-50-50-10 punishment was because i was late to a practice… it consists of 50 push ups, 50 sit ups (in any amount of sets/reps) and 10 laps around the baseball field (~2-3mi). i ran it very slowly and treated it like an extensive warm up best i could
-this was my best squatting session ever, as 5x5@250 was my previous best
