Week 4 - DE Lower - 10/26/03
As many of you are aware, I have battled lower back pain which has resulted in driving me away from the sport of powerlifting. I have degenerative disc disease at L4-5 with an associated buldging of the disc.
A few days ago, I started stretching in an attempt to get my hips and hams ready to squat again. Today, I started a light workout that Bigguns15 and I are calling rehab until I get enough flexibility to squat with an arched back and no rounding at the bottom.
It looks pathetic, but I did box squats off a very high box and rack pulls from knee height in today's workout. Any more depth would have resulted in my back starting to round. What an amazing display of flexibility eh? Even when it's discouraging, I'm going to keep pushing the limits in hopes of squatting below parallel again one day.
High Box Squats 275 for 8 sets of 2
1 box squat set
Speed Rack Pulls from Knee Height 275 x 1 x 1, 315 x 1, 365 x 1, 405 x 1 x 1
Reverse Hypers on Stability Ball 3 sets of 12 w/green band
1 reverse hyper set
Abs 3 sets of 12
