Bar Belles 3 white light quest to 1000 RAW

90 Fatigue = 9

Quality. One rep at a time you climb up. Keep your head down and plow forward. All you need to care about is being +1.

Maybe of some females, but not this one, lol. Once I rep 1/2 my bodyweight I might stop whining. But I doubt it. (the whining part)

You're close enough on that depth, and now know how to dial it it.

Strong money set.

Thanks! I was shaky on the 135's... which was weird, so I didn't expect 11, but I was happy with it

So did you! I did those crunches, sit ups, whatever you want to call them as you suggested, by holding that 25 lb straight up. Not easy (which is good). Only 10 reps. More next time
