Weight: 199. I've had a pain behind my left elbow (lower triceps?) for about 5 days. I wasn't sure how much I could do today. It bothered me on the first couple of sets of PP's but it was tolerable after that until curls. I thought the Tri PD's would aggravate it but it was the curls, specifically at the top or finish position where it hurt the most. I wear an elbow sleeve on that elbow because I've had pain there before but nothing to this extent.

I've had some tender spots there, ended up flossing and rolling the area and it feels way better. It was honestly the most painful rolling I've done besides first time on the IT band.

I used the lacrosse ball for some rolling. Feels better. Thanks.

Weight: 198. I wanted to be 195 by the time I went to Vegas for my anniversary. Last trip to the gym before I leave is tomorrow. Looks like I'm going to come up a little short. I waited too long to actually get serious about cutting calories. Still happy about getting under 200.

Weight: 200. Expected to gain a few lbs after the weekend eating orgy in Vegas so 'only' 200 was a pleasant surprise.

On the down side I missed Monday's workout and then Tuesday I experienced severe knee pain while doing squats. The pain was in the front of my knee and down the shin. I felt it from the 1st warm up set but I kept going since it wasn't effecting my ability to squat. By the time I finished rows I was limping. Got home and iced my knee which was swollen. Could barley move around at work but as the night wore on it actually started to feel better and the swelling went down some. It was still pretty swollen on Wednesday but the pain was mostly gone. Today it seems to be OK. Lately it always seems to be something. I'm starting to wonder if I'm getting too old for this ****. I don't want to be that guy with the chrome db's doing tricep kickbacks.

Weight: 200. Knee felt fine today. No pain, no swelling (yet). I really don't know what the hell happened last week. I dislocated that knee a couple of times 30+ years ago and I used to have a problem with it popping out but it hasn't bothered me in along time. Just seems so random. Oh well, no pain is fine with with me.

I know the feeling - I'm 48 and still push myself hard when I lift. Its getting harder & harder to recover from that. How old are you?

Glad the knee feels better.

I bet it would help at least a little if you roll the **** out of your quads, ITBs, glutes & calves, and stretched the quads/hips flexors.

57 in a couple of months. I probably would be well served if I stretched more. I'll have to make more of an effort in that area. BTW, you are doing so mighty fine lifting for any age.

You ever have one of those days where everything feels REALLY heavy. This was one of those days.

Today:

SSB: 110x5; 150x3; 180x3; 200x3; 220x3; 240x2. Wanted to do 3 @ 240 but the 2nd rep was a real grind so I bailed.
