Notes:  Decided my hips needed an extended break from heavy lifting after Monday's squats, so the rest of the week was all press/push/pull work with a little light hip rehab.  I may start light (embarrassingly so) again today, but we'll see how I feel after a warmup.

Notes: Back was killing me in the early part of the week.  Couldn't hold onto the bar on Monday, and I got threatening letters with attorney letterhead when I went down for my first working squat on Wednesday.  I blame the RPT volume from last week.  I think I'm recovered at this point, so I'm optimistic that this week's workouts will be less disappointing.
