Lowerbody

Squats 3x5 215 lbs
-not too hard, could of used more weight if i was just going for 5, but this weight was good so i can kind of explode up, not too easy though.

Squats 2x1 235
-a little too easy for 1 rep, my damn sunburn was killing me though and i had to try lessen the weight on my shoulders by using my arms.

Stiff leg Deadlifts 3x6 135 lbs
-Was a perfect weight, feel a good burn with these.

Pulldowns 2x10,8,8 140lbs
-I did these in a semi squat to keep abs tight, felt a good contraction on every rep.

Pull ups 2x5 bw
-palms out, felt a good burn in back, kind of struggled at end though.

Standing Ham raises 2x10 25 lbs
-Hard with my machine cuz it doesnt move good but in the gym i can use a lot more weight. Didnt really get a good burn in the right leg, i did with the left though, its hard to find a good weight with these lifts.

Standing Calf raises with barbell 2x6 185lbs
-Kind of easy but hard because the sun burn hurt so bad.

took usuall pw supps
Overall rating 7/10
