squats again

I really, really, really don't want to work out today. My back hurts like hell (probly from spending all day yesterday in front of a computer), my stomach is foobarred (and gassy! Yeehaw!), and my mom and Daniel are swinging by sometime today, which means they may well show up in mid-workout.

I'm going to do it anyway. It'll suck, but not as bad as not working out at all.

(Thursday, Friday and Saturday were -bad- re: food situation. Eating lots of pot pies, frozen pizzas and restaurant food. Am relieved I'm returning to work tomorrow, as that seems to be when I get back onto, and stick with, the brown rice lunches. Easier on my stomach and better for me as well).

Set six on squats, I 'wussed out.' Could have done more, but got mentally weak and just quit. On leg extensions, I think I was using too much weight. I was cheating a lot - leaning back, and using explosive 'kicking' motion to move the weight, rather than steady 'pushing' motion.
Tried to do leg curls as well, but that's just not happening. I got an instant and severe hamstring cramp that had me hopping about and swearing.
