Some Squats and Deadlifts

17 July 2011

Today I had a squat session followed by some deadlifting. My lower back injury is still bothering me, but I am already at around 60% of my pre-injury weights and hoping to improve further in the coming couple of weeks.

It's going to be a long way back to decent weights, but now I'm confident I can do it.

(All in lbs., of course):

Full squat bar x 2 x 5,95x5, 145x5, 175x5, 195x5, 220x3, 245x2, 265x1, 285x1

High box squat 285x5, 305x5, 335x3, 355x3, 375x2

Deadlift 135x2, 225x2, 275x2, 295x2, 315x2, 325x1 (post-injury PR)

Leg curl 3 sets x 10

Leg extension 3 sets x 10

Calf raise, seated 3 sets x 10

Incline board situps 2x12, crunches 2x25
