A return to strength training. I woke up with a ton of soreness in my lower back that made it difficult just to walk around. I don't know if i slept wrong or what, but the stiffness lingered all day. I kept reminding myself of yesterday's article that talked about pushing through it, so today i did squats.
After a warmup, I completed 5 sets of 10 reps w/ 135 pounds. I rested 1:30 between sets and the workout lasted 10:45.
I haven't squatted in quite some time and my quads were on fire at the end. That last set is when you grow, though. All the prior sets are just getting you to a point where you're ready to build muscle.
That's how i lie to myself, anyways. Tomorrow will be interesting.
