Solid work! I do get scared your going to crush your rib cage on every bench rep though… lol.

Thanks!

Maybe if I was leaner then I would crush something, but don’t worry - if it does I’ll probably mention it in the notes section and not post the video.

I was so sure I’d done seven, which I had…there were quite a lot of hand signals being made just outside of the shot. I should just do 10 next time.

The mid set conversation was one of the best things I’ve ever seen. I’M TOO SWOLE TO COUNT PROPERLY, FUCK Y’ALL HATERS.
