And I could do 295 for five, but I couldn't do 315 for one.

So I took some very mild steroids, um, and like within a week I was doing [laughs] 325.

And I was like, "Well, you know, this is a good thing," right? And then, you know, and then so as I went to Michigan State, I continued to do that with other, you know, the whole variety of steroids.
14:41
Um, a- and really that's veering off the path.
