It was a long day of standing with work today so that = my lower back being stiff....But I spent a few extra minutes going thru my warm up to get everything feeling more relaxed. Last day of the down wave and I cannot say it was a great squat session. It was one of those sessions where you get it done but your body is not firing on all it's cylinders.
After getting my squats out of the way I spent some time bouncing between my sets of romanian deadlifts and coaching some of the younger guys on how to deadlift!! Sometimes I almost snap when I see their form. The one poor kid was probably shell shocked, never seen him before but he was lifting with one of the regulars. Never asked his name just step away from the bar, I'll demo the lift and then I coached him thru with a few f bombs and some man handling. In the end I worked with both of them on their sumo deadlift and they were very thankful. Give a little...
The squats was all about concentrating on form and dialing it in.
It was a lighter day weight wise for the RDL's but higher reps, concentrated on tight form and exploding up. The front squats at the end just plain sucked ass, when I'm done a set by this point it feels like I just sprinted 100m...sucking wind thru my ass.
Now it's two days of rest with some cardio and core strength work.
Read the quote gym rats. That will be me next week.
