Notes
-Solid workout to start my blog off. Stamina was good today considering this is 4th week in a row of heavier weight on the compounds.
-Squats felt great. Bent BB rows were funny because my legs were convulsing mid-set after the heavy squat work. Bent rows hit the posterior chain hard whether you can feel it or not. Tonight's workout reminded how they can significantly effect recovery. Bench strength was ok, though I was out of the groove on all sets.
-Dropped the volume on the big lifts and went heavier in squats on my first set then was prescribed. Felt good when warming up, so I figured why not. The whole point is to lift heavier weight, right?
-Going to back all of the barbell work off to ~60% on Thursday. I feel totally fine, but I know the fatigue this sort of workout creates.
