Words of wisdom if I have ever heard it! You still have the squat mojo Mr B. so be thankful for what you have.

I gotta tell ya as an old guy being down on the floor is one of the toughest things to deal with for me. Great job training and enjoy that...

I know what a problem the shoulders can be. The only press for me that is pain free most of the time is the flat bench. Does doing a limited range...

Thanks Bill! I have to get an Echo cardiogram tomorrow so another appointment. I hope this one turns out better than the last. Get to them...

Those having had a pause are harder than just dropping down and back up aren't they? Good effort!

Great pull. That's a lot of work. How long do you think it takes to recover from that?

Thanks guys it has been rough lately. When we took him to the vet we had no idea it was that bad. This is also one year to the day since our...

I am starting to understand. Keep lifting Carson as it does a body good as the saying goes.

Thanks Bill as I am coping much better today. As IronMike said in a previous post...lift heavy things and keep moving so I will until I can't.

Yes I totally agree. I just wished I had been more diligent about it in the past.

Sometimes less is more and probably also shows you have not approached your limit yet.

A very nice Squat PR. Good work!

Today I walked 2 miles in 40 minutes. I bet I haven't walked 2 miles consecutively in 40 years. I used to walk/run regularly until the mid eighties...

You looked like you were good for more with 275.

Thanks Bill...more to think about that's for sure. I am thinking heavy Bench/Squat on Sunday with light Bench/heavy Pulls/light Squat on...

Jerry do you have any smaller weights than 2-1/2 pounds? I made a couple one pound plates so I could move up either 2 or 3 pounds at a time. I have...

Exactly! Good luck with yours also Lars. Enjoy your weekend!

Definitely some great ideas to think about and plan for. You are certainly very strong doing that! I like Marty Gallagher and have been watching...

Something along these lines.

I have never done pin presses but starting on those pins from a dead stop sounds like it would be harder to me Jerry so take that into consideration....

I have had "Madman Across the Water" stuck in my head for the last week. Thanks Mark!

I have just started with a lighter day during a normal week also. You are right about recovery.
