*My spotter said that he didn't help at all, but i felt that i was stuck at the bottom and really thought he was helping. Maybe it was just a mental thing...but i couldn't give it to myself. Honestly im pretty surprised i got 265 up, i thought i would max out around 250.

I feel like I spent all day at the gym as I gave myself plenty of rest between the heavy sets, but I had fun and can't wait to start the program. Hopefully these numbers will go up in 16 weeks time.
