I really wasn't looking forward to today's workout because my quads were still sore from Wednesday's leg session. Also, most of my body is aching from this week's training, especially my arms, chest and abs. However, my legs felt better at the end of today's training than it did at the beginning. I guess all of the squats helped to stretch out my muscles. I feel fine now; hopefully this isn't the calm before the storm.

While I was doing the timed squats I felt some lower back pain, but not the usual injury type. It felt more like soreness left over from this week's training. Of course, all of the up and down movements made my head spin, as usual.
