Good job man. That butt-wink erasing final front squat set was very solid.

Solid dips too. One of these days I'll do dips on my bench assistance day. Can't go wrong with the dips.

Keep it up.

Nice job on the lifting man. The progress is moving right along.

You fought hard for those 185 presses man. Next stop 205.

At this stage progress isn't as quick as it used to be. Little by little lol...

185 is almost a BW OHP for me. I'm just 10 lbs off lol...

Thanks buddy
