20 rep squats - week 5

Felt pretty tired today leading up to tonights leg workout. Had a coffee about half an hour before which got me through it, but holy crap what a tough workout. I banged out 20 reps on squats which tested my endurance to the extreme. Lunges on the other hand, while super light, made my knee cap feel really painful so I backed off them a bit. Weird..


Anyway, quick forearm update. Feeling somewhat better today and I don't want to screw things up by jumping back into heavy weights. I'll keep doing what I'm doing and see how I am by the end of this week. Fingers crossed.
