Well it would be easier if you wouldn't put all this pressure on me.

[Sean Herbison]

Still, with the end of 2017 upon us, I am seriously contemplating taking next week to try and do a little self-meet, get some videos for the Internet's enjoyment, and see if I've made any progress at all.

Do it. I'm maxing on Christmas, join me. Like, internet-wise though.

If you insist. I'll probably be 3 or 4 days behind you. Now I just need to find a cameraman.

[Eric Larousse]

skillin are you still doing BJJ along with this. You seem to be making pretty good progress here.

Hi, Eric. Thanks! No, I've been off the mats for almost 2 years now. I'd love to get back to it some day if and when my schedule permits.

The loft is no more. These days, I coach lifters in a real gym (a nice one, with exceedingly few squat rack curlers, round plates, real barbells, in which chalk is provided and deadlifts are permitted to be put down). About half of my own lifting is done there, and the rest is done in a top secret, underground bunker (that sounds cooler than "my friend's basement," right?) where my equipment is presently set up.

[Mr. Bingley]

The Loft is dead.

Long Live The Loft!
