something MUST be wrong with my DL's. I hurt badly today ... not like sore from lifting, but like can barely sit or stand too long due to lower back pain. Started about an hour or so after DL's yesterday and got worse. Some better today. Ugh. I think I will take today off.

sorry about the dls. Have you thought about videoing them and sticking them up for some suggestions? Maybe you have a form issue you just can't see?

Excellent thought, Mel. I just had an expert trainer check my form about 4 weeks ago, but it is possible it's screwed up now. Without a doubt.

However, me and the camera - we don't get along.

Finally had some improvement with the back - maybe 75% better. I worked out the past couple of days. Today, was partially a back day, and I felt some residual soreness. I am thinking I might have to get rid of deadlifts. I dunno yet. I hate getting down in my back. I'm too young for that!

I'm exceedingly jealous of your 225 bench.

And the fact you can lift anything at 5:15 is pretty impressive in my book. I would be unable to lift myself out of bed!

Thanks, Rob. I hope I won't stall out at 225 too long, but kinda having trouble getting more than 2 there now ...

There will be an entry on 1/8, right? Right? I sense an ass-kicking comin' on!

rob, you crack me up. But thanks for the movitation, I knew after my 3 day hiatus due to a kid not sleeping through the night, I wouldn't be able to skip again! So I made it up, but as you'll see below, there was no butt kicking. It was a tad lackluster, but I made it in there at least!

1-8-08

Pull-ups
8 x BW
4 x BW
3 x BW

DB Unilateral Row
10 x 50e x 3
8 x 50e

Pull-throughs
10 x 40
8 x 40
10 x 40
7 x 40

Leg Press

10 x 270
10 x 360
7 x 450

Notes: Not the greatest workout. I didn't get to finish my calves workout because a boot camp class descended into the lower body area of the weight room and took over. I was hacked, but smiled and moved outta the way.

The pullthroughs were a challenge; not sure I got the form totally right so kept on light weight. Still, my lower back - dang. Wondering if something is going on there. Frustrating!
