05 SEP 12 -- Squat

5+ day for squats.

After the usual warm up sets, I worked off my new training max of 395 lbs:

65% = 255 x 5
75% = 295 x 5
85% = 345 x 12

The last set was supposed to have been 335 lbs, but there was another member using the leg press machine and he took a bunch of the plates I would have been using. As a result, I added a little more based on the plates available and said to hell with it. It was a good set, nice and deep, and I put everything I had into that set.

Assistance work was simply one set of leg press with 720 lbs x 10 reps, and leg curl with 110 x 15 reps. I did the assistance work almost immediately after the final set of squats, resulting in a very good pulse raising workout.
