Oddly enough, after nine sets of squats, my quadriceps aren't wasted today. Ran up several flights of stairs at work, and didn't note much soreness at all.

Seems the major soreness is in the synergistic muscles. Glutes and inner hip muscles are really sore. Low back is also stiff and achy, likely due to the added 10lb on the Good Mornings.

Once again, not quite what was anticipated (although my Pecs are still slightly sore from the workout Aug 30). I'll keep trying this shocking experiment, with a different exercise each session, to see if it leads to growth.

I realize that muscle soreness after exercise is not a very good measure of how effective/productive an exercise is, but it seems to be the only low-tech measure available.

EDIT: It seems I was a little sore... As I was sitting down to lunch yesterday one of my co-workers asked why I was moving around like a little old man
