L-R-B Squat Cycle Week 5 – hardest session so far!
Just about managed all my reps and sets but am completely burnt out!
Definitely the hardest session of this program so far, it was made even harder by the poxy trains running 15 mins late and the fact I promised the missus I would get home earlier on Friday nights. What this meant was this session was completed in 25 minutes less time than last week, albeit I skipped the token calf raises at the end and I really was taking the piss with rest periods last week.
The increase in weight and reps with 25minutes less training time kicked my ass big time! I feel f*cked up now, shaking and sh*t, I really have to focus on recovery now (eating, sleeping (yeah right with my crazy kids), foam rolling and stretching).
Was meant to do some video to check form tonight but completely forgot as I was rushing to get things done in time.
