Lower body

Thurs, 28 Nov 19

Squats: 135x5, 225x5, 275x5, 315x5, 335x5, 315x5
RDL (deficit): 225x3x5

Today's lower body session went well.  Squats were hard, but I was able to maintain a brisk speed.  My old hernia scar area is still causing me discomfort.  The RDLs were heavy - deliberately so.  I managed 3x5.  These were performed standing on a 45 lb rubber coated weight and 2x25 lb rubber coated weights.  Probably around 8 inches of deficit.  I got a real good stretch on my hamstrings and glutes and could even feel a bit of burning in my traps right out of the gate.
