Run -- 6k, 40:18

Notes

Legs still like 7.5/10 sore, wow. Lesson learned w/r/t doing Q-L-Q + leg lifting, lmao. Will try for a session tmrw.

which running backpack did you get?

Osprey Duro 15. Love my normal Osprey bag and this one is kitted to the gills. Basically was the smallest one still big enough to fit work clothes + a light jacket in. It is basically borderline between a backpack and a vest.

* 2nd workout early today because of no work (memorial day). tried to see if there will be some tenderness after i get 455. everything was normal after. the 405 was explosive enough for me to give it a try. if this was 2-3 months ago, this tempo on the 405 will let me use 495 next. kept it easy this time to not break anything or accumulate fatigue very fast.
* been consistent also again with the use of the chest supported t-bar rows. this machine is almost always not in use and the cable station is the opposite. found the best way to use it without crushing my upperbody. i have to support my weight on my belly and also put a leading foot on the floor. i'm tall enough to use it while standing. 80-90lb is perfect weight for not crushing my upperbody. i can do a complete ROM with pause for up to 135 (3x45lb) but i feel like my guts are getting mashed on every rep.

Bodyweight: 91.1 kg (+0.3 kg)
Exhaustion level: 9/10

Comments:

Heaviest squat (120kg) since December, could have done 2, possibly 3. Neck pain is there and it's bad. Bench was good because I did 10 sets of 3 (last set was as many reps as possible), let's see what happens the next time when I'll do 3 sets of 10. Refrained from doing the 3rd set in the squat. Overall a great training session.
