A change of goals

Well, as the heading states, it is time to change my workouts some as I am leaning toward maximum fat burn and quality of muscle now. So, here is my first installment, dreaded leg day. I did not even do squats today as you may notice.

Legs...
leg presses (feet very low and together, these are for good quad sweep)...10x450,7x540,8x540,6x595
Leg presses (feet medium height and shoulder width)...10x590,10x590
Leg extensions...10x95,9x100,8x100, supersetted with sissy squats using the smith bar for resistance...3x15 (legs burning now boy!)
Leg curls...12x95,12x100 supersetted with static lunges...10x40,10x40,10x40 (the burn is immense..walking like a duck!)
Supersetted Abductors and Adductors..3x15 @ 120

Calves...

Seated calf raises...12x4 plates, 10x5 plates,8x5 plates+25
supersetted with standing toe raises
Calves off leg press....15x400,15x415

Head for the recovery drink. I would have run if I could have! Legs are still a bit quivery even now typing this. Very cool! Got to have great legs to have any hope of winning any contests.

Wait till tomorrow chest day...complete change, chest, back and shoulders. Massive superset day.

    Pass my best wishes on to sandy, aging parents/sick parents are very hard on a person. I hope she is taking care of herself, as well. Good luck, whether you do Nov or Mar., my eye is on April now, but don't hold your breath. I always start strong and peter out. I am doing a lot of 'inner' work to combat that lack of follow through, so this time seems more likely to happen. I guess I realy need to say "I AM doing it, instead of I am TRYING to do it," I wish I had your confidence in the process. I hope someday to be as tuned in to my body as you are to yours.

    You are not eavesdropping. That is what the logs are for, others to look at. I am seeing what kind of condition I am in for Nov. 8, if ready there is one I want to do. I have been kind of slowly going at this one, many factors involved here against it. If not, then probably not till March. Sandy's mom is one of the big ones. She has terminal cancer, and it is really getting bad. They gave her 6 months, but I don't know if she will last that long. This contest I want to do is a couple hundred miles away, and don't really know if we can be that far away from her. That is why Sandy hasn't been posting, she has been taking care of her mom. Thanks for asking.
