Overall Impression:

ok this was an amazing workout. i cant believe i nailed 220 lbs on the squats.

the bench press was difficult and ive been stuck on it this entire month. 4 weeks. but i am glad i stuck to it. i can tell u set 5 was expected to be difficult. but i kept telling myself "look at the ceiling. dont move ur eyes off. breathe in. look up. breahte out. feet planted straight. no moving. no moving. breathe in. look up. look. up. and so on and so forth. i cant believe i got all 25 reps.

the rows went good as well. nothing new.

great workout so far. im happy.
