So you do you top a week finishing with a Guinness World Record for the Deadlift?  How about squatting 858 raw the very next day and then totaling 2000+ in 2 hrs the following week?

As I mentioned last week my training over the next month is going to be spotty at best with vacation schedules, overseas travel for work, and bunch of other things.

This week’s Burger certainly qualifies as an EPIC burger as that is its actual name.  Albeit I did order with extra patties as always.  This burger comes from Killer Burger in Portland Or.  Every Burger at Killer Burger comes standard with Bacon!  This one also features a nice portion of some really well done Pulled Pork and house Cole Slaw.  Add some cheese, BBQ Sauce, and a couple large patties and the stock bacon and you have some burger heaven.  While this one was messy to eat the flavor and he fresh steam and aroma rising off the burger the entire time was well worth it.

Note the size of my hand in comparison to the burger in the background.
