41x12
46.5x10,8 - the weight jump is problematic since it's a little too heavy for this rep range but 41 is probably too light for the lower reps.

Morning BW 90
W8D1:
Warm up
Squat:
70x5
120x5
140x3
160x10
167.5x8
170x6 - I was very tired today and felt it on squats. Took 6-7 min rest and this set was still RPE9 when prev set was RPE8. Called it there and skipped last set
Landmine goblet squat:
25x5
40x10
50x8
60x6
60x5 - Yeah, the variation wasn't the best. Holding the bar wasn't comfortable enough. I'll have to figure it out better.
Single leg leg extension:
Found the way to do it perfectly on the cable by sitting on the edge of a slight incline bench.
45x10
54x10
63x10
72x10
Skipped RDL
Seated bad girl:
Figured this out in the cable stack as well by attaching each leg to opposite side cables.
27x10
36x10
45x10
Cable assisted standing ab wheel:
45x3x10 - This felt REALLY GOOD, and unlike the bands it will be much more consistent to implement progression. I'm confident using this I'll be able to get to repping out unassisted standing ab wheel within a few months.
