Shoulder still getting rest and work by Dr. Mike so came in to do a 21-15-9 Back squat with 30 double unders in between each set.
About 3 reps into the set of 15 my hamstring twinged…..so I stopped. The conversation that followed with Frank was the best part…
Frank – what’s wrong bud
Me – Oh my shoulder still and now i just got a hamstring twinge
Frank – How old are you?
Me – 38
Frank – I think your almost hitting your warranty.
Awesomeness from Team Old Balls …and so true!
