WOW mam Doc you got a good log going.....way to go looks good on weight going up and the most important intensity. Not sure if you posted somewhere in the begining but what are your stats? Oh are you using any products/supplements or juice if you do not mind me asking you sure got it in you to keep up the good work.
KEEP IT UP! you the man, You are traning those legs good and hard....are you pelvic thrusting at the top of the squat "do you know what I mean" not to get weird just my football coach years ago told me to do this and sqeeze ass at the end "top" of squat and it really helped gluts get a good pump!
