Make sure you set the pins. Don't bother getting a spotter, unless you want some random ass dude from the gym playing grab a boob with your chest...Just set the pins, warm up right and get to business. 90% 100% 110%.

I'm stoked.
PS, wrist still hurts. was feeling better yesterday. was feeling worse after 5 sets of 5 banded deadlifts at 225 + tightly choked bands ... which was probably not the wisest decision I've ever made.  |
Glad to hear Dokk. Maybe he can get your ass in gear. I love the choked bands, but beware I've all but ruined my mini's. When they get choked and quaded up they tend to get jacked up...
