So my back hurt and I'm pretty sure it was from doing squat thrusts to the floor (I usually do them to an old reebok stepper that's lying around the basement). It was just too much of a stretch. I exacerbated it squatting the next day. Hence why I'm going back to box squats like I mentioned in my last post. Benching felt awesome. I still used a rolled up towel to take up the space where my shoulder is bothering me, but it's the best it has felt in a long time. I'm getting really close to being pain free there. The weight was light, I didn't even wrap my wrists. I remember not that long ago when I had to bench with my feet up because my back was so jammed up. Progress! I will say though, my body has had it. With all the work I do now, I definitely need deloads every three weeks. Plus I did not get massage this week. I'll fix that next week though. I'm going to see my girl Heather. I think I'll propose to her. However, it might be awkward because I'll be in the couples room with my wife. Is polygamy legal in Connecticut?
