workout: lower-body p2w3a

Lowered the weight today and the knees, hips and lower-back felt pretty good. Taking the weekend off to rest and heal. Next week is the last week of phase 2. Ideally I would be testing max lifts for squat/deadlift/bench after phase 2, but since I’m pretty beaten up, I’ll skip deadlifts. I’m thinking that bench will go up, I’m going to shoot for 325 bench. It’s tough to do with no spotter, so I have to feel pretty damn confident that I’m going to hit the mark.

squat: 45×8, 95×6, 135×6, 165×6, 195×5 (two sets)
front-squat: 45×6 (three speed sets)
barbell reverse lunge: 45×5 (three sets)
leg extension: 115×12, 180×10, 205×6 (three sets)
