Nothing here, but a cool picture..
Weaknesses?
Well, it all started so nicely.Weaknesses?
A simple workout, brutal in it's design coupled with a pair of enthusiastic lifters is not always a good thing.
Squats - Max 5's
Deadlifts Max 5's
then
"Renegades of Squats"
115 pounds
1 minute, as many back squats as possible
1 minute rest
1 minute as many Plie Squats as possible (70 lbs)
1 minute rest
1 minute as many air squats as possible
1 minute rest
1 minute DB Deadlifts as possible
Repeat 3 times.
Well, to say my legs are f*cked, would be a understatement of biblical proportions.
That said: it's times like this that most would say "I'm never doing that again"...
I say, obviously I need to do them more.
It's a lesson learned..
Obviously, given my pain, I have been neglecting working in the higher echelon of rep ranges... Cause I can do max 5's, triples and singles till the cows come home with no after effect whatsoever.
And for someone who preaches complete fitness, this must be remedied.
So therefore, the "Renegades of Squats" will be now a regular addition to the SRX prescription. Hopefully, it does not go the way of the Dreaded Burpee and disappear from the face of the earth!
Needless to say, today's workout was about as productive hammering a nail with hotdog.
My attempt at sprints, and then merely walking on the treadmill was..um.. comical to say the least.
I am here, in pain, and I'm smiling...
Cause I found another kink in the armour.

Still looking for a location, right now, it looks like Oakville will be the area. We're hoping for a July opening, but we will see how it goes. The project is very much a go, just going to start working on a marketing plan and get some more people signed up...
The dream of a perfect "industrial" style of hardcore training/transformation centre, looks like it will become a reality.
