Week 2 - Madcow5x5 - Day 4B
Squats:
5 x 115 5 x 145 5 x 175 5 x 175
These were about average, maybe a bit on the difficult side. I don't think my legs are recovering quite as well as I expected even with the drop of weight.
Press:
5 x 45 5 x 55 5 x 65 5 x 75
Pretty easy. Form was a bit off when descending and repositioning elbows forward.
Deadlift:
****5 x 145 5 x 175 5 x 195 5 x 225
Pretty easy. Did touch and go on the first rep, it was too light for me, so I focused on explosion from the bottom of each rep and performing them in quick succession.
Accessories:
****3 x 30lb Crunch machine - Using the machine felt very awkward. The back padding wasn't stationary so I felt like I was losing workout efficiency. I'm going to go back to old fashioned sit-ups on light days.
3 x 2 x BW Chin-ups - These were very hard. Felt slightly light headed after first set.
