Today was leg day and it was my first time from vacation doing a squat workout. From what I learned from my first workout back from vacation I decided  not to push myself extremely hard so as to not get too sore. The workout went well and here is what I did.

Smith Machine Squats 1st set 275 for 5, 2nd set 295 for 5 and 3rd set 315 for 5. I stopped at 5 reps so I would not get too sore and break myself back in as well as to get my conditioning back.

Lying Leg Curls 1st set 115 for 7, 2nd set 90 for 5 *on the 2nd set I used super slow rep speed to really feel the contractions.

Standing Toe Press on Smith Machine 1st set 405 for 10 and 2nd set for 7

Oblique Crunches 1st set 55 for 10 and 2nd set 65 for 7

Lying Leg Lifts (weighted) 10 for 8

I also did 20 minutes of cardio and I felt good doing it. I did the recumbent bike and I kept my heart rate around 60% max. I did this in the morning on an empty stomach. 

My diet went well today however I am still trying to adjust. My taste buds are still use to eating rich foods. It usually takes me a couple of weeks for me to get used to the more plain types of food. 

Until my next blog!!
