notes: disaster... i planned on doing a mini meet doing all three lifts that day, so started with the squats, all went well until my last set i tightened my butt straps as i didn't seem to be getting any stop from the suit and muscling it up from parallel, that was a mistake, never using those things again... all they do is feel like they restrict your groove and feels like it ADDED weight to the bar... not to mention i lost my balance on the 735 and tipped over backwards, thankfully spotters saved my ass, reset, went for it and it just felt like a ton... took it half way down and muscled it back up, racked it and WTF, i pulled something in my mid back :wallbash:
so 2 weeks out and gonna have to take another week off as i just came off one due to being shaky the last session, hope it's just a strained muscle and can still compete, it'll be a last minute decision... on a positive note, i feel a bit better today but still hurts, work is gonna suck this week that's for sure...
