Thanks, Simon! I truly appreciate that!
Well, here's how I did in the competition. I didn't win, but I didn't lose either. I was one of 4 to finish all the events, out of 8 total...
Bench: 180, 205 x 5; 230 x 5, 5, 5, 5, 5 Without a doubt, bench press is my most challenging lift to properly progress. I think after this cycle,...
