Horrible day. Didn't warm up real well and hurried to much. Hamstring felt tighter on every set and couldn't work it out. Felt a pop and quit. Hopefully it isn't too messed up. Time will tell. I am getting too old for stupidity in the gym.

Pretty good day. Didn't get all of my reps in, but way better than usual.
