Very pleased with today's workout. I didn't sleep very well because Madi was practicing her kata on me in her sleep. I felt pretty sluggish this morning and my back was sore, but I still managed to set three new personal bests. I raced through the 50 back squats with 135 lb, completing 10 in 27 seconds before I took a break. The other 40 reps were broken down into 8, 8, 6, 6, 4, 4, 4.

Two possible factors: First, I didn't go for my 6:00 am bike ride this morning because of heavy rain, so perhaps my legs were a bit fresher than usual. Second, Chris, the gym's owner, was squatting beside me, so maybe I didn't want to look bad alongside her!
