Knee ability routine today. Switching what I was doing a little bit, reducing stress and frequency.  So it's less work, and taking out split squats for now which seemed to be aggravating my left knee a lot, and doing it 3 times a week instead of doing something every day.

Nutrition/Weight:
181.0 this morning. Coming back down nicely.

Wed 7/29/20 - OHP

Garage Gym
(OHP)barx12,75x6,85x3,95x6,115x4,130x3,140x3,115x6,105x6,6,6,6

37 mins 

Still babying my knees and today would have been squat, OHP, RDL's.  So, I just did OHP. Worked up to a heavy triple and overshot RPE. 2 reps would have been about RPE8-9, the 3rd rep was  9.5. Backed off to a set of 6 at REP9, then backed off again for sets of 6 until RPE9 again. Real good pressing for me today.

Nutrition/Weight:
183.0 this morning

60 mins 

Started with combo of inverted row, tibialis raise and DB triceps extensions. Next was Knees Over Toes (KOT) calf raises, curls and delt raises.  Then L-Sits. These are a bitch. Goal is to hold an L-sit for 60 seconds. Well, I couldn't even get my heels off the ground for more than a second.  So, I did 8 sets of 10 seconds trying as hard as I could to get in L-sit position with heels off the ground. Abs and hip flexors were activated and on fire! Lot of work to do here.  I need to find a progression to actual L-sit. Finished up with knees out and flexibility. Knees slowly coming around.

Nutrition/Weight:
184.2 this morning after week of vacation

53 mins 

Started with 2 count paused bench. Felt really good.  Last workout I did this I worked up to 155#s and did 2 top sets.  Today I went to 160# and did 4 top sets. Next was DB incline.  I planned to skip the warmup and do 3 sets w/ 60# DB's.  But first set felt pretty light, so I bumped up and did a set with 70's, then back down to 60's for 12 reps.  Good pressing today.  Then I did strength accessory work, leg raises and knee out for 2 sets.  Solid first workout back in the garage gym.

Nutrition/Weight:
186.0 this morning. Weight is high this morning because I ate a lot of cereal last night right before bed. Still feeling pretty good after a week on vacation.

Left knee has been really tight. I started with 4" step ups and knee felt good. Split squats bothered left knee right away. I did the 4x5 warmup to see if it loosened up, but it didn't so I stopped there. Then I did DB triceps extensions, lying on my back. Then DB rows and then 8 minutes of 40/20 planks.  I also did the flexibility routine.
