Notes:
My weight came in at 208.1 lbs this morning, and today’s session was quads. I kicked things off with the Nebula OG leg press, then moved into the Cybex hack squat using a thin band. I primarily use the band to protect my knees at the bottom of the movement, as the Cybex hack squat can be absolutely brutal on both my quads and knees without it. This setup allows me to still load an appropriate amount of weight while minimizing the risk of injury as much as possible.
After training, I spent some time foam rolling and opening up my tight hip flexors. Doing this post-workout on quad days has been a game changer for my recovery and overall mobility. I’m also considering adding regular bodywork for my legs to help release any knots or built-up tension. Last year, I wasn’t very consistent about investing in recovery modalities, but that’s something I want to prioritize more this year so I can stay loose, mobile, and healthy throughout prep.
Have a great weekend, family. Let’s get it
