Legs

I trained legs this morning while trying to mix it up a bit. I am trying to stay motivated with my herniated disk in my neck and doing my best. Seeing the specialist today who should move me to the next Dr. to get a cortisone shot. I am hoping that it helps and fixes the pinched nerve.

Prisoner Squats - Body weight - 5 sets of 10 - 50 reps
Dragon Walks - Body weight - 5 sets of 10 steps each leg - 100 reps
Single Leg Step Ups (bottom leg never touches the floor) - Body weight - 5 sets of 10 each leg - 100 reps
Calf Raises - Body weight - 5 sets of 10 each leg - 100 reps
One Leg Deadlift - 16kg bell - 5 sets of 5 each leg - 50 reps

I did the above in a circuit with no rest in between in about 20 minutes time.

My weight was down to 156 this morning with 7.9% body fat. The fact that I have continued to follow the Anabolic Diet during this time has kept me lean. When I am better I plan to go back to a 40% carb - 40% protein and 20% fat diet for a month to 6 weeks to try to regain the 15 lbs I have lost from not training upper body for 10 weeks and atrophy.
