Nice workout Mak, and don't worry about your squattin weight, just make sure you don't injure yourself!

^ thanks bro... yeah i'll keep that in mind - got me a lifting belt at last!

Nice, I'm still a bum and have to use the one's at the gym lol.

you're lucky - we used to have lifting straps and weight belts for borrowing but some bastards never returned them! always had to depend on my training partner for them but i aint trained with him since feb... i only just bought both items a couple of weeks back - now it's time to put em to use!

yeah, the first rule is never lend your personal things to anybody! by the way, great workout pal! keep it up!

hehe thanks bro... although i think the rules are as follows:

3 things in life you should never lend

1 - money
2 - your car
3 - your woman!

Excellent philosophy! And great workout too, Makaveli. The belt should help you squat even better.

thanks Dave, Amped...

Tuesday

Quads
Squat: 40kg x 12, 60kg x 10, 80kg x 8, 90kg x 8, 100kg x 7: couldv done 2-3 reps more but i was keepin my lower back in mind
BB Lunges: 40kg x 6, 50kg x 6, 50kg x 6
Leg Extension: 61kg x 12, 68kg x 12, 82kg x 10, 47kg x 10

Hamstrings

Wanted to do SLDL but i wouldnt hav had enough time and so i just did the one exercise
Seated Leg Curl: 36kg x 12, 42kg x 10, 48kg x 10, 54kg x 8

Calves

Tried out the new routine and my calves were pumped!

Machine Calf Raise:

- started off with doing 2 sets of 20 reps of bodyweight
- 105kg x 100 !!: utilising 5 rest pauses each lasting 5-10 seconds
- 2-3 mins of stretching
- 90kg x 20, 105kg x 20, 90kg x 22: by now my soul was burning!

Time: 65 mins
Result: Squats went ok but my lower back started to play up with lunges so i couldn't try out 60kg, also I wish i'd had enough time to do SLDL but i'll have to save that for next week... friday's the next installment of the calf routine
