40 Minutes of Stretching

Comments: I was not sure how today would go. Yesterday's stone training had thoroughly fatigued my hips and managed to get my quads sore. I haven't had that happen on stones in forever. I had to sprint through this workout due to things. Box squats were crisp, besides a bad rep on sets two and six. Hip thrusts were a tad slow the first set but super easy the next set. I didn't feel anything in my glutes and hamstrings until I got up to big boy weight of 495lbs. 545lbs was tough but I did all my reps. Then on to belt squats. These are getting tough haha. Abs were tough too, so I'll be staying at this weight for a bit. Had to stretch later to make it out of there on time. Training has just been fantastic.
