<p>Fukk...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Groin still super tight and quads were a bit sore too. Had a decent ride to warmup and worked the foam roller pretty good but wasnt enough. Tried some squats and think over compensated a bit as did something to my back. Nothing major but a bit sore so had to take it easy.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Squats - 10xbar, 8x50kg, 5x80, 3x110, 2x120, 10x80, 12x80, 12x80</p>
<p>Straight leg deads - 12x50kg, 10x60, 10x60, 10x60</p>
<p>Reverse hypers - 15, 15, 15</p>
<p>Seated calf press - 20x200, 15x300, 15x300, 15x300, 15x300</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Then retired to abs (3 x circuit of side planks, mountain climbers, leg drops) with foam roller and stretching in between circuits</p>
<p>15mins ride on the bike to finish.</p> -
<p>sucks when you are sore and have to dial things back a bit. Hope the back is all good after a rest. If it gets tight try reverse bearcrawls - those bad boys are magic to loosen up the lower back.</p>

Yeah my latest deadlift session was crap this morning on account of a weekend spent walking lotsa hills and sprinting at the park. Was still a tiny bit sore which reduced the loads somewhat. Real stink. Dom Mazetti would be disgusted that I had been doing stuff that even vaguely resembled cardio.

<p> </p>
<p>I lol'd that you finished up watching the 6.30am news... You are officially the sickest puppy on the fitness forum brah!</p> -

<p>You've been doing a bit more running lately aye? wonder if tight hammy's could be a factor with the sore back? Or did you tweak something during a lift last week?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>From your workout it doesn't sound like the sore back is slowing you down any! </p> -
