9/20

Quads and abs workout:

Did what was called for and made gains. The lower back was tight, so I didnt push it on the singles for the final set of the squats.
The one thing I am finding out for the heavy lifts is that I benefit more from doing more sets in between. For example, the spacing of the squats today were too much. Even though I am following the 531, I am thinking doing a 40 pound jump is too much for the body to adjust when dealing with heavy weight. I would have benefited by doing a set with 375.
I will continue the 531, but will change the percentages to fit my needs.

Squat: 4 warms, 315/5 355/3 395/1,1
Walking db lunge: 2 warms, 80/6,6 drop set
Leg Ext: 1 warms, 80/12 85/11
Squat ss: 135x2
with Leg press: 225 225
Ab work: 5 sets

15 min cardio
