Trisets, Legs ,Disc 23 was the best yet...ok, I know I keep saying that with each disc. I must have had My wheaties yesterday because I was able to keep up with all my weight and even went up on a few. I couldn't believe that I was holding a total of 42lbs while doing wall squats. I was outside myself. This was a great strong day for me and a nice way to end Meso 2. I used to loathe doing legs and now that is gone! WOOOHOOOOO!!!

Lions and Tigers and Tri-Sets .....Oh My!!!!

I didn't have a chance to report in yet so I will now. Yowsa, I am really feeling the results of those low plane lunges now. They nearly took my breath away at the end. I don't think I could have done one more. I was doing these and thinking I bet everybody had their share of words for me when they were on this part, lol.

It was nice to have certain exercises make a come back too. Wall squats are always tough love for me.

This workout seemed extra tough for me compared to weeks past. It was hard to say why since I had a very hectic work week along with a lot of busy stuff going on at home too. But it felt good to release all that work stress.

I will miss tri-sets. I loved how fast they went and how winded I got too. This technique has quickly become one of my favorite ways to train legs since rehearsing it last year. It kicks butt everytime and never gets easier...Good Stuff!

One final workout left in this Mesocycle. I already did it today and it as not easy Have fun everyone!

Had a crazy week & am late posting about W4 Legs. It was a toughie! I could really tell the difference with the 80% weights! But I got through all the sets/reps.
I'm looking forward to Meso 3 Plyo legs, but I have to say I'll miss the trisets some. My legs have felt so much stronger & even though this week legs were hard, my legs did not feel totally wiped out, as they have in past weeks. I'm seeing a difference!
STS is great!

Default Wow - some of these were a bit on the light side.

My legs are totally responding to these triple trisets. I love them!! My legs are looking fierce too (even if ever so slightly!).

Boy oh boy - those low plane lunges. First set - shocker. Second set - better. Third set -0 OUCH! Haha - great exercise there!

I am happy to report that I did my stiff legged deadlifts on the step with the fully prescribed weight. I just make sure that I am paying attention to perfect form. I was able to do 96 lbs!

I finally was able to do the calf raises correctly with the right weight yay for that too!

Great workout - still loving triple trisets!!!
