    Campus gym opened today. Masks are required but they have straight bars and plates that actually weigh what is says on the plate. So I guess I'm training here again. Unless WA shuts down again.

    Squats didn't feel right until Thursday this week. Going to nut up and try to keep the LP alive when I go in on Sunday. All other lifts feel fine with the LP. Except cleans. God I hate cleans.

    Looking strong. Not sure I'll be able to stay ahead of your squat and deadlift. Is a 700lb deadlift a goal of yours?

    Yeah, I've been looking forward to 700 for a while now. 635 is the most I've pulled, so it's just 65 pounds away. Just a matter of time...

    Dude, finally that someone makes me feel competitive on the forums!
    I'm trying to hit that 800 lb deadlift, but I'm 100 lb behind you. I am watching you man O_O lol
    How long did it take you from 420 x 5 to get to 550 x 5 ?
