I took it easy today because I am going to compete in a RAW powerlifting meet this Saturday, October 1st. RAW means no bench shirt or squat/deadlift suit. Knee wraps and belt only. I haven't competed since last October because of a Hernia surgery I had in May, so this will allow me to see where my strength levels are at.
Wish me luck!

Stay tuned to my upcoming workouts and see some crazy progress.

I took it easy today because I am going to compete in a RAW powerlifting meet this Saturday, October 1st. RAW means no bench shirt or squat/deadlift suit. Knee wraps and belt only. I haven't competed since last October because of a Hernia surgery I had in May, so this will allow me to see where my strength levels are at.
Wish me luck!

*I had a difficult time getting into position on the Curls because of the insane pump I had! I don't know if GAKIC directly affects the pump, or if I got it because of all of the extra sets and reps I was able to do? Either way, GAKIC is AWESOME! Stay tuned to my upcoming workouts and see some crazy progress.
