Madcows - Week 6, Day 2

SQUAT

Barx10

40kgx5

70kgx5

80kgx5

90kgx5

90kgx5

NOTES: A bit of a burn because I still had DOMS from squatting on Tuesday, felt tight and locked in though.

OVERHEAD PRESS

Barx10

40kgx5

47.5kgx5

55kgx5

61kgx5 

NOTES: This was actually easy, I'm super happy with this. This is actually a PR because the last time I pressed over a plate I weighed 80kg (and I'm still 75kg right now). I think all the incline DB work I've been doing is paying off big time.

DEADLIFT

60kgx5

80kgx5

100kgx5

115kgx5

135kgx5

NOTES: Back to pulling 300lb, felt good. I'm going to keep adding 2.5kg and will definitely be pulling 150kgx5 in the near future. 

DB ROWS

41kgx6 PR

41kgx6 PR

41kgx6 PR

41kgx8 PR

NOTES: Holy fuck this was good, the last set was just to test what I can do and I exceeded my expectations. Going to go for 3x8 next time with the same weight, big lats here I come.

WORKOUT NOTES: This workout was great, I've stopped thinking about finishing my top sets as success vs failure, but exclusively as effort/10. This is a much better approach because then I'm focusing on the process as opposed to the outcome and I can internalise my victories more which I think is more rewarding. This routine is heating up now, weights are getting bigger and I'll be hitting PRs on everything consistently soon.
