Wednesday April 26 - Legs and Abs

Have you ever had one of those days where you just can't seem to focus and end up staring into deep space for 5 minutes at a time for no apparent reason? That's how my morning started out today at the gym. When I got there, I noticed that the Smith Machine I was planning on using for my squats was in use, so my brain just shut off. It took a lot of effort to not lie down and fall asleep right there on the floor! So, after a few minutes of that, I finally got going and still had a decent workout. Honestly, probably a 5 or 6 out of 10. I tried something different today, front squats. I must have been doing them wrong, because they really didn't feel right when I was doing them. So I'll have to study up on those before trying them again.

Here's the workout that I followed today:
Bent Leg Deadlift - Triple Drop - 2 sets, Barbell with 60/40/20lbs x 6 reps each.
Front Squats, Smith Machine - 50lbs x 8 reps, 50lbs x 6 reps.
Seated Leg Curl - Triple Drop - 2 sets of 160/140/120lbs x 6 reps each.
Seated Calf Raise - Triple Drop - 2 sets of 100/75/50lbs x 8 reps each.

Superset:
AbBench Crunches - 3 sets of 10 reps each.
AbBench Side Crunches - 3 sets of 10 reps each.

I'm going to start listing here some more of my weight stats as well as my workouts. I've been tracking them on a spreadsheet, but I'm going to start posting them here as well. So to catch up, here are the stats from the previous 3 1/2 weeks or so:
