I like to think iron Mike was speaking to life.

Tried to do squats at like 3pm, warmed up and got pinned with 270 and 260. Said screw it and went to dinner, didn't get back until after 10pm tried again and hit 5x255 super easy. Maybe eating an apple, two metrx bars and a baked chicken breast was not enough fuel before 3 pm?

^They had that machine at the previous gym i was going. Tried squatting a couple of times from curiosity, they felt very weird.
I did my calve raises there regularly though. For some weird reason i could go ridiculously heavy there. I ended up doing 400lbs for reps, when i changed gym that had a 'standard' standing calve raises machine with a chain i had t cut down to 150-160lbs if i remember well.
Useless info of the day, cheers!

My calves are weak. (Probably because I have had limited access to any kind of calf machine.)
So I don't think I will be catching up to you with 400lb reps any time soon. Good to hear that it will handle that kind of weight tho.
What kind of rep/set range worked best for you to build up to that vag?

that is a fancy piece of equipment. nice pick up. man, if i could work out at home...

Thanks. It took months of lowballing on craigs-list to finally score this set-up. With three kids I would make zero progress If I couldn't work out at home.

bench 3x8x185
calf raise 90# 4x15

Body feels good, still motivated to make progress. Picked up a Powertec leverage squat/calf machine to do calf raises as that has been sorely lacking since my return to garage weight work. seems like it will do the job.
I wonder how the squat function might work for assistance?
