Setbacks

So, I went to the gym Thursday and it was awful. As soon as my squats got to 125# my back felt crushed. That diving foolishness really messed me up. I did 3 x 5 x 115 slow painful squats, then 3 x 3 x 85 equally awkward bench presses and hobbled out of the gym. Did nothing more strenuous then basic house-cleaning and walking the dog over the weekend, and made it in the gym tonight for the quick lift day.

I started with 12 air squats, the Burgener warm-up with the 35# bar, and 6 snatchs w/ 45#. Then, 1 x 10 x 45 front squats, 12 push-ups. 1x8x55 front squats, 12 push-ups. 1 x 6 x 65 front squats, 12 push-ups. Power cleans, 1 x 5 x 45, 2 x 3 x 55, 2 x 3 x 65, 2 x 3 x 75, 2 x 3 x 80, 4 x 3 x 85 mostly pretty darn ugly, 1 x 2 x 85. I did a set of 8 bicep curls w the bar and done. Home for a protein shake with vanilla almond milk (god that was yummy) and some strawberries. I hope my back will be good to go for Wedsnesday heavy day, may take a yoga class tomorrow.
