Training Notebook....10/5/07

So today was the first day of the growth phase...emphasizing heavy weights, lower reps, and adequate rest periods. As on every Monday with hit our legs today focusing on the Quads! *Leg extension (warm up) 160 x 20, 160 x 20, 180 x 20 *Hip Abductions (superset with leg extensions) 100 x 20 x 3 (with strength bands attached) *Leg Press (with strength bands attached except for last set) 5 plates(each side) x 6; preformed 5 sets adding a plate to each side, finishing with 10 plates *Step Ups 75lbs(each hand) x 6, 75 x 5, 75 x 5 *Leg Extension(burn out set) 140lbs x 30 x 3 (superset with step ups) And after all of this we had the bright idea to do about 300 meters of walking lunges around the outside of the gym. Needless to say my legs are NUMB after this workout! Just another day working out.
