Double, Triples & Drop Sets

I decided to do some compound exercises for low reps with heavy weight. I focused on leg movements and whole body training (Goblet Squats and Double Cleans) to get the most muscles involved in pushing the iron around today. After 5 sets I dropped the weight and continued until 10 sets were completed.

My training looked like this:

Super set of the following -

Goblet Squats - 48kg bell - 5 sets of 2
40kg bell - 1 set of 3
32kg bell - 1 set of 4
28kg bell - 1 set of 5
24kg bell - 1 set of 6
20kg bell - 1 set of 7 -10 total sets for 35 total reps

Dead (from the floor) Double Cleans - 32kg bells - 5 sets of 3
24kg bells - 5 sets of 5 - 10 total sets for 40 total reps

I finished with a super set of the following:

Hanging Leg Raises - 5 sets of 10

Bottoms Up Clean - 20kg bell - 3 sets of 5 each arm - 15 reps each arm
24kg bell - 1 set of 5 each arm - 5 reps each arm
28kg bell - 1 set of 5 each arm - 5 reps each arm for a total of 52 reps each arm
