Golddigger aka 4Board did Bradford presses while I did rear and side delts. Reason being my ailing chicken wing (shoulder) is not quite 100% and I cannot do Bradfords without pain (save all your digs at my manhood for a later time. Thank you.) The speed work was admittedly very light; approximately 30-ish % of my raw bench. This is in part due to the fact that we will be starting a heavier chain phase in the next couple weeks and because today was my first time doing speed work in a few weeks. I'll wait another week or two before I screw myself up again.

Look for a mystery guest lifter to train with us starting next Sunday... It should be exciting (either because of the training or because a fist fight may break out). Either way, read all about it here!

Getting stronger...one arm at a time,
