Bench press has started slipping big time, but squat actually felt good considering how tough of a weekend it was.

Felt considerably “stronger” than I did coming off this same trip last year despite even a higher amount of difficult hiking volume. I believe I went into this trip in significantly better hiking shape than years past and that paid off.

Tough weekend with Early morning alarm clocks, freezing temps and big elevation gains, but felt pretty decent in the gym.
