SQUATS:
Bar x10 wide
95lb x5
(125lb x2) 12x
*I want to give a little detail on those 12 sets of 2. The point is to not rest more than about 20-30 seconds between the sets. Tonight, the first 5 sets were done back to back, no re-racking the weight and not more than 3 breaths between sets. Then I did the same with the next 4 sets. the last 3 sets I re-racked between each set, but only rested about 15-20 seconds between each.
SPLIT SQUATS:
*I did these with weight in the hand on the side of the working leg.
20lb x10 ea.
35lb x8 ea.
50lb x5 ea.
INNER/OUTER THIGH:
OUTER:
(55lb x10) 3x
INNER:
55lb x10
55lb x9
45lb x10
SEATED LEG EXTENSIONS:
(75lb x20) 3x

The squats felt really good tonight and the weight was moving well. The last 2 sets, my left knee started telling me that it was unhappy. No really bad pain, just a small twinge of pain on the way down. I'm hoping it won't be too stiff tomorrow. It didn't bother me with the split squats and it feels OK now. Fingers crossed we're good.
Frank is going to be switching up his programming because he gravitates more towards a body-building split. We're going to see if we can work something out so that we're doing similar things, but we won't be tied at the hip any more. As long as he can spot me when I need it, I'm good!
On a lighter note, I need to acknowledge Chat GPT because I'm having a blast making images for my blog lol. Someday, I'll be as muscular as the cartoon me. I think Chat GPT just challenged me. OK Chat GPT, I see your challenge and I think I'll rise to it.
I also want to give a shout out to the 37 people that read my post yesterday. It's an all-time record for me. Thanks everyone! Don't be afraid to leave a comment here on the blog, or where you saw the link posted. Engagement is a good thing!
