Decided I’m not touching legs for another week or two due to the hip issues, and likely won’t use significant free weights for an additional week or two.
Back was done Friday- thought I posted here but I guess not, can’t remember exactly what I did.

Too pumped to lock out my elbows, sat for about 15 minutes to deflate before driving home. Hurt. Felt good.
At the gym today, on my 315 set- My eye caught some guy clearly attempting to secretly record me. I ignored it, acted like I didn’t notice, and he did continue to record.
My question is- would you have said something to him?
This guy ended up doing 225 for a few reps shortly after, so I just played it off as maybe he wanted to show someone what his goal was he wanted to reach or something.
Anyways, now I wonder how often this happens.
I honestly don’t care about being recorded- just don’t like sneaky shit lol.
