Felt really good about the squats, however my deadlifts were a big challenge to get through today after increasing the weight on the squats. I was glad I made it through to the end and finished with the 45lbs on the lunges. The lunges felt like it took so much willpower to get through today. Making it through the lunges today was strictly visualizing competing, and remembering to do whatever it takes to be my best everyday.
