I'm adding in some calf isolation stuff just because I'm starting to realize just how lagging my calves are compared to the rest of my body (sorta like how my delts are crap compared to the rest of my upper body). The seated calf raise that doesn't use a cable pulley was occupied, so I had to use the machine, and I sorta regret that just because I'm not entirely sure how much weight I'm actually doing on the machine. But, whatever.

The squats, I'm trying to regain my full mobility by going A2G, but I'm feeling this great stretch at the bottom and it's REALLY difficult to explode out of it. This is well below parallel and I know for a competition, I'm going to want to just break parallel. I know what that feels like, though (it's the moment I begin to feel any sort of stretch in my hip adductors). I know I'm much weaker out of the bottom than I used to be, so it'll have to be a slow progression.
