My wife squatted 80lbs x 5 last night. I know it's not much, but it's awesome for two reasons: 1) she's getting enthusiastic about building strength, and 2) 45 lbs was too heavy for her when we started.

That, and she finally let me set up a garage gym.

I can finally press again. But several months off from pressing makes for unenjoyable presses.

SQUATZ AND OATZ is a 4chan meme.

Regarding the pressing earlier in the forum...managed a 110 lb giant DB for 14 reps this weekend. Dumbass PR - I was training with the 150 the last few weeks since I "guessed" it to be 100-110. Well I was off, but I got 150x2 so that was cool.

Next up - 225 strict press.

On saturday it was finally time for me increase to 100kg(220lbs) on my benchpress. Now this wasnt my 1RM as I havent tested it yet (and no plans to yet). But doing 3 sets of 5 reps at 100kg(220lbs) was a milestone for me! Such a nice round number in Kilo ! :-)

I canceled my xfit gym membership and joined this gym. https://isystemsgym.com/Home_Page.php. It is only $25 a month, so I can afford to drive to Wichita Falls more often.

This picture from your new gym's website is awesome:

So that's what he's been up to. Last I heard he was trying to avoid being thrown in jail for not assaulting a border guard. That's pretty cool how they vacuum-packed the foam into his calf.

(Also: I'm not really a sci-fi guy but the Rifters trilogy is awesome.)

yup. Pretty neat. He did manage to not go to jail, but he is basically banned from entering the US.
And indeed, the man's work is awesome.

That cartoon is pretty epic! :-)
