Gus is Pressing

[Michael Wolf]

Visits to WFAC are always full of cool surprises. Everyone remembers Gus (Mrs. Virginia Rizan) from our video on her (It's Never Too Late!) a month or so back.

I get asked sometimes why, with the very limited time off that I have, I would come from Manhattan to Wichita Falls. This is why. Today, I got to see Gus press for the second time. A lifetime PR of 12 lbs. She definitely earned that PWO Vino today!

Gus kicks the asses of half the people on this board.

I really appreciate the creativity these coaches are showing.

You guys are awesome. Not as awesome as Gus, though. Tell her that some anonymous guy in europe has watched this first thing in the morning and he cannot remember the last time he smiled before having his coffee.

More than half of us.

I quote this!

You need to do a special entry on http://startingstrength.adamwathan.me/ and stick Gus right at the top.

And we have a middle-aged guy in Toronto who can't do the lifts because his shoulder hurts.

I think Gus needs her own T-shirt with some snappy phrase on it.

Maybe something like ".....because you're weak, that's why!"

In all seriousness, I think what Gus is doing is great. And I think the perfect avenue to promote these clips and SS is at "Assisted Living" places.

Her videos do a great job of helping me get rid of my bullshit excuses to not get under the bar.
