Disappointed that I STILL can't make a 5x5 on the 205lb.  But I'm resigned to the fact that I'll just have to keep chipping away at it. My accessory work has been lacking, so my goal is to now add more of that stuff in. It may mean squeezing in a couple of more days per week, but it has to be done. I had seen a leg workout put to the music of Katy Perry before and I tried it, but it was way too "dancy". I'm definitely NOT a dancer.  But then I found this one that I like much, much better. If I can get my phone to cooperate,  I'll link the video. It was killer, and I'm keeping it in my repertoire!
