Rematch.

Mission: To blast the living heel - oops! I meant hell out of the legs. Repent!!

As said in previous post, I took to the gym in what appears to be post-xmas frenzy, intent on developing myself. This time, since my most of my upper body was in total pain over the last workout, there was little else I could do but squat. Too bad. :)

Here’s this time’s workout:

Swiss Ball Crunches 3 sets: 12/12/12 (no added resistance)

Full Squats 3 sets: 8/8/7 (100 kgs / 220 lbs)
Leg Extensions 3 sets: 10/9/8 (60 kgs / 132 lbs)
Lying Leg Curls 3 sets: 8/7/5 (45 kgs / 99 lbs)
GHR’s 3 sets: 6/5/5 (no added resistance)

Leg Press Calf Raises 3 sets: 12/12/12 (240 kgs / 528 lbs plus sled)
Seated Calf Raises 3 sets: 10/12/12 (50 kgs / 110 lbs)

Note: It’s weird. The calves are, that is. I mean, no other musclegroup of mine anyway behaves in that way; getting more reps with the same exact weight on the second set. It’s supposed to be the other way around! Somebody please tell my calves to get with the program.

    Calf work. Yes, I have vague memories of that…

    My favorite, actually. You can really kill them and they’ll rebound before the next set, even. :) The hellish burn… What’s not to enjoy?
