Lower Body / Leg Day 2/8/2025

Yes, it was a great leg day. I picked up a sample of a preworkout from Bucked Up .. to much caffeine for me but it sure pushed my energy higher. Let's dig into the workout:

I started with a set of light leg extensions, leg curls, leg press calf and bar only RDLs. Then I continued with warmups and hitting the heavy weights:

RDL: 135 x5, 245 x3, 335 x5, 335 x5 (+2)
Front Squats: 95x4, 115x3, 155 x5, 155 x5 (+2)
New LP Calf: +270 x6, +450 x4, +690 x8, +690 x8 (+2)

Single Leg Ext: 80 x5, 80 x5 (+2)
Lying Leg Curl: 120 x4, 120 x4 (+2)
LP Calf: 590 x8, 590 x8 (+2)

Hanging Leg Raise: 25# ball x20, 20, 20
Reverse Hyper 410 x13, 13, 13
Then 3 sets of knees over toes work and some hopping

I finished off with 8 sets of sprints using a 135 lbs sled and 13 minutes on the elliptical.

The prework seemd to add a rep or so to every set. Maybe that is just mental, but it sure did stimulate my mind and body. I don't plan on doing that often, but it sure was interesting.

My diet yesterday was on plan. I started with 0.3 oz of bison liver, 0.7 oz of oysters, 1 can of sardines, 10 oz of ground bison / beef mix, a tablespoon for MCT, and 4 eggs. Meal 2 was 10 oz of ground bison / beef mix and 4 eggs. Meal 3 was a smaller bison sirloin steak and 4 eggs. I had full fat yogurt and protein before early morning workout with a tablespoon of MCT. About 2 hours before bed I had more full fat yogurt and protein.

I did pick up some Equip protein .. testing this out. It does taste different, but it is super clean. I'll write more about it later.

I walked 13,847 steps yesterday. My weight was 182.8 pounds. My scale shoed some crazy faet number so that was odd.
