Today -

back squat -
3x1 w/ 315 lb (the goal today was a set of 4 reps with 315, but I felt a mild low back spasm on the last rep of my last warm up set. I couldn't get it out of my head. I did 3 singles that felt fine, but my back still felt off between sets, so I played it safe and didn't try for 4 reps)
