The weight is slowly ramping up for the Old School Iron Gym Summer Showdown. My squat is feeling great especially with doing reps in full gear. It's funny how much I wasn't looking forward to this but I can tell it has helped me tremendously (other than almost passing out after every set haha). I'm feeling pretty fucking ready to smash through a 2,000lb total. As long as I play everything smart and choose my attempts wisely, there should be zero issue.

Gym started to close so I had to end my session early. Whenever this happens, I'll usually add the rest of my exercises to my accessory day.
