    2/7:

    Squat: 290 x 8 x 3 (getting excited and NDTFP on light day once again)
    CGBP: 220 x 4 x 2 (did a 5th rep on set 2, but ass came off the bench)
    Sloppy DB rows: 110 x 10 x 3

    Arms were legitimately smoked from an hour of all out jiu jitsu brawling last night. No excuses, but that's why Saturday morning is light day.

    It is weird how much a song can affect your squats; with Grant music playing your first set was decent, but when you changed genre's your second and third sets were way smoother!

    Whether it was the music or whether I just got my brain straight after that haggard first set of 8, I'm glad it ended up going okay. This was a bit heavy on the volume for light day, so we'll see how Monday feels.

    You just needed "All about that Bass" going to nail your squats!

    I had a thought... how do you plan on getting your platform out of your loft should that time ever come? I don't even have the third layer on mine yet and the thought of ever having to move it is humbling.

    When that day comes, it will be ugly and involve contractor bags, a reciprocating saw, and buying lots of friends their very own cases of beer.
