    took some time to rehab...shoulder feeling better started benching ...light...worked up to 205 last workout. I am back on SS trying this squat three times a week thing, supposed to hit 3X5 for 430...sounds doable. very hot and humid for NY this time of year gonna sweat like a monster..gym has no AC but who cares!
