It wasn’t that bad! You are going to whip some ass at your meet. Keep on it!
A little short ripping never hurt anyone…
It eventually happens to everybody. When’s the meet?
No one was harmed, in the ripping of the shorts::)) At least I know I hit depth.

20 days out today. Doc’s appointment in AM; 192 BW, after an overnight fast for bloodwork. I’m down though, to 5’ 8 3/4" tall ::))…yes, the nurse made sure to count the 3/4.
Just missed ‘obese’ in the BMI: 28. So I’ve got more work to do.
Onward and Upward.
Your deads looked strong. It was more impressive that you did without the gangster rap in the background. Train hard, eat, and get rest. You should be fine.
