Synopsis
As you can see I backed all my weights off 20%. I’ve decided to start back slow so as not to aggravate my tendonitis. I also have carpal tunnel & have been taking steps to alleviate it, but it’s slowly progressing. The way my right hand tingles & jolts, I’m sure surgery is in the future. With that in mind, I'm wearing straps on all my pulls, now.

My daughter had her wisdom teeth out yesterday & needed attendance, plus I wasn't feeling well, so I went home & slept. I think whatever virus I am hosting has moved into my lungs. I feel asthmatic, or something. Hurts when I take a deep breath & I get winded easily. Going to do day 2 of my convalescent workout tonight, but I'll beg off the cardio for a few days.

KICK ASS WORKOUTS!!!

I'm feeling better. Baby girl is, too. She almost went back to work yesterday.
I got my workout in yesterday, but haven't had time to post it.

So, I'm talking to 2 guys at work yesterday, one hits the gym pretty regular, & we're talking about sore legs, etc. I was bitching about a book I saw for women that said not to go below horizontal when doing squats(with D.B.s, no less). Gym-boy says yeah, 'cause they're bad for ya. He does leg extensions & leg curls. I've been reading PracProg & S.S. & what they say, to me, makes a lot of sense. These guys are going on & on about how they're knees are fuggered because of squats, etc. I asked the guy if he'd done squats, & he said 20 yrs ago. I asked where he learned, & he said Flex.
