Relentless?

I would love to, and that meet is a great cause, but right now with being sick and just a lot of other pokers in the fire (going back to school), I am lucky to catch myself coming and going. Is Cube a solid program? I think it is. I like it. It has some benefits of Westside with a little flavor of 5/3/1 too...as for being back? Nah, not even close. It probably sounds a bit arrogant, but 500 isn't shit to me anymore. I've been over 5 so many times and have plenty of 500 presses in meets. Now when we start talking 550+ or 6...now were talking!! LOL. That my friend will be a bit. But regardless, things are coming along pretty well. Helps actually following a program dilligently and hitting every rep. LOL. Gee, what a novel idea. LOL.

 

[Go Away]

Man... First day of bench for the whole program and he calls for 70% x 10 for 2 sets after the heavy floor presses smh...

Did that kick your ass or am I a weakling?!

Looking forward to seeing how this pans out for you - only a few weeks left right?

 

[Flathead]

Got Damn I've missed out on alot over here. Great to see my boys still pushing through. I need to fire up the tele a do some catching up!!!
