Rehab workout. Sort of.

I love deload week because I get to stray from the "program" and do whatever I want.  Last night I finally made it outside and wanted to do some rehab work for my low back.  after a pretty good warmup and some stretching I ended up with a 135lbs barbell on the floor trying to figure out what I wanted to do with it.  Being the lazy sloth that I am, I decided I didn't want to change the weight again, but try and do a full workout with what I had in front of me.  Sure, it looks a bit contrived, but what iron workout isn't?

Clean and press: 5 sets of 5
Sumo Deadlift : 3 sets of 10
Front squats: 2 sets of 15

finished up with some hip and hamstring mobility stuff.  Not real taxing, but it got the blood flowing and it put me in a considerably better mood.

Rehab is nice. i like it when i feel like i've earned some easy "blood flow" workout time.
