Tuesday 05/04 - Squats and SPRINTS!

Yeah yeah, I know. May the Fourth be with you and stuff. Watch out for Revenge of the Fifth. It's all very hilarious and I hear it about 20 times every year on this day.

I had a pretty good workout today. The strength is coming back and I felt well enough to finally do sprints, which is something I haven't been able to do in months. Until my Prowler arrives, I'll likely be sprinting two or sometimes three times a week. Normally I sprint once or twice a week max, as my Prowler workouts usually kill my legs and I can barely run after (in a good way).

Front Box Squats: 205lbs x 5, 215 x 5, 225 x 5, 5, 235 x 5
Front Box Squats (Myo Reps): 185lbs x 7 + 3, 2, 3, 2, 2
Leg Extension: 140lbs x 14 + 5, 4, 5, 5, 5
Hip Thrust: 185lbs x 10 + 3, 3, 3, 3, 3
Seated Leg Curl: 225lbs x 12 + 4, 4, 4, 4, 4
Cybex Calf Raise: 220lbs x 12 + 4, 4, 4, 4, 4
Standing Calf Raise: 400lbs x 11 + 3, 3, 3, 3, 4
Garhammer Raise: BW x 9 + 3, 3, 3, 2, 1 - My abs actually started to cramp up at the end.

Weight-wise, I'm already pretty close to where I was before the surgery, so I'm feeling pretty good about today. It's weird that my legs seem to be gaining strength back faster than my upper body at this point. I kind of thought it would be the other way around, especially with not having a Prowler to do on the weekends.

Sprints!!!!

60m x 8 - I was probably only going about 70% of my max at best here, since it's my first sprint workout in so long. Finished this off with about 15 minutes of lower body stretching.

Drink Powerthirst!
