    Sully always seems to have the right perspective.

    BTW, I've done my best work at about 42F to 48F.
    Perhaps I is my substantial layer of store energy.

    Nice. I think we need some patients with progress on that movement.

    I think I could have gone heavier on all of the lifts. But then, it's all fun. You are right about patience. I was never particularly coordinated. I must concentrate more on the press than any of the others.

    Pretty good day. I achieved my second PR this week.

    Squat: 70 x 5; 160 x 3; 210 x 1; 221 x 5 x 2; 123 x 5 x 2 (paused)
    Bench: 45 x 5; 95 x 3; 135 x 1; 156 x 1; 170 x 1; 185 x 1 (PR)
    Prowler: 45 x 6 x 4 New and heavier prowler. We used lighter weights than before and will go up until I reach the proper weight.

    Another good day. No PR's but most lifts went well

    Squat: 70 x 5 (paused); 160 x 3; 210 x 2; 240 x 1; 256 x 2; 123 x 5 x 2 (paussed)
    Press: 45 x 5; 75 x 3; 100 x 1; 112 x 2 x 2; 81 x 8 x 3
    Dead: 135 x 3; 225 x 2; 315 x 1; 220 x 1; 350 x 1

    Medium Day is always my favorite because I get to do 1+ on the Dead. 330 was my top. I did 350 and almost tried 375. Next time I will.
