Shoulder bugging me a little so going to take it easy the next couple of days and ice it some. Didn't do swings today...felt kinda weird doing my ladder sets and not doing the swings!

10-22-10

WAY to many days between workouts...gotta change this.
Jim started me on a new regime and then we decided to change it...having a hard time pressing the 35 for more than 1 rep...DANGIT!!!!!!
4 ladders today using the 35 for my 1 rep and then scaling down to the 26 for the rest.
Then I did 10 min of snatches.
I WILL not let that 35 beat me. I WILL be conquering that thing this time!!!
