Deadlift & INJURY!

Deadlift

228/5, 278/5, 318/5, 368/2

Boom- back injury in the middle of the second rep of 368. Not really sure why, as my form felt good. But, this is a bad one. I couldn't even rack my weights. Just left the bar there after taking the 25's off. That painful.

So, now I am home icing. Hope I am not out too long.

THIS SUCKS!!!!!!!!

Squats

Body weight: 218

I woke up feeling a tweak in my back, which was upsetting since today was squat day. Unfortunately, I felt the tweak the most when I unracked the bar. After my set of 278, I wanted to try 303/3. I unracked it twice and my back told me to put the bar back both times. Sigh.

In any event, I did increase one rep on the set of 278 and I did move up the weight 10 pounds for front squats. I will save deadlifts for Tuesday.

Squats

138/5, 138/5, 158/4, 188/3, 248/2
278/6 (+1 rep from last time)

Front Squats

188/5, 188/5, 188/5 (increased the weight 10 pounds)
