I nearly did myself a proper train wreck of an injury today. I went early for a 50+ heart check at the docs then walked in the rain to the gym. Leg press first as per. I warmed up and did a work in with 150kg big John Brown. I worked, as per, to 700-kilos. For whatever reason I lost attention on and neglected to hold the safety bars in as I always do.

One rep... and it carries on coming down.... more down and keeps coming. I'm feeling the strain and know I wont recover. As it hit bottom I'm half out of the machine. My right legs had the knee up by my ear and the other is out. I wriggled out and lay on the floor with John and Jarrard (from behind the counter) running over to rescue me.

I checked I'd not torn anything (looking down my training trousers for bruising). My left calf is sore as is my groin and lower back. I know I'll be walking like John Wayne tomorrow.

I've been getting mild cramps in my hands. Sometimes a sign I'm working grip hard. So that's good. Legs was hard today. I did a LOT of reps and tried deep, deep reps as well as differing ranges of depth to work out the kinks after last weeks accident. Slight tremors on the inner thigh and stiffness in the calves. I also stretched my hams and quads.
