Great workout....hadn`t squatted in years....I know it`s the Smith Machine but they felt great and I have to be careful since I have three bulging discs and arthritis in my lower back and neck.
Just gonna go rock bottom,close stance toes pointing forward,non-lock at top and gotta bring a decent 2 X 4 to the gym to elevate my heels.
Fucking new gyms.....what old school gym didn`t have at least one 2 X 4 or a milk crate laying around?
Had to skip calves as they were still sore from last Friday....I went a bit crazy on them ! ;D

I'm dying to try one of those new pendulum squat machines. Some have said they are great.

--- Quote from: oldtimer1 on April 20, 2024, 04:42:38 AM ---I tried drop sets after hearing NJFlex and you talk about them. Wow are my delts sore. Guess I didn't do them true to form because I took about 15-20 seconds between the drops. I wonder if using a lighter weight for all exercises in general and using very short rests between sets will accomplish the same without dropping the weight?
The way I used them were for delt dumbbell laterals. Started with 30lbs-25-20-15 and down to 10lbs. 10lbs felt heavy at the end, lol after the series. Wonder if anyone ever did drop sets for everything? It would be brutal. I could see using it with biceps too.

I tried the drop set for every exercise/every body part workouts for a while. It's fun for a bit but it gets overwhelming fast. Great pump though.
