Awesome workout today. I usually don't get the same endorphin rush from lifting that I do from a really good yoga class, but today I did, and left the gym totally energized. The weights felt totally manageable and even light on the top set of triples; they'd probably have felt light on the extra set of five across too, if I'd rested longer between sets.
Today's workout:
Squats: 45x5x2, 50x3, 60x3, 70x3, 80x3, 80x5
Front squats: 45x5x3
Seated dumbbell press: 20x5x5
Kettlebell windmills: 20x5x5
Well, I say "kettlebell windmills." I was doing them wrong. Apparently you're supposed to bend forward a little in a way that is exactly not how you're supposed to do triangle pose, so basically I was doing triangle pose with a 20-pound weight held over my head. I did a few reps after I'd gotten home and watched YouTube tutorials, though, so I feel a little better about my technique now.
