October 08, 2011 - DE LB

I didn't lift Friday as I only had 5 hours of sleep (being generous with that estimate) and I actually had work at work so I was beyond tired. Figured a day of rest would be better than trying to force a workout.

33 Minutes of Stretching

Comments: Probably the latest I've ever gone to the gym. I didn't trust four college age teenagers on a double date in the house unsupervised. Had to work fast for this workout. This was the best squats have ever been for me, both speed and form wise. Felt good on the first work set (usually takes a few to get going). My quads were cramping a little just positioning myself in the leg press. I decided to up the weight I was going for on leg pressing by 20lbs. Good call on that. I felt good for a little more. Abs are definitely back at pre-injury strength. Did the stretching at home.
