i can hit four reps with a 100lbs each side. triggers my knee badly. i'll get there, maybe next year.
I know all about the knee issues. I put my feet as high as I can on the platform. It takes more of the pressure off of the knee and quads and uses a bit more hamstrings though.

Hacks can be tough on the knees. In that case a great way for you to use it would be high reps and stay in the middle range of motion, about 90 degrees down up to just before lock out. Quads will be on FIre!

Think today was my last day. Governor ordered a ban on groups of 25+, no on premise restaurant and bar(take out/delivery only), 3 weeks of school closings.

A mate shared this with me - I respect Jeff Nippard's perspective on things, and his approach could help those who end-up needing to train at home (which could be many of us in the short term future).

I missed my cardio.

I'll go hit shoulders here soon. So long as the gym is open. Should be empty. Only the real will be there.

I have a feeling my gym is now going to be shut down by mandate until April 7th due to the statewide panic.

Mine has cancelled all classes. I'm pretty sure the next step is coming. :32 (4):

I'll be heading down to the Snake Pit is anyone wants a ride. Don't tell Snake we'll just show up.

Yesterday was the last training session. Gym sent an email last night that they are closing. All restaurants and bars in the area are takeout only now too. Shit's getting real.

Got hit with the same for reasons we both know.

For now my gym is still open. They are discussing closing for 3-4 weeks though so I expect some sort of closure coming.
