Legs today - might have pushed too hard
My long 3 week vacation really allowed my muscles to weaken a bit. My upper body workout on tuesday took me 3 days to get over the soreness. Today I did a total leg workout. I might have pushed the squats a little too much. It didn’t hurt at all when I was doing them but now, 5 hours later, my lower back is kind of sore. Almost feels like I pulled a muscle, but it doesn’t quite hurt like that. It’s just very tender and aching. I’ll probably have to take a good 2 days off to recover.
I’m planning my next workout for tuesday and I’m going to get back into my old routine. I should be able to start my regular schedule again without the soreness. Only thing is, I’m going to start Tuesday with Ches/Tris and then skip the leg workout until the following tuesday. I’m looking at 4 workouts per week:
Mon: Chest / Triceps
Tue: Legs
Wed: day off
Thu: Shoulders / Traps
Fri: day off
Sat: Back/ Biceps
Sun: day off
We’ll see how that works for me.

Dont over do it. Give yourself a little time to get back in the swing of things.
