  1. Rudy, what is this, cardio for weightlifters? Why you make my heart beat so fast?

    WL
    155 (145/135)
    Hit 165 easy except for power position. Was using strict vertical power position. Made this very hard.

    Acc
    1 – 195 (185/175).
    2 – 105. Really need to work on these. Was getting a little rebend in catch.

    Strength

    Tried to get my HR up a bit and only rest 1:00 between sets.
    Upper back gets so rounded by the end of each set.
