OK then Oldster, not the guy I was thinking of.
I missed it again today. This time I lost it at just below the sticking point, so it was a clear indication I was either not ready for 225 or was not recovered from my sojourn to Corvallis and back. Arrrgh, then maties. It now be like I said, ye be calling me Ahab as I trim the sails of the Pequod to go after the white whale, says I.
Some more rest from lifting this week but not jujitsu and maybe not some cardio either. We'll see. Then back cycle all my poundages about 20-30 lbs. and take another run at 225 in a few months. Thank you all for your unstinting encouragement in this effort. It will make the achievement of this all the sweeter when I do it.
