    Seeing the way you went after and got the 500DL, I'm sure that you'll continue to have success in reaching your goals.

    I'm looking forward to following.

    Pendlay rows 245*6 form was a little imperfect

    Pendlay rows 235*6 good
    Pendlay rows 235*6

    I changed up the rep scheme on the Pendlay's I think I'll stick with 4*6 for a while.

    You're strong guy for sure. I've got a gym in the garage outside. Nothing like having your own stuff.

    Thanks! I was going to say what happens in Lencho's journal stays in Lencho's journal but I guess I can't play the moral high ground on that one.

    I haven't seen that episode. Is this the infamous episode that triggered Chef leaving?
