Thanks Dave. I've got it to where I can "lift" heavy no problem. Maybe a little hitch here and there but nothing major. As long as I don't get stupid. For instance I never do any kinds of dead off a platform. That'll screw me. Hypers are a particular problem for me though. I guess due to the nature of the injury. The problem is it's not always "I'll see how I feel" kind of thing but the difference between being fine one day and being crippled the next.
But I get some feedback while I'm doing them so I'll do what you said. Except I may just do one set of 8 and work from there. I work the hell out of my back, that is just more than I would normally do all together. Thanks for the suggestions!
