Terrible workout. Right knee pain once I got to 3p on hack squat and then I couldn’t really do anything quad related. Could feel it on Bulgarians as well. So I just did isometric Spanish squats and then my usual stuff for PC, seated leg curl, hip thrusts, abductor/adductor. Will probably replace hack squat with something else next week
