Good session, this workout finishes up my 12 week program. So hopefully coach puts together something spicy for the next couple of months with a focus on my legs and upper chest.
Been sick this week for a few days still got it done though.
Had a few off plan meals this week being Easter and spending time with my children and family. Keen to knuckle down again this week and get huge. Hopefully everyone reading had a good Easter.
