    Hey Jerry, we missed the snow you guys got down in the big city, but we did get the cold. Now it looks like we're gonna get hit with snow and/or ice starting tomorrow. How are those partials working for you, I see you're using some significant weight. I used partial squats for a time a couple years ago, got the idea from an article on Walter Thomas' training as a master lifter.

    Thanks for reading Fifty, I'm really hoping that the partials do some good for me. I'm not following the program exactly as it was written. I added in some belt sqts. I'm feeling pretty good bodywise now even after all the snow clean up.

    You are moving some nice weight there Jerry. What height is the #1 pin?

    Thanks Jerry that's good to know. I think that it's good to pull anyway you can and not hurt yourself.

    My right shoulder was aching all day.Took some Motrin earlier in the day, no help. I put on some Tiger Balm before going into the garage. I did some of the arc presses with a 15lb bar hanging from chains before the seated press. Seemed to help loosen the joint. Right now it feels fine,seems to act up over night.
