* I decided to max out my reps in one set and not do the 50% second set tonight. 18 reps!!! Definitely a rep PR at this weight!!! Great feeling right before the off week!!!

Plate Loaded Calf Raises

190/12,12,12

1 Legged Kneeling Leg Curl (Hamstrings)

50/20 right leg, 50/20 left leg, 50/20 right leg, 50/20 left leg

Week 49 will be the last scheduled off week of the program. Three weeks of training after that will finish up 365. I may have to spread some of the sessions out over that time due to holiday functions.

Have I mentioned that I am pumped about squatting 223 for 18 yet?

Happy Thanksgiving- see you next week at some point.
