Madcows - Week 1, Day 3

SQUAT

Barx10

40kgx5

60kgx5

70kgx5

80kgx5

90kgx5

102.5kgx5

80kgx8

NOTES: Foam rolled for about half and hour all over my shoulders, legs, hips and back before this. Everything felt in tune and powerful except my lower back, either it is still fried from deadlifts or it's not getting activated somehow.

BENCH

Barx10

40kgx5

50kgx5

60kgx5

65kgx5

72.5kgx3

60kgx8

NOTES: The final set was actually not a breeze somehow, I think I had the bench press resting on uneven ground because my left arm felt super weird.

PENDLAY ROW

40kgx5

50kgx5

60kgx5

65kgx5

72.5kgx3

60kgx8

NOTES: These were easy apart from being a bit tired from squats, it is going to take me 7 weeks to get back to my old PR of 90kgx5. 

WORKOUT NOTES: I wasn't actually going to work out because I'm a pussy, then Ash told me that I should just do it and not even think about it; so I did that and this workout was phenomenal. It was one of those rare times when I could actually feel each movement and enjoy it during the rep, strange but great for correcting form problems in my bench and squat. Aiming to eat huge. 

Madcows - Week 1, Day 2

SQUAT

Barx10

40kgx5

60kgx5

70kgx5

80kgx5

80kgx5

NOTES: The second set felt great, I think I need to roll out my back more because it didn't feel switched on at all.

OHP

Barx10

35kgx5

40kgx5

45kgx5

50kgx5

NOTES: Could have felt better but considering this was the first time I have done this movement in two months, it's just fine. Got into a nice groove by the last set though.

DEADLIFT

60kgx5

80kgx5

100kgx5

120kgx5 DOH

NOTES: Felt good to smack out 120kg double over-hand, the last rep was not easy but that's probably a good thing. 

WORKOUT NOTES: Another week that started with 45 hours of work in 3 days, and it's killing my recovery! I don't feel too tired during the day but I just feel that little bit 'slow' when I'm working out. Will have to get some rest this weekend.
