Just another way to kick eachothers' asses

Let's see...
Yesterday I just did 50 minutes on the AMT and 10 minutes on the treadmill. Then did some planking and random ab stuff to build back up:)

Today I killed my legs.

I'm pretty sure I won't be able to walk tomorrow. Actually I'm 99.9% sure. And if I can? Well then that .1% is a miracle!

I woke up today and wasn't sore (I wasn't expecting to be, all I did was some light cardio yesterday) but my body was definitely like "yeah, you actually MOVED yesterday!" 
I was kinda feeling a little sick again :/ but I hit up the gym anyway. For legs. Oh yeah.
Let me tell you, after not doing legs for 2 weeks yOU WILL FEEL IT!
After the first set of squats my quads were cramping and I was like ohhh man, this is gonna be a long workout! By the end my legs were SHAKING and I barely finished my workout. When I was walking down the stairs I had a death grip on the railing because my legs could hardly support me and they kept feeling like they were gonna give out. Best. Feeling. Ever.

10 minutes on the stairmaster

3x:
Squats- 45lbs (easing back into things) for 12
Jump squats- 30 seconds

3x:
Straight leg deadlifts- 55 lbs/10x
Sumo squats- 30lbs/10x with 5 half squats

Close stance inverted leg press- just the sled for 15/70lbs for 12/70 for 12/90lbs for 10/70 for 15 
Did 5 half presses at the end of each set and then into 15 calf raises (still keeping things light since I'm just getting back into it...)

3x:
Reverse barbell lunges to balance- 35lbs/10
Jump lunges- 10 (Because that's all I could manage!)

Hopped on the treadmill- was only gonna walk for 5-10 minutes but I was on it so I was like what the hell:
5 minute warmup
10 minute hill intervals: 7.5 incline, 1 minute running 6mph 1 minute walking repeat for 10 minutes
5 minute cooldown

FOAM ROLLED! and home for fooooood:) pulled chicken w/ avocado, 505 salsa (MY FAVORITE!!!! OMFG), saurkraut (yes, it's delicious and it's good for your tummy!), saladdd!
