Comments: Was not sure what was going to happen with squats. Still felt it in the lower body from attempted event training. I was concerned after how heavy the warm-up singles felt but pushed forward. Every rep with 380lbs felt heavy and slow. Really surprised to get more than 5 with how hard it felt. Just kept saying one more rep to myself and telling myself that I've done this stuff before. Bar rolled up my back on the tenth rep, making it way harder than it should have been. Felt like a good place to stop. Would have liked a dozen but still good. A bit apprehensive with how the chain squats would go but didn't have much trouble. Just felt heavy haha. Hip thrusts were painful without the squat pad. Had a bench with padding this time so no gashes on my lower back. Band leg curls were quite tough.
