Woohoo Lisa! I don't think I have ever followed a journal of yours. Looking forward in seeing what kind of numbers you move in the gym!
Sweeeeeeeeeet!!! :D
thanks lisa for starting the 1st journal. it'll be exciting to watch your progress.
Ok leg workout
warm up with leg extensions 3 sets of 20 reps 40lb, 60lb and 80lbs just to get blood flowing
smith squats
10 x 135
10 x 225
8 x 275
8 x 275
then i did a power press moveement for a rest pause (this is where I set the stoppers on the smith unrack the bar and squat down until it rests on the stoppers i then squat down to the floor and come back up to the bar and push it up from a dead stop to the top and then down again) I hope that makes sense
this was done with 325lbs the first set was 6 reps then 20 sec rest then 2 reps on the last one you hold the bar and squeeze your quads as hard as possible for a few seconds then rest, 20 seconds later i did 2 more reps like this.
off to leg press for
10 x 600lbs
8 x 700lbs
8 x 700lbs
then added 70 more for the 6,2,2 rest pause workout
smith machine lunges one leg at a time for 3 sets of 10 each leg but oh my god my quads were smoking by these!!!
I then did 3 sets of inner/outer thighs
calfs consisted of a vertical leg press with toes on bottom of platform
this is pyramid exercise
10 x 150lb
15 x 90lbs
25 x 60 lbs
15 x 90lbs
10 x 150lbs
wow, you talk about ouch!!! I did two sets of this and crawled away lol
I am 23 weeks out from the masters and 24 to the usa's. I am currently weighing approx 175lbs with a lean body mass weight at 140lbs I am hoping to be a heavyweight this year but we will see. I all depends on how i look. If i don't look ready at the weight i am then i will get under the lhw cutoff. I look my best shredded and ripped but it seems that the judging has changed and they don't want that look anymore. So.... I am not worried because i have Dave Palumbo on my team doing my nutrition and have always looked my ultimate best every show he has dialed me in for.
Tomorrow is arms and i have improved them alot this off season and am very happy with how they are looking. At this many weeks out last year i did not have the definition i have right now and my shoulders are slightly strippy!!!!! I seem to have held my off season fat in my belly and god knows us women hate that but it is something that is hidden under shirts!!! lol
til tomorrow
Lisa
