I got more excuses than Carters got pills. Just don't need them!
After a week of little sleep and not eatting normally I am very
satisfied with my strength today. Next week I'll be back to
making progress.

After a hot and very challenging weekend
I knew going heavy wasn't going to happen.
But a 5x5, even a moderate one, can be
mentally challenging. Back on track this
Thursday and hopefully a run at a 300+
paused bench very soon.
