I failed 20 rep squats last night. I really just punked out.
My plan was 190 for 20 reps. Problem is, my gym doesn't have 2 1/2 lb weights. My wife and I usually bring them from home. I forgot them. So, being a tough guy, I jumped to 195 instead. And, like a tough guy, I only got 15 reps. I think I could have eeked out another 1 or 2, but I just didn't do it. Didn't have the drive.
The logical part of me is telling the angry part of me that it's okay. I had just hit a PR on bench, and didn't eat great the day before. I was a little tired, and I wasn't focused. All resulting in me not having a great session. I'm going to try again at 195 next week.
3/5/12 - Monday
Squats - 1 set
135x8 (warmup)
155x5 (warmup)
195x15
Bent Barbell Bicep Curls - 2 sets
60x8 (warmup)
80x8
80x6
All in all, I'm chalking this one up to just a bad day at the gym. Next time I'll do better.
PS - Notice how I've substituted biceps for chinups the past 3 workouts? That's called laziness, and I'm an asshole for doing it.
