Legs felt good this session, lots of strength out of the hole, but the last 2 sets were killer, i struggled to get the last rep on both sets. i'm still progressing very quickly, so we will see what happens.
Added good mornings to the mix, i haven't done these in forever, i remember doing these with 405 back in my prime...lol...i can't imagine doing that right now, 225 felt light and the reps were very deep and smooth. i might add weight to these in a few weeks, right now i just want to get my body used to doing them again.
In case no body noticed, i'm slowly moving towards a more "power lifting" style protocol. by the end of the year i'll probably be doing DE and ME days for bench, squat, dead and go back to my westside protocol...we shall see, things are going good right now and i enjoy the body building style workouts.
