i'v been struggling with a back injury for some time now but i think i'm getting bakc on track.

had my first full leg workout in a long time today. so here's how it went:

started with squats - wormup with the bar - 25 reps
then went up to - 60kg - 2 sets - 10 reps
- 100kg - 2 sets - 8 reps
- 140kg - 2 sets - 6 reps

front squats - 60kg - 2 sets - 10 reps
- 100kg - 2 sets - 6 reps

4 sets of walking lunges with 20kg dumbells

6 sets leg extensions - same system as squats but less weight and more reps (12 - 15 reps)

6 sets leg curls - same as leg extensions

it was pretty hard but it felt good to be able to complete the workout withuot any pain in my back, but i think my legs will be painfull tomorrow :xyxthumbs:
but it got me pumped and motivated. looking forward to tomorrows workout: Arms, oh yeah! :yardsalebroly:
