880 swings is way too many. You need to cut back before you become insane and start a new religion. I'm just saying.

Aaron, It was my intention to do 100 rep sets (2 1/2 min), but I had to concede, I could only last 80 reps. But with only 1 min rest, it did the business.

It's more about mental than physical, anyway. I'm not ready to give up this body just yet...I got to do what I got to do....I'm just saying.

I'm counting down to Oct., I can't wait!
