Today's workout, full Lower Body plus a little forearm/brachiallis work.

-Leg Curls, heavy 6: 55,65,75x6, 85x7.
Backoff Set: 52.5lbs x 17+Partials +Iso Hold

-Squats, high bar, heavy 5: 95,135,185,225,275,315,335,345(r8/9)
Back off sets, 3@r8(8-12): 275lbs x 20,12,11(r8/9). The first set of 20 was absolutely brutal. Misjudged the weight to use, when I got to 16 reps, I said fukk it, go for 20. Took at least a 5:00 rest after that set, but didn't really recover, based upon the 8 rep drop the next set.

Deadlifts, 3x5+: 135,185,225,275 x 5,5,10. Could've done 20 reps the last set, but didn't want to push it with the back issues I've had recently. It was basically cardio at that point anyway.

-Leaning Back Leg Extensions, 3@r8+: 105 x 17,13,15+Partials.

-A1) DB Calf Raises, 3@r8+: 85lbs x 24,21,20.
A2) DB Hammer Curls, 3@r9+: 20's x 18,14,13.

Brutal workout, took about 100 minutes to complete.

That looks like an awesome workout man. Refresh my memory again what does "3@r8+" mean again?

 

[FlyingPapaya]

Fuking beast

 

[CJ]

That looks like an awesome workout man. Refresh my memory again what does "3@r8+" mean again?

3@r8+ means that I do the first 2 sets at an r8, and the last set to failure.

R8 means that I'm leaving 2 good reps in reserve, so I could've done 2 more reps if I continued that set. R10 would be max, couldn't have done any more. R6 means I could've done 4 more, etc...

 

[DEADlifter]

Dude! Squatting 275 20 times is wild. Brutal indeed. Good work man.

 

[PZT]

you can tell when people are going through shit when a set of squats goes over like 8... 15 they may be ruhtarded….. 20.... you guessed it. full blown tard. No ****s given

Noticed that many bodybuilders look fat after bulking or before cutting for a show.
