So, I was kind of going into tonight thinking that since it was speed squat/dl night it would be the one that kicked me in the balls this week. I gotta tell ya, I was pleasantly surprised. Speed box squats went up pretty damn easy. After that did some ham string work, some static oblique work, and once again some curls. It's really getting to be entertaining to hear my partner say "Seriously, bar curls again?" When he's the one always wanting to do curls. Apparently four nights of bar curls makes him want to curse me.
I got in a few minutes early tonight and used the foam roller for a bit before I started, that really helped with the mid and lower back tightness which was nice. I looked at some foam rollers for home on Amazon. Found a "great" review which was title "I'm a big guy and this thing is tough." Little further in the interview he points out he's like 210 pounds and I'm thinking "Oh, I'm sorry, I thought you said big." I did eventually find some other reviews from some larger people who said it has held up nicely for them.
Also a few of the people there had a chat on doing the Smolov squat routine in 2014. Best reason we could think of is because misery loves company. This is one of those odd moments my knees and head are in agreement that squatting four days a week would be very painful, but it generally puts around 100 pounds on your squat in those 13 weeks, so that's a pretty tempting number.
