Quads:

Strange workout due to stiffness in both knees. I led off with squats, in which I have not in almost two months. At that time, I was doing mid 300's for reps, and 385 for a double. Today, 275 felt like a ton. It just shows you that the body loses adaptation as fast as it gets it. All in all is was still a decent workout.

Squat: 3 warms, 275/5,6 2 drops
Leg Press: 2 warms 450/9,10 1 drop
Leg Ext: 100/11,9
Walk Lunge outside.

I plan on squating for the next 4 plus weeks, so it would be interesting to see if I re gain the strength
