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.

Your weights are moving up nicely.

Sick with a cold or something yesterday and today I am doing reps on the Ivory throne but still got this lift day in. No rehab today. 3-17-2023 ...

As long as it did not fall on your foot you can jump right back on. Have a great Friday and/or St. Patrick day if you're into that sort of thing...

If I don't eat well enough before lifting it shows up in a poor workout even if I ate well the day/night before. Good luck and eating some oatmeal...

Ditto and I hope your new job works out great for you!

No not given up just have had a lot of things going on and some back tweaks. I am hoping to get back to more back work soon. Thanks for asking.

There's some great effort here Richard. Do I see a 300 lb. squat pr? Congrats.

Thanks Bill. The truth is several times lately after postponing lift days I have not wanted to lift on the days that I did. Not wondering why I...

Congratulations on your granddaughter Bill! I know you are a proud papa right now.

It's been a busy week even with not feeling up to par. You would think being retired I would have plenty of "off" time well let me tell ya it ain't...

Hang in there Mr. B. you have recovered from worse!

Didn't you used to make a mash similar to the Efferding meal with that broth?
