That's, uh, a lot of reps.

What program are you running again? Your own hack? Do you have an outline?

I was wondering the same. Hope the new gym is going well so far. Good to see you've been able to train yourself while opening.

Good meeting you too man! The space is coming along. Should be launching the thing Nov. 3rd. I'm currently running "Gain all the weight and strength back that you lost a month ago while opening a gym for your meet 10/25. I do have a template of my old program but it's on paper. I'll write out a similar one once this meet is over. I'll post it up.

You been...slappin'...da bass...maun? Congrats on that 5RM!

Yeah I got my training back on track just in time I think. I'll layout program after this meet. It's most likely going to explode your brain.

How's your meet prep? Are we about to see sqt/pr/dead PRs from ya? I haven't stalked your log in a sec, but I'm bout to change that.

Good to see you getting back into your training again, Alex. That's awful about your prowler. People can be real scumbags sometimes.
