Squats, yes, I went there.

Back felt pretty good, ankle felt pretty good, my mood was pretty good, so tonight did squats.  Nothing amazing, box squats, worked my way up from 145 for a few reps to doubles with 165, 185, 205, then 235 for 8 sets of 2.  All of them felt good, didn't require knee sleeves so that was nice.  Did the reps for speed, I was pretty smooth and speedy on all of them.  Couple of them even had to re-position the bar because it left my shoulders.  All the leg extensions and leg curls I've done lately out of necessity had poorly prepared me for doing squats again.  After that my legs were kind of throbbing.  So naturally I did the dumbest thing I could think of and dropped to 145 and did mid-range squats for 4 sets of 15.  The portions of my quad just above my knee were throbbing and on fire at this point.  Considered doing some more accessory work but I came to my senses since I do need to be able to walk at work tomorrow.  As I was leaving the gym a friend sent a text telling me after his leg day he was walking like Lt. Dan.  I too knew his pain at that moment.
