Just got done reading Strongman: The Doug Hepburn Story by Tom Thurston. It was a phenomenal read. I definitely recommend it to anyone who loves the iron game. Hepburn was an amazing lifter and vastly unappreciated.

Squat: 335

I'm starting Hepburn's singles program progressing every workout as my body always it. I will be doing 8 singles every workout. If i get all 8 I will add weight to the bar for the next session. All lifts will be started at 90% 1RM

This will be cool to watch. I seriously considered running Doug's program during this recent cycle but opted out for Paul Carter's Lift-Run-Bang template while I do a long term cut. I wish you best. This will make you strong. Callador on the forum here started out doing Hep's plan and he (Callador) is a monster now . . .good on you!

Thanks Brian. I did Strong 15 and Big 15 for a cycle I like what Paul has to say. Haha I can only hope one day. How are your numbers on your cut?
