30 Minutes of Stretching

Comments: Very good workout, took about 64 minutes. Form felt a little off on the lighter sets of oly squats. I haven't tried going for a max on these in a long time and the heaviest I've done is only 335lbs. Almost at 405lbs on these, maybe next time. Really pleased with the rack pulling against heavy band tension (325lbs). Got to try out my new APT straps and they work great. I was shocked to get 275 double overhand and then getting up to 405lbs for a double with straps. I can feel my back growing on these. Powered through the bavarian lifts and abs. I ordered 50' of 1.5" manila rope to do arm-over-arm pulls on DE UB days. Supposedly it will arrive tomorrow. Also my PR charity fund for Action Against Hunger has broken the $300 mark and I'm aiming for $400 by the end of the year.
