Day 385: My Squat Endurance Is Up!

G'day,

I'm onto Day 3 of the Five-Day Structural Quad Attack and really feeling it. Today I upped my time by another 5 minutes and completed 30 straight minutes of Barbell Squats.

Squat Endurance Is Up!

I started at 120 KG and lasted only 5 minutes at this increment. However, my endurance has increased massively as I still finished on 70 KG (the same as yesterday) and I also managed 15 reps on my Burnout Set which was 3 reps higher than yesterday (on the same increment).

All in all, I feel great about my quad progress over the last 3 days, however there is one area that is now starting to concern me a little. My pecs (and upper body) seem to have lagged a little due to the focus on my quads this week. I'm gonna have to address this big time next week!

My Ongoing Camera "Issues"

I had planned to upload my full Mission 4 Goal & Accountability Structure today but I spent so much time just getting today's pics done. Ever since I inadvertently "destroyed" my old camera on Day 360 I have been having camera issues almost on a daily basis.

Due to inconsistent lighting and focus problems it now takes me about 45 minutes each night just to get a decent picture (it used to take about 5 minutes!). I have actually just put in a bid on eBay for my "old camera" in the hope that this will give me the same consistent pictures as I used to have.

I gotta go to bed now but hopefully my current high bid will see me through the next 4 hours, fingers crossed!

Until tomorrow...

Eat Clean,
Shred Hard,
Think BIG!
