Ordered an inversion table yesterday, which should arrive next week.

Hopefully it lives up to the miracle cures I've been reading about.

Low Bar Back Squat (Wide Stance)

  • 45lbs: 20
  • 137.5lbs: 8
  • 187.5lbs: 5
  • 227.5lbs: 5
  • 277.5lbs: 5
  • 317.5lbs: 5

Weighted Dips

  • Bodyweight (200lbs): 12
  • Bodyweight (200lbs) + 90lbs: 4,5,5
  • felt some sharp pain in my right traps on the 1st set

Fatgripz Barbell Curl

  • 45lbs: 10
  • 72.5lbs: 10,6
    • Fatgripz makes this exercise much more difficult, and burning.

Ever since I started taking strength training seriously, I was bitten by the Iron Bug. Then it burrowed under my skin and laid eggs in my heart. Now those eggs are hatching and I... the feeling is indescribable.
