarsson Jon. He was born on april 28th 1960 and his all time favorite movement was the deadlift. Therefore, we on the day, of his all too early passing - 16th January - We do deadlifts!!!

So today I had to do both squats and deadlifts.

Stationary Bike - 10 minutes. 

Leg Swings and Dynamic Stretches. 

Squats - 2 sets/8 reps/bar, 135lbs/8 reps, 235lbs/5 reps, 255lbs/5 reps, 275lbs/5 reps, 295lbs/5 reps, 315lbs/5 reps, 335lbs/5 reps.

Deadlifts - 225lbs/6 reps, 315lbs/4 reps, 405lbs/3 reps, 405lbs/6 reps.




Great training. Feeling great!
