25 Minutes of Stretching

Comments: A long but excellent workout, took a bit over 85 minutes. Incredibly hot outside, sweating like crazy outside mowing and even inside the gym. The weight felt comfortable on my back while squatting. I was able to grind out reps which I had great difficulty doing in the past. I'm over the 200 kilo mark on squats and I know my legs will be sore tomorrow. Did better than expected on farmer's deads. I should have no problem with the 280lbs farmer's at the contest. Finished up with tough back and ab work.
