thanks!

Man, I still haven't gotten a bodyweight overhead squat yet. You and all the other newcomers really need to slow down in your progress before you start to make me look even worse.

Way to go, Andrew!

Here's something to chase.

1. 15 reps with bodyweight
2. 1 rep with bodyweight + 50lbs.

Giddy up.
