A Baker's dozen

Do you get anything from tai chi?

Yes! If I was more disciplined I would do it more often.

It has improved my balance and flexibility.
It puts me in a positive frame of mind and clears my head.
I find I am less sore (from lifting) if I do tai chi on a regular basis.
It helps me focus on my body as a whole system and makes me more aware of my breathing.
I find it refreshes me, gives me more energy and improves my mood.
I sleep better when I do tai chi.

Wow! I needs to be doing me some tai chi.
 
I may try that. Hey baker how many chins can you do?

Deadlifts RI 90 sec
5 warmup sets- 45, 75, 135, 185, 205 x 8
255 x 5, 275 x 4, 325 x 3

Back squats RI 3 min
5 warmup sets- 45, 75, 135, 155, 185 x 5
205 x 20 x 2

DB reverse lunges RI 2 min
45's x 12
50's x 10
65's x 8


Stretch



I was planning to do 3 sets of 20 rep squats but 2 sets was all I could handle today. I had to rest for 10 min between the deads and the squats but so be it.
 
Those are some good numbers you are putting up. 1 set of 20 rep squat is awesome as it is. Very very nice.
 
I know, I was saying just one set would be impressive.

Here is a nice manual.

The bar bending like that is incredible. It does it whenever I go for my pr on squats, but not to that extent.
 
NIce deads and squats baker. Why do you do such high reps?

I don't usually do such high reps on my squats but I just wanted to change things up a bit. Also, I have been feeling a lot better so it was a bit of a test to see where I am with my general conditioning. In a month or so I will do it again to see if I make any improvements.

It is fun to go super high reps ever now and then, and I believe the shock is goof for gains.
