I can imagine what it did to your head!! I got just a little sensation of a headache near the end, but it went away quickly.

I am betting that this afternoon or tomorrow I will start feeling it in my mid back and trapz

Appreciate it Jay! Trapz are very upset with me right now, along with the hams and glutes! The positive is the lower back "seems" to have come through the challenge unscathed

Your Benching just keeps getting bigger and bigger and makes me green with envy. 6 reps even when it was feeling heavy!! Floor Presses were by far no slouch either.

Just keep doing what your doing buddy!

Yes Jay I believe you will

[Hunterace]

That'll be late next year though, once I'm bulking and have more fuel and mass. Don't think I'm going to add 50lbs while cutting !
