You've been putting in some strong work Jerry! Keep it going!!

Saturday 7/1/4
Had Grandson over, he did straight bar sqts, loaded.
I did one trip with the farmer walk handles.
Then set up the viking press and we both did 3 sets.
It sure is great seeing the progress possible as a teenager. I did this with my son 35 years ago too. Seems the boys always beat the old man.
I went to breakfast on Wednesday with a group of retired mechanics I worked with. One in a sling for shoulder surgery, one recently had a hip replaced and another a knee. I know I'm a candidate for a shoulder but even though I can lift what I used to, I'm doing shoulder rehab stuff on off days.
Glad to be able to connect with people that think alike.

I kept the sqt the same as last week, as Shugg had suggested nit to push them while trying to improve the DL.
