* I've been sick all weekend so I didn't know how this session would go.  I went in with the intent to just feel it out, maybe do some high volume lighter squatting just put in some work and maybe help sweat out this flu, but as I got going I actually felt pretty strong.  I warmed up real well and my knee felt ok so I didn't use a box at all for my squats and ended up squatting the most I've done since surgery.  Even though I feel like death I'm happy with the session.
