Bloobird: We don’t have free barbells in the local rec center, so I take the bar from the rack and put it on the floor. Sadly, the guy doing skull crushers was using one of the three barbells I could use…the other ones were taken on squatsand bench so I had to wait for someone to finish up before I could grab 'em…

Realized the other day I’m not going low enough on my squats, so I’m probably going 2-4 inches lower than I was previously, which has dropped my weight considerably. At least I know I’m doing it right now, and my inability to sit today is a testament to that…

Stretch
Through this workout I realized that it’s time I switched up my routine, at least outside of the team lifts. I’m looking to gain mass and am going to try a more split-type workout. I haven’t done this in a long time (been doing full-body strength focused work) so I’m thinking it 'll be a good move to switch it up.
