EXP 1 Squat DE + S Run - Mar 25

Okay, new 40 day cycle, focusing as best I can on explosive work with super-high frequency (10.5 sessions per 7 days, but we're on a trek of 4 ten-day weeks). Lots of variety compared to 531. Let's see how the homebrew tastes.

Buy in
Overhead Squat x10 @ 45/65/85
Wrists really needed the stretch.
8 mins.

Front Squat
95x7/115x5/135x5/155x5/175x5
Just establishing a 5 rep weight here. We'll start off at 115 next time and see how a top at 195 feels.
10 mins.

Cash out
3x12
Extensions @ 195
Leg curls @ 125/110//
6 mins.

Pretty beat up after Highland Games. The knee's very tight, and I pretty much hurt all over my right side. Was worried I wouldn't be able to squat today, but nothing hurt as much as that first set of prone leg curls. That felt like a knife to the back of my leg.

PM
10 Run up/Walk downs at Brighthouse Hill on 1.45. Knee felt great, sprints felt smooth, never really had a hard time breathing - even on a beautiful spring evening with the air chokingly thick with pollens.
16 mins.

5 hours - 2230/0330. 41 minutes total, PE: 7. 48 hours.
