Is the lifting you are doing with the team? At first glance it looks similar to what I have read about your program before college.
Good luck in college and enjoy it as it goes fast.

Right now since I am with the Mid-D guys lifting has kinda gotten push back and I am just doing a little on the side to keep up with it until we get a little more into the routine.
What are badger miles and mushroom?
Haha, well we keep track of volume in a strange way that I won’t go into because… well… it is our secret. And the mushroom is my personal touch to the system.
haha ok, sounds interesting…
