GOING TO COMPETE SEP 10 And Adductor Still Hurt, But Able To Squat Today

04.19.2017
Olympic Back Squat, no belt, no wraps, no sleeves, paused first rep till 315
45 x 5 x 2
135 x 4
225 x 3
315 x 2
355 x 1
375 x 1
325 x 2 x 2

Leg Press, 45-degree, thighs to chest
495 x 1, 2, 3
545 x 10
585 x 9

My adductor felt healed enough to squat, and I just didn't want to wait around and NOT squat anymore. It held up amazingly well, then I tweaked it again when I lost control on the last rep of leg presses! The leg press was how I hurt it in the first place. Letting my knees drift out at the bottom and really stretching the adductor then reversing direction against all that weight.

I am basically doing short cycles and have started over with the squat. I went up to 385 last microcycle and now this microcycle I'm starting at 375 as of today and hoping my adductor has pulled itself together again by next week. I really should have not gone to failure on leg press.
