Spent about 2 1/2 hours in the gym today. I LOVE IT!!!. The Power Phase of trining today was mixed feelings. The first successful 365lbs Bench Press had a good sticking point but I still managed to press it. The second 365lbs with wrist wraps was spectacular. No sticking point, good pause on my chest, and I smoked it!!! I would really like to duplicate what ever I did at the competition :-)
