Yes, you can yourself be sorry, I can be sorry you, your girl or wife can be sorry you, but rival never will stint on you. Therefore go and continue training.

good to see the training back. Be more conservative next time!

Chalk your knees or even your wraps especially those THPs bro...stops the buggers sliding round as you squat and cuttin ya.

Remember...Toasted is good and we (well most of us) get our best results when we feel that level of toastedness 8)

^ Ditto, did you get any welts this time?

Oh and P.S Calves & Abs are strong :P :pfft:

welts not so much, but the thp are made outta a stiffer material, which i can only describe as when u squat, and the wraps move its like a row of sharks teeth biting into ya, its pretty groovy sensation! :grin:
