Was kind of sore I guess... see the gripes below
Warm up with burpees, light thrusters
------Texas Method: Recovery------------
Front Squat: 3 x 3 x 185 -- FAIL. Felt too heavy for me to do reps after I did one. So just did regular back squats, which if you ask me, is more in tune with a 'recovery' scheme anyway. Honestly, this felt really heavy on my back too -- not so much during the squats, just at rest, on my back. Uncomfortably heavy... ugh
Push Press: 3 x 3 x 105
Barbell Row: 3 x 3 x 140 (Top of left thigh was hurting for these -- weird)
-------rest of workout--------------------------
Blasted the arms -- no need to detail too thoroughly, but basically an assortment of DB curls, preacher curling at max 85 (after, so kept under max), french pressing at max 75 which was too light bc that's still a high-volume reps weight and I can do much much more, cable pressing at 150 which is also too light to max since I rep 10 -- I can do the full load on these so should always work up to that weight... Did exercises in pairs/supersets with 1 bi/1 tri each.
Deltoid raises - variety
Plyo cable pulls for rear delts (some with full arm extensions -- lighter weight)
DB shrugs (90lb... couldnt find 100's and 110/120 seemed ambitious)
Finish: Tabata Situps (17, 15, 14, 10...doesn't really matter after that - lotta struggle, lotta cheatin... all good tho)
Weigh in: 174.5
This workout doesn't look good on paper but it felt great. Had heart going and sweat pouring the whole time... went from exercise to exercise fast and squeezed a lot of work into an hour pretty much even.
