Legs tonight..

A good chest night the other night, just didn't get to log it and we're not going back - all about forward focus now.

Nice to put in a proper leg day for once. They've been short-changed way too much and it showed tonight. That's okay, as I'll go on to explain when I'm done with the log. First the goods:

Front Squats on the Smith:
*decided to try starting off differently tonight...
wu
90 (plates) x 8 x 5
*really felt my quads firing off here...even with such light weight by comparison (I have done more).

3 sets of hanging leg raises between to let my back calm down (oddly enough...lol)

Back Squats, sumo stance, paused 1 sec at the bottom:
135 x 5 x 5

2 sets of decline sit ups, followed by some hip and groin work.

That's it. I don't do a ton of stuff - hit the essentials and get out.

Now, for the "more explanation"
- 4 months to go to Carlisle and All-Truck. I really want to, and need to, drop BF% between now and then (I need it down for general wellness, in all honesty). This is a big goal of mine so it's time to really get serious. Driving home I thought "man, this is almost like the final cut for a BB competition, but I'm way fatter than those guys and won't be that lean..."...lol.
- One of my key goals now - DON'T GET HURT!!! Can't train if injured, so that's got to be considered. I'll push myself, but going to closely watch my limits to keep the injury bug at bay.
- My conditioning sucks, in a word. I was so totally gassed after this set tonight (legs gas me out anyhow but this was bad...). I need to start putting in a little bit of cardio to make sure I'm getting my conditioning where it used to be.
- The big thing is to reign in the diet. I am getting loose again, and that can't be. So when I'm ready to chew my arm off, remind me I have fish in the freezer.

OK, I'm done ranting - I'm out.
