ut oh, someone is going to get strong (er)
^Yep. I would drive whatever distance it takes to train there.
Are you taking your son with you?
Looks like a place that you would love!
This is a very cool gym but a 70 minute round trip will keep it from being a regular thing. And Kainen likes the place as well so weāll buddy up every time I go. I really want to try the yoke walk the next time I go. I forgot to mention they have dbs up to 200 lbs.

Sorry but I did a little jogging. Please donāt judge me harshly.
Jogging? Was someone chasing you? If not, you are dead to meā¦
If so, lucky for them that they didnāt catch you.
Well I suppose it is good to have the ability to chase someone or run away from someone when you need to. But thatās called sprinting not jogging, priorities please. Also good to know if you are ever hanging off a building or cliff, that you can pull yourself up.
Iāve never seen 200 lb dumbbells. Youāre gonna break some records lifting at that place.
My neighbor sent me this picture she took of me jogging.

Boys had a 9:30 PM hockey game. Didnāt get to bed until midnight. I think theyāre trying to kill me.
What a wonderful neighbor!
My, you have aged since Iāve seen you last !
LOLā¦too much hair and not enough legs.
Kainen and I hit the cool gym in Concord earlier today. I felt great but missed deadlifting 545. It just wouldnāt come off the floor today. Iād never used the yoke before. What a crazy exercise. I felt like I was walking and wrestling with the contraption. Definitely different than a farmers carry. We looked online when we left and the yoke weighs 185 lbs. So what I thought was around 405 was 545 which made me feel less like a sissy. And I donāt think anyone uses the yoke. The were spider webs on it. I brought my wrist straps so I could row the 200 lb db.

You are just really super strong. That 200-lb DB: Does it have a super thick grip area? We have one of those big DBs in my gym (not sure the weight) but the grip width is so damn wide that I canāt imagine anyone could get a hand around it to lift it!

Yep I bet the word sissy comes to all our minds when we read your log 
Sissy ! hahahaā¦ your own private yoke very coolā¦I have nothing more to sayā¦a 200lb db rowā¦thatās me and 30lb db to bootā¦hope all is well, Steve!
KP, Iāve seen those circus dbs but all of the dbs at this gym have normal grip width. Next time I want to try to do a set of Kroc rows with a 200.
Minimaltec, I am emotionally fragile.
Paul, it appears no one likes the yoke. Glad I could show it some love.
