Hi.

If you want to be old, fast, and strong, welcome! I'll do my best to inform, inspire, and link to others.

Deadlift and Bench, with Bench Video

Deadlift and Bench, with Bench Video

Deadlift up to 335, Bench triples up to 205

Accessory: push downs 8 x 160 x 3

Weight after work: 164.5

Warm today--58 at 5:30 am--and the gym was hot. I only went to 335 on deadlift because I felt tight in my left hamstring (was headed to 385). Bench went well; 205 triples were strong.

Key takeaway today is that this is the second time in about ten days that I've done two workouts within 12 hours of each other; the reason: having to do the track workout when it got warm enough to do it, after work, which means that one workout ends at 6 p.m. and the following one starts at 6 a.m. If I'm going hard, it means that I am not able to recover sufficiently. Right now, it's 6 hours past the second workout's end, and I'm sore, tired, and just a touch cranky.

Need to follow my own advice and stop acting like a teenager. Recover!
