Week 1 - Max Effort

Still kept it pretty light as it's my first week but at least I have my starting point to keep adding weight over the next few weeks.

The squats felt awesome; strong and deep. My bench and my terminated set of power cleans were a different story though. My bicep tie-in pain from either grippers or reverse bending (I'm not sure which) held me back though. I need to get my sleeves outta storage. Maybe get some Rehband ones if I can be sure of the sizing.

One good thing is I played with my Blob50 and 50# L Blob and they felt good and light. I never got any air but I can tell it's close with both. I did assisted lifts and holds with each for a few seconds. It's just around the corner baby!!
