Can you invoke some sort of emancipation?

ha, I guess I could try. Maybe I'm too serious trying to meet goals of more and more at my age. ? IDK. Other people are not that serious. Its cold, its snowing, everything hurts, I'm tired and yesterday was stress (having someone's six) & so I didn't eat all day. LIFE and OLDER AGE. I dont do well in winter. I've missed a bunch of week 2 lifts, but I guess it happens! I still went in to train.

Words of a lifter. Anything else is a wannabe.

If you aren't trying to add weight to the bar--somehow in some manner--you're a poser.

You are not a poser.
