Thanks Fred. This week I went to my cardiologist for my birthday annual check up. I use him as my primary as I'm not a fan oft Dr's. They did ekg,carotid artery tests and blood work. They said everything is fine. I do take 2 BP meds ,BP was 124/68 HR 62. I can't do want I used to in many ways, but can still do want needs to get dine.
I wish all us "elders" a Happy Labor Day, you earned it.

Decided to use the SSB since it's easier to get in the rack than the 85lb Camber bar. The bar is big and clumsy to get back in place.
Did the SSB without the box, I'll see if I can make some progress with it.

I was going to DL today but I seemed to get a muscle pull in my right hamstring after doing the sqts on Wednesday. I thought it was a case of soreness but I know I can barely bend down
Did the DB bench and pulldowns. I will try and do some high rep SLDL on Monday

For some reason the background on SS forums has changed to black it's only on this website.
