I suffered an Injury! Yikes!....

I started doing barbell back squats and went this far:
set1: 125 lb. 20 reps
set2: 175 lb. 15 reps
set3: 195 lb. 2 reps then.... My inner thigh muscle made a ripping sound. It felt like a venetian blind being rolled up. I was going to pyramid up to 255 lb. So, I guess I'll rest legs until Tuesday. I will apply electro stimulation to the injured area during the weekend.

I was planning on 4 sets of dead lifts, and a couple of sets of leg extensions and leg curls followed by abs. I'll just take a mini-layoff instead.
