I like your doorstop Biker. But a 5 lb would have done the trick.

Moved several couches for family today. Uhaul, a horse farm, second story narrow hallway college apartment and the dump were all involved. So all the weights tonight felt a bit heavy.

Feeling good.

Paul, looking as good as I can. Kainen turned 18 on Monday and my youngest got his license yesterday. So things are good.

Putting in a lot of consistent hard work… I assume the back is feeling better! Sled pulls and stones… guess it’s time for me to break out the slosh pipe…
This guy’s just warming up. How’s your son these days?
Paul, my back is feeling great. Must be the stone lifting. My son bought me a bottle of bourbon for Father’s Day. So I may get the slosh pipe out tonight.
Biker, I wish it was just warming up. I’m just trying to get a few ok workouts in a couple times a week. Thanks for asking about my son. He’s getting to be a beast. Hopefully he’ll be squatting and deadlifting 600 by next year. I don’t even try to keep up anymore.

1a. Bench a bunch with 2 block and bench daddy

The bench daddy really helped the sore shoulders tonight. I hope using it for awhile will get me back to pain free regular benching.

My wife and I were front row at the U2 concert last night. They put on a good show.
