Did the lower body weights this evening, and after the first set, it was just too easy.
I packed on 10 pounds onto the curling bar, which I use for calf raises. It was time.
I also added 10 pounds onto the quads, and hamstring curling bars. So all was fine, and I did 15 reps for two more sets on calf raises. No problem with the extra weight, and got a good burn there.
Second, and third sets on quadriceps OK. 12 reps, and a good burn. Second set on hamstrings, had to strain quite a bit, but got 12 reps in.
Then.........third set on hamstrings, about the 4th or 5th rep, something in the back went POP! Mini-muscle spasm. Crap!! Stopped, and stretched lower back muscles, and on the heating pad. Hope I didn't bung it up. Oh Lord, I hope I didn't bung it up. It's been almost two years since I've had a back episode. Better find the ice, and the heating pad. Maybe I can stave it off.
Heat, ice, stretch. Wish me luck. Sure don't need an injury right now. :egad: :argh:
