Was a great squat day,
squat 135 3x10 225 x5 315x2 350,365,385,405. 405x5,5,5,5, 1 something popped on right side about 3/4 of the way up between knee and hip, racked immediately and hopped around in pain for a few minutes.
Transition to dead lift 310 but it hurt a lot so didnt continue
band leg curls
ab wheel

I hate when good days go to shit like that , rest up man hope it feels better

All I wanted was 405 5x5 so I can move on next week and it was smooth and easy. Based on my medical training in Grenada before the war I am diagnosing a strained or sprained TFL. We’ll give it a couple days and see.

You at a home gym Monsoon. Ready to cream in your shorts?

pos crunch does have like 2 cool machines,.... they are closing gyms in my neck of the woods. the pussy parade coming in to the gyms right now is just crazy...

 

[monsoon]

No machines at all, only barbells and dumbbells. I admit it would be nice now and then, especially a leg press to get some volume on quads when my back is unavailable.
I couldnt deal with the drama at a big commercial gym but would enjoy the scenery

my right leg was feeling better, no pain when not moving. I thought I would experiment today still keeping it light. Was planning full ramp but immediately dropping back to back off/ volume sets 3x315x3
However, I started to really feel it during the heavier warm up sets and I do not want to aggravate it.
Band walks and foam rolling before and after
