I feel like I really made some progress today.  Figuring out the whole rep scheme thing may have really helped.  But I also just felt really good.  Squats felt strong and like my legs are giving more of an even effort.  Motivated by going up in weight.  The split squats were really tough with 35#.  The weird thing is they felt harder on the right.  And now I have some right sided buttock pain.  The same issue I had when running.  I think it's piriformis syndrome.  It'll be fine once I roll it out, etc.  But it's all flared up.  The right leg also gets really tight when I'm split squating with the left leg forward.  The hip thrust really tired out my back.  My low back muscles got really tight.  Just in a good way, like they were working.  The good-mornings were extra tough with an already tight back.  Holding for 3 at the bottom is the hard part.  Thanks!
