Pretty brutal workout volume wise today. It's cool to feel yourself get stronger, even if it's baby steps. My squats had just a bit more horsepower today and I hit a pr in pressing the 24kg bell with the 2 ladders to 5 rungs.

Time to eat. I'm about 212 lbs right now.

I felt strong today. Squats went well. All were down low and a bit of a pause at the bottom.

C&P went well. I'm getting close to hitting 5 ladders to 5 with the 24kg, which, is an intermediate goal for me along with hitting 5 ladders to 3 rungs with the 28kg bell. Getting both of those would be a solid step in the right direction.
