HOW WAS LEG DAY CAKE

here was my leg day. week one of the usual 5/3/1 but i have switched up my maintenance from triumverate to less boring but big, which uses oly maintenance work on secondary muscles for whatever the main lift is that day. it does maintain at least one normal maintenance exercise though which is nice and keeps things fresh.

the switch has been good as i have been sore for the first time in 3 months. normally i would do calf raises last but some dipshit teenager was "training" his girlfriend in the rack for 20 minutes. i debated murdering them both, especially when he went over and grabbed the preloaded 80lb straight bar to do bent over rows.

ANYWAY
