9/14 Pathetic Squat

Well, since my back has felt pretty good these past few workouts, I decided to try back squatting today.

Seated Calf (the power rack was being used): 135x20, 15

Squat: 135x8
155x5
185x4 <- all of these felt much harder than they should have, and my lower back felt really uncomfortable. I guess its all front squats for a few more months.

SLDL: 135x10
155x20 (these, however cause pretty much no discomfort as long as I brace my abs)

Ab Wheel: 20 reps

I think I may not compete in November after all. No sense in squatting 185 in a meet, or just doing a bench only. I will just focus this next quarter on 1. getting my squat and deadlift back via back rehab and 2. get a bigger bench/more muscular upper body
