Turbolag's Lifting Log and Other Stuff

I was reading from the top of the page thinking "come on Turbo.... Just get in there and tough it out" and by the end I smiled. Way to persevere!

Me too! Awesome effort.

Sometimes we just need to remind ourselves, that once we give the training session 10-15 minutes, the enthusiasm and energy starts manifesting.

Thank you CL! After warming up I noticed everything felt on track, so I'm glad I didn't just pass on it.

Excellent form!

All done! Was tired when I started my working sets for squats, but by the time I got to the 3rd set I was much more awake. I have some videos I'll post up in a bit.

Edit: also, I tried a new warm up that I saw Chris Duffin recommend. He said he uses a lot of warm ups before squats. After I did the over head and split squats I was out of breath! I think I wanna keep those in my warm up before squats.
