Glutes & Legs

Here's today's lower body workout. BAHT style for Deads and Back Squat - total killer..especially with superset. I totally understand now why only 4 sets and 4 exercises.

Hip Thrust only went regular set going heavy and after did heavy set I even didn't have much energy to do burn out sets but still did. Super hungry also!

I managed to do 15 reps with 120lbs - very hard last 5 reps though. I had to paused 1 sec at bottom before powering up. I might be able to squeeze one more rep but my form might erode. Geez even 2 sets DL warm up already taxing my cardio.

Back, Shoulders & Arms

Did similar rep range/sets style as my Tuesday lower body - heavy weights with high reps.

I took weights that I usually could do for 8-10 and pushed through 15 reps. Only main lifts - did 2 warm up sets for each main lifts and 2 working sets - trying out BAHT style. Very minimal rest other than switching/loading weight plates and recording my sets on my phone.

Such a killer! Hammer Shoulder Press destroyed me. Same as Hammer Wide Lat Pulldown. BB Row - I think I might skimp the last 2-3 reps to get full ROM.

Glutes & Legs Workout (heavy weights - high reps)

Basically today's workout were taking most of heavy weights that I usually do 10-12 and pushed to 15 or even a bit more if I still could have some in tank left but still could execute in proper form.

So I tested BAHT style set for my front squat. Holy crap, burning like hell but I got to get it over fast too..ha! Looks like 75lbs is my 15 hard reps.

Hip Thrust killed me. I had to lie there a bit after the lift to get over my little light headed..haha. People around me might wonder what the hell I did.

First time trying Rack pull. It's ok. Better than nothing and i didn't feel like doing Leg Press today.
