10/12/12 BW=162.2

squat 5x185, 2x225, 1x255, 1x265, 7x230, 7x230, 7x230
bench 3x8x185
calf raise 90# 4x15
pull up BW 3x12
GHR BW 3x6


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?

basketball 2 hours
p90x abs
treadmill 1.1 miles

finally got to the gym to play b-ball today. I am definitely out of basketball shape + I am pretty sore so that didn't help.

^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! :D

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?

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.

I was hiting them twice a week, 3x12 on strength days and 4x5 on power days.  Those numbers were delusive though, something in this machine allows you to go very heavy, no idea what.
Also , above 350 it would become a little unstable , start making kranking noises etc. Above 400 it felt like it could break any minute, i was sweating with anxiety. Then i switched to SL calve raises, which are also very comfortable there, because of the massive machine frame you get very good balance.
