    Squats today were tough. For some reason my lower left leg kept bothering. The muscle that connects to the side of the knee and runs down side of calf kept hurting me. Never had this happen but it hindered my lifts. I dont know if its injured for awhile or what now i noticed it while warming up.
    Secondly a god awful back pump messed me up too. These are just really aggravating and there isnt much you can do. I have nobody to roll it out so basically im just dealing with it. Used a different squat rack today also and hated it. Way to narrow but oh well it didnt matter. Didnt get the amount of reps I wanted last two sets bc of pain

    There's always something hurting in this damn sport. Just be sure you know the difference between a possible injury and a minor irritation. BB'ers are stubborn and we often times continue pushing through the pain on some movements to the point it results in an actual injury. Be smart.

    I have that same pain sometimes from skull crushers, gear or no gear. I started doing cable skull crush instead and don't seem to have the same issue even though its the same movement just a slightly different resistance arc. Doc says its probably from a radial ulnar nerve issue.

    Try JM bench instead of skull crushers. That was a good alternative without the pain.

    Best thing to do is if an exercise hurts stop doing it for a while. There's always a work around. Keep pushing through the pain and it will become an actual issue, not just an irritation.
