First time deadlifting in three weeks so it was a big reset. Hardest part wasn't the lift it was my baby bottom smooth, tender hands. Good thing the gym I'm at has bottom end Eleiko bars. If it was the bars at the old gymI swear I would have degloved. Do yourself a favour and don't look that up.

Road my mountain bike with backpack 3 miles to the grocery store. Loaded up with 30lbs of groceries, then road back. When I got to my apartment, I slung the bike on my shoulder (45lbs) and with the groceries, carried 75lbs up 3 flights of stairs. Then went for an hour walk before dinner. A normal day. I sold my car 2 years ago. I am turning 60 next month. I tried obesity, it didn't work for me. Sweat is friendlier than fat.

That is TRULY remarkable my friend!

I've got heart and lung disease, so I use it for an excuse to be lazy. I did some yard work, with only one break, which was HUGE for me, as a year ago that would have been impossible. But my new meds are helping, and my mind is getting better about physical activity.

Bonus: the yard looks much better!

It's not the failure that bothers me, it's the failing at a weight that should be a no brainer. Just have to get it next week.
