Kicked the boxes back up to parallel and added some weight for my full working sets -- 275, on the clock (60 seconds rest), breaking parallel, with a pause at the bottom: 275 x 3, 3, 3, 3, 2, 3

I felt like I was going to die when I finished. No rest for the weary, though. Okay ... a little rest before the support exercises.

Pullthroughs: 120 x 10, 120 x 12, 150 x 10, 180 x 10 -- all very fast.
Ghetto reverse hypers (improvised on the preacher bench): 4 sets of 10
Leg raises: 3 sets of 10, 9, 11

I'm gonna be honest ... I haven't felt that beat after a leg day in a while. Don't get me wrong, I've been spent on max effort/PR days; but I just laid on the floor for a couple minutes when I was done because I was completely exhausted. That was fun.
WoW! Look at you..My boy all growns up

Nice workout!
