I was absolutely beat after this. I strayed a little from my plan since Neal was using double heavy bands today and figured I'd roll with it. I was planning on using a heavy and light band, but will do that next week.

I have to admit I was surprised I was able to unrack what I did today if the numbers all add up and even more surprised I didn't have a blow out and leak blood from my nose considering how heavy it all felt.

Week 8 / Day 1 - squatting against bands. We used two heavy bands today which made the tension ~380#'s at the top. Really effin heavy. Thank you to everyone that helped spot today and thank you @nealcotton for pushing me. #orlandobarbell #elitefts #eliteftsresilient #teamelitefts #underthebar #nubreednutrition #nubreedathlete #iamnubreed #box #bands #heavy #beard #persist #builtwithbrokenpieces #mastodon #metal #ace #metalace #gear #briefs #suit
