Chicken legs

Is it a good thing if your wife and mother are jealous of your legs? I didn't think so. For the month of May, I am focusing on leg strength. I will be doing leg strength movements every day with the ultimate goal of increasing my 3RM back squat by 30 lbs above my last recorded entry of 225 lbs and ridding myself of my chicken legs that apparently are very feminine, even with all the hair. I want speed skater legs or bobsled legs by the end of May. Let's make it happen.

Today's Recess:
3-3-3-3-3 Front Squat
10-10-10 Back Squat

Followed by:
5 ring dips
5 deadlifts 225 lbs
5 DB split-leg snatch 35 lbs (each leg)

Monday Funday

Tomorrow's Recess:

10 lunges (each leg) with barbell on back
8 back squats
6 OHS
4 Front squats
2 Muscle snatches--this is a snatch from the waist. If you're not familiar with the muscle snatch, substitute 2 strict shoulder presses.

AMRAP in 20 minutes.

I will be using 75 lbs.
