I was wiped out yesterday due to overwork on Saturday. The rest helped on Sunday but I still felt fatigued today. It is what it is. Later...

You might've been wiped out, but a great session, Fred!

[Fred J]

Thanks Oldster! Lifting is what it is at a kinda beat up 70 years old.

I have read parts of your log from years ago. I was not lifting or on this forum back then. You had some great times going back then and you were pretty darn strong. I hope you are doing well now and things are going your way. It would be great to see you lifting again but I know how life can kick your ass at times or your attention goes else where.

EDIT: I just found your log post. Glad you started again.

[Oldster1]

Yeah, years and mileage have a way of beating us up. It was fun back in the day, but now I have a second career and give it most of my time. Lifting is something I do if I'm not hurting or exhausted from late nights.

Sure would enjoy handling some big poundage's again!

I skipped my last lift day due to fatigue and too many things to do.

👌 sometimes sometimes extra rest is what you need.

[Bill Anders]

Life. It's that silly thing called life. And lifting isn't it. It's just for making life better.

Get after it when you can, Fred.

[Fred J]

Yep being busy in retirement has it's good and bad points so I will do the best I can.

This set the mood...
