    Yep, after day of lifting I was barely able to walk. I need to get back to it.

    yup, just getting the area warmed up and moving helps wonders.

    +1

    If you can, just get up and moving. Go as slowly as you need to - it'll help even if you're crawling :wink:

    I'm in a similar boat today. Between weighted squats and running, my quads feel like they're bruised when I touch them, they're so sore. Thankful there's a small park just across the street from work - I'm creeping my way around it once for a quick break, and a couple of times at lunch.

    Did you squat with weight? It might help to try squats without weights to help build those muscles. I do 10 to 20 squats in the file room every time I walk up to the copier at work and it has to warm up. I think the squats without weights help to build those muscles and makes the squats with weights more bearable.

    I could be dead wrong.
    Oh there was a thread on this. Don't do those squats in the bathroom.

    oooooooh I found that post. Here it is:
    Well first i should start off saying that i don't have much time to exercise so i try to get some in at work. I usually walk stairs on breaks and things like that.
    I knew today was going to be a busy day and i wouldnt have much time to do anything. So i decided i was going to get my squats in early so i wouldnt have to worry about them later. I went to the ladies room and i was doing squats in the stall. I was doing great and got up to about 70 squats. On my last set my co worker walked in to use the restroom. I didn't think anything about it because i was so in the zone and was focused on getting my last set of squats in so i can get some coffee. You know how you make some type of noises when you have to push yourself on your last set? Yea....
    15 minutes later my boss called me in his office and explained to me that a co worker had heard me masturbating in the bathroom and it really disturbed her. I was in total shock trying to explain to my boss that i was just trying to get some quick squats in because i never have to time to exercise (because im always paper pushing for him :grumble: ) . He then said that he doesnt believe me and i need to do my personal business at home and not on the job and this was a warning. When i walked back to my desk everyone is just staring at me so i know my co worker had told everyone. I am so embarrassed beyond measures.
    Everyone keeps whispering behind my back, ugh Whyyyyy.

    I am soooooo guilty of this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just do 20 and get out. That was a good laugh, though.
