lol..I soooo know the feeling. Going up isn't too awfully bad, but going down the next day makes you wish you had a slide installed.

Yep. You'll start to feel it the next morning. And then, by the second and third day, even bathroom visits will become a nightmare! I love leg day!

Atta boy, Viking. Keep at it man!

Way to go. You will probably give a weeks pay for an elevator in a day or two. That's a good sign. Hang in there.

Good job my warrior friend. Got to love leg days I cant walk up stairs or get off the can thoose days lol. A little stretching and some walking helps.

I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it is gone past me I will turn to see fear's path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain
