3X15X80 didn't try harder, calfs (calves?) were burning with these :(

no cardio, had to get back for a meeting.
 
ta, surprisingly DOM free today. Calories were a good bit higher than normal, does that make a difference?? Hoping it's not the calm before the storm. :p
 
Chowing down can certainly help reduce DOMS because the body has more than what it needs to repair... which is why getting huge is good for two reasons. :)
 
Ah well, busy night. Voted and back session
