Finishers: 2 rounds of  135 DLs x 20. After the last round a gym tart doing her spandex tightening cable cross overs told me I was bending the bar when the weights clanked at the bottom. I was told I did not have to do it like that. I told her gee thanks then did 5 squat cleans in her face without making a sound.

Mile run (8:15) then stretches. Beside the tart, unfortunately.
