A funny thing happened in the gym on Monday. They let me have Alexa play a song with my heaviest lift. I usually choose a classical piece like Bach's Tacata and Fugue in D minor. Sometimes I pick the Hallelujah Chorus. But then I might choose "We are the Champions". In other words, I rarely pick something that features grunting and growling. So, they often tease me about my choices. My wife and I clean the gym twice a week. She often picks Tina Turner's "The Best". So, did for this some started to tease me but I said, this is my wife's favorite song and she sings in to me. They stopped the teasing and started cheering. The weight went right up.

This is the first time I've seen you post that the prowler is "fun".
Good luck with the knee.

PRs are fun in whatever way they are attained. I was going to move up 5 pounds but Sully convinced me to jump 25 pounds. The left knee always goes first. For now, it doesn't hurt but in a few weeks, we should see what happens.
