Comments: Some aches going into this one. Plan was to do light sets of ten for squats. I was initially going to do straight sets but decided to add 10kgs a set. Lots of reps with squats, some knee aches but felt good for the leg muscles and no issues with the back. I had to make some adjustments for the next exercises. I don't have my ghr at the Y and last few times I've done back extensions. But I felt it was important to do the movement as best as I can so I made one out of a back extension, dumbbells and bumper plates. Painful right above knees due to lack of cushioning but good work for the hamstrings. Tried to go down as far as I can but still not all the way so can't count them as full reps. Low reps here as I lack the strength. Finished up with abs for sidebends.
