    Been out of action for a couple of weeks, strained my hip flexor pretty badly, and haven't done any lower body work (felt like my quad was being ripped apart every time I kicked a ball or walked up stairs. Got some decent upper body work done though.
    Got back to squatting yesterday, no pain, and feels fine today. Football is finishing up, so hopefully I can get a good run of training in.
