LOL at me being a tease. I'm not a tease. I always perform....
Here are my plans for winter break:
Dec 19- Dec 21 Tucson AZ
Dec 21-Dec 27 Atlanta GA
Dec 28- Jan 2 NYC
Jan 2- Jan 4- Atlanta GA
Sometime between the 4th and the 15th- Portland, OR
January 15- Tucson AZ
Portland is not yet set. It depends who's gonna be in town, and more importantly, who can put me up for a couple of days. During that time period, if I'm not in Portland, I'd just stay in atl for a couple more days, though I will certainly make it out to PDX for at LEAST a long weekend. It all depends on who can put me up. I do dishes, pay for my food there, and sleep naked, so those are pretty good reasons to put me up.

Done in about 90 minutes. Could have been quicker but was BSing around and stuff.
I drew upon several people for inspiration during these sets. Troy is one of them. I thought of how he commented that legs are pretty mental, you gotta believe you can do it. That gave me motivation. I thought of zack and some others on the forum. I also thought of Ronnie Coleman, someone I draw upon alot. I was sayin "Time to go to war baby, time to go to war" before the 850 or so pounds leg press. I was so stoked to be able to do hacks too. I freakin love those. My gym doesn't have one, so whenever I have an opportunity to play with one I use it and go pretty damn deep. Legs are fun.
Gotta get those wheels bigga, they ain't big enough yet
