Don’t take the blah, folded, high squat too much to heart. That’s all part of the strength cycle; it’s up and down. I expect that the blah day will be followed by a good day.
It can be tough though because if, like me, you look forward to training and are stoked for it, then a blah day sometimes feels even worse than that.
So this monrings visit to the doctor revealed that I have regenerative disc disease and a tiny bit of arthritis. Nothing that isn’t consistant with being an active 43 year old. I need to keep a close eye on form and not give in to my more dumbass impulses and it should be good.

What test did they do to determine this? MRI?
I should probably have a 100,000 mile look under the hood myself.

One of my most enjoyable memories is running out of a forbidden mayan ruin with a metric shit ton of enormous iguanas chasing me and that was after all the bats.

Was that a computer game, dream or real life? lol[/quote]
To the utter dismay of my wife that was real life.

lol That is almost too good to be true. Someday, you need to post the whole story.
Okay here is the condensed version. Wife and I were on a cruise with some friends and one of the places we went on the stops was a Mayan ruin called Uxmal. At the time I had an inguinal hernia so when we got to the pyramid we were allowed to climb I waitied until my wife was distracted and then started climbing it.
When I got to the top and looked around I realized that I could get to one of the unaccessable buildings if I jumped from the pyramid to a rocky outcropping jutting out from the hill that the cool building was on. It was about a five foot jump so it wasn’t bad but it was a pretty far fall if you effed it up.
Figuring that I’m never going to get the chance again I jumped, did not plumet to my death, and climbed up the side of the hill. There was obviously no lighting in the building so as I walked in I disturbed a lot of bats leading to my exit from the building al la Scooby Doo.
Figuring it was okay I went back in where I couldn’t see anything really only to discover I could hear a sort of hissing/spitting sound. I kept on hoping my eyes would adjust a bit and they did which is when I saw a lot of movement and figured I needed to head out.
When I got to the light I could see A LOT of really big iguanas following me which was odd because I thought they wouldn’t do that. But in this case they were pissed and kind of scarey. I managed to slide/fall down the rocky hill to be met by park employees who explained to me that the building was forbidden and that I was a dumbass.
Luckily they just figured I was an American moron and let it go at a stern talking to. My wife on the other hand…

I remember that story. It was right before he had his hernia surgery. So as he ran away his hernia ripped, ripped, and ripped a little more. His wife and I were both dismayed…
That is a cool story. Fits perfectly with dumbass impulse theme. Of course, sounds like you were just being a guy…lol. And, yes, some will say that is the same as “dumbass”.

This is true, the original exam showed a very small hernia but by the surgery it was quite large.
