Good to get some work in. Hope you are feeling better!

[BrooklynJerry]

Thanks Fred. I do feel better doing some exercise. I have reread Rips article about what happens when you train as you get older and realize I'm in that group for sure. As for me feeling sick, it may be a summer cold or something worse but I don't have a fever so I'm hoping it will pass.

I went up 5lb s on DL. Damn I thought I would get 3sets of 5. No way Jose. Dropped to 185 only had 2. WTF.

[Bill Anders]

That's always the frustration with the first stuck DL. I've dropped to below my warmup weights and still had it stuck to the floor no matter what.

You'll get it.
