Skid (Marc's) log

I turn 61 tomorrow - Think I'll buy some 10 pound plates and make 2-115lb dumbbells for a present. I have hex 120's (that I used today) but they are so bulky I don't like to use them.

Last week I pushed the deadlifts a little too hard, and paid for that this week. I just can't do heavy deadlifts every week. I need two weeks to fully recover. Plus my back was a bit sore already too.

I'm on vacation from my job for the next two weeks. Spent the day welding up a trailer for my quad to use around the farm. I have a full slate of projects for the next two weeks. I'll need to return to work to get some rest!

375-6 - Did a back off set just to get some work in.
