As A Matter Of Fact....
no, i'm not going for some extreme physique shit if any of you are wondering. i'm just looking to train for a stronger, denser body rather than a buffed-up looking one. the reasons for such is rather personal and private, so i'd rather keep it to myself unless i actually blurt it out unknowingly. either way, no, i don't wanna get hyuuuuuge
That's Huge, But Ain't Nice.
Day 3
Deadlift: 100kg x 5, 100kg x 5, 100kg x 5
Leg press: 280lb x 10, 280 x 10

Dumbbell curl: 2 x 12.5kg x 8, 2 x 12.5kg x 8, 2 x 12.5kg x 8
Calf raise: 200lb x 15, 200lb x 15, 200lb x 15
Notes: lack of grip strength for 3 consecutive sets of deadlift and 4 consecutive sets of pulldowns. left arm failed on last set last rep of curls
AAR: maybe deadlift was easier last time with only 1 set to beat, but considering there's 3 now... damn. it IS a lot better for training my grip though. i don't think i'll be going up to 105kg for 3 sets anytime soon. lat pulldowns had a lot of space for more weight to be put on. next time round i'd try 150lb. my grip failed me on my curls towards the end as well. seems like there's something i need to do about it

AAR: My glutes, hams and quads are aching like hell now. can't even sit or climb up steps properly, thanks to the lack of lower leg training in NS. so much for RMJ. even my lower back got fucked from the squats. time to get my quads back to shape, though it'll be a lot bigger and out of proportion as usual
