Legs

Welcome to Toronto

For some weird reason my right glute is sore, not sure why only my left.  I know on the military press when you struggle your body on instinct tightens up all over, especially your glutes, I didn't think that'd be as true on handstand pushups but I got no other reason for my one glute to be sore, oh well I can still manage a leg day.

Ahh that's a painful leg day, mentally and physically.  I wasn't even sure if I was going to go for a heavy weight on the front squat, other than the squat clean no other lift requires more mental preparation from me.  But when I start I go all out, doing many many sets.  I started with 5 reps and part way through decided to drop to 3 as I wanted to test my strength a bit.  I kept making big jumps but when I hit 235 I knew it was close.  I remembered my 3rm is 245, so why not go for a pr.  I admit going into the 250 lift I was doubting myself, which is a huge mistake, but I psyched myself up and while my elbows probably did drop a tad I am pleased with the pr.  The second part was one painful superset my legs nearly gave out several times on the lunges.  Good leg workout!
