Front Squat
225x5, 225x5

This was not my normal lower body routine. I wanted to test the lower back and see if it would act up. For the first time in a long time (at least a year) I experienced no back stiffness. I kept waiting for it to stiffen up and was shocked that it did not.

*** I have not deadlifted in at least 3 months. I kept it light and felt like I was going to stuble backward but again was seeing how the back reacted. I still have some pain in the area but since yesterdays acupunture treatment the always present tension and the stiffness that comes from certain positions is gone (at least for now). Not sure what else to say but WOW.
