Avengers. Mt.Rushmore of Avengers T-Shirt. It has Avengers superheroes instead of the presidents on Mt.Rushmore. I hope you have that clearly now. I am pretty sure I got this shirt at Wal-Mart. Flip-Flops... I watched out for my back on Front squats and especially on Block Pulls. I used a belt on Block Pulls and I only tightened it enough so that I could still fit my hand through it. This allowed me to get into a good position while still giving me enough back protection. (I know that the belt, especially being loose, doesn't help much with actual back support, but is more for intra-abdominal pressure. It is a psychological thing for me.)

Flip-Flops... Training felt great today. Shoulders were a little sore from yesterday but I managed to complete all reps/sets required for the day. I am really starting to get into this new training style. I know it will get harder the next couple weeks as intensity and volume change, but hopefully my body will be ready for the adaptation.
