Legs

I wanted to try squats today, which turned out to be a bad idea, even from the get go my back didn't feel right.

Back Squats
135x12
185x12
205x12
225x1

Hip Thrusts
135x10
205x10
255x10
255x10

Goblet Squat, 15 second hold at bottom of squat, then 15 reps right after - 3 sets with a 50

Leg Extension - 3x12.....150
Seated Hamstring Curl - 70x12, 90x12, 12

I didn't hurt myself, but that single at rep at 225 felt really uncomfortable, similar to how the rack pulls did two weeks ago, just really tight.  I am not ready for back squats afterall, shame, oh well I can do plenty of other stuff.  The hip thrusts seem to target my glutes and low back pretty well.  Speaking of which, 255 for 2 sets of 10, considering how hard this exercise used to be for me, felt awesome.  The goblet squat thing I got as a medium finisher for the legs.  It was toughest to hold, hard on the abs, and medium on the legs, the hold did get challenging.  Overall I am disappointed my back didn't allow the squats, as 225 isn't a challenging weight (even with high bar), but I shouldn't have rushed it.
