In college my leg days were killers. Our weight room was on the second floor and if you didn't need to hold on the handrail while going down to the lockers room you didn't push yourself hard enough. I honestly didn't think that would ever happen by just doing body weight squats. This morning I started working on pistol squats using my suspension trainer for balance and assistance. I decided to start out with 4 sets of 5 and work up to not needing the bands before adding any more reps. I really had to push myself but I got them done and a good burn going in my legs. I went upstairs to shower and get dressed for the day, got my 2 year old dressed and headed downstairs to start breakfast. The first step almost sent both of us tumbling down the stairs as my leg gave completely out. I was able fall backwards onto my butt, saving the bad fall, but Holly Crap! I haven't had the feeling in 14 years.
