Leg day at home. My leg press machine is fantastic. The one at the gym stinks. I had a lot of knee pain till until I realized it's the commercial gym's leg press. The angles are all wrong.
I did a couple of things different. I used the leg press for calves instead of my stand up unit. Also realize my seated calf machine is way better than the commercial gym I go to. Somethings are better at the commercial gym like their pulleys. My dumbbells are better. I have two treadmills in my home gym. The good one needs repairs so the commercial Landice in the commercial gym is a dream surface to run on. I balked when a repair man said $550 to fix it my good treadmill. Needs a belt and a reverse the running surface. I guess this stuff is boring. Just pointing out that the commercial gym has some better stuff and some worse stuff than I have.
My knees are better and just about mint now. Maybe next week I will finish legs with no weight body weight free hand squats like I was doing for awhile. Fantastic exercise especially if you go deep and control the cadence to avoid flopping down like cross fitters.
I got about a two hour break and now I'm going to hit cardio. Nothing really hard on this leg day. Went from 192 to 186lbs in around two weeks. I want to continue the down ward trend. I don't know if I can but I would like to get to 171 lbs. When I was a sprinter in college I was around 160 and ended competitive running around 171lbs. My times were going down as working part time, full time school, girls and partying like crazy led to my times going down. Women makes the knees weak.
