When you only hit 499 squats and not 500. Karl Gotch. Catch Wrestling.
Tried to post something about Catch Wrestling and Judo about 5 times now and it has failed every time. Don't be surprised if I accidentally flood your feed with the same post over and over.
Heat index was around 105 or something but we still got in a practice today anyway. I know I reiterate this a lot, but no AC.
