Week 1 Day 2: 9/28/11

Finally my smartphone decided to be smart and work properly today! Rebooted it before I got to the gym to make sure everything was reset.

Today I guess is the light day for Mad Cow.
The weights did feel very light today. Did not even bother taking my belt out of the gym bag.

I still do not like lifting on the squat rack and prefer the power cage but it was taken.
