Lifting to Live

[Fred J]

Congrats on your lifts Bill as your all weights continue to soar! All those big plates look pretty cool on those rack pulls.

[Bill Anders]

Thanks Fred. It does look crazy. The stretch goal this year is to add another plate to it, but I'm not letting chasing that get in the way of everything else. Plus, I couldn't possibly do that with my bumper plates out on the end, could I? I would have to get a matching pair of 45s, right? And how would I sell that to my bride?

There's always Fathers Day!

Notes — Another trail crew day scheduled this week, so I'm shifting workouts to get them in. This was to be Monday's workout. I am still beat from last week's total volume and Friday's trail crew session; I really want to spend the rest of the day on the couch, but I will get this done.
- OP - Heavy Triples across. First set was rough, second set was smooth, third and fourth sets were downright explosive. No idea where that came from, but I'll take it!
- BP - Light sets across. All good.
