Last Sunday was a Max Effort lower body day at Apollon.
I was feeling great after taking a down week, and it looked like I was going to need it, because the lift for the day was a suspended good morning with the cambered squat bar.
The height was set a little high, making it more of an arch back good morning. Warmed up and got under the bar.
Bar (50, I think) x 5
140 x 1
190 x 1
230 x 1
280 x 1
320 x 1
370 x 1
410 x 1
460 x 1
500 x 1
This felt surprisingly good.
I was really glad I took the down week because I felt great. I'm finally starting to really trust my lower back health, so It's getting easier to select exercises that really challenge it. I'm going to make a deadlift pr my next meet or die trying. Since I also hit an all-time pr in bodyweight today, it may just be both.
Finished with 4 sets of reverse hypers, 4 sets of the hip adduction machine, and incline sit-ups.
