I’ve become a cheater. Assisted bench and pulling from blocks. What next?
cheating is winning.
training is looking great.
your son is a beast.
I am going to make a request - I have made before.
bottle a gallon of your tap water and send it to me.
I am thinking there is something in that water.
good work.
Kev, one gallon or two?
Had a great day. My wife and I walked through americas stone henge in Salem NH, visited a local brewery then had an early dinner. So I thought it would be nice to end the day with stone lifting.

If you have nothing going on; I have lots of projects at my house !!! Hope you and yours are well
I’d really like to help but I have to work on my tan. Sorry Paul.
Did some benching and pull-ups this morning. Nothing special. Have family coming over so I had to hit it early. Grilling, beers and pool for the rest of the day.

It was too hot out to lift stones so I headed down into the basement.
How is your tan coming ? hahaha… the grilling, beers and pool is one of my all time favorite workouts…I think I’ll do that one tomorrow ! Lifting looks solid as always Steve , have a good weekend.
Paul, my tan is spot on. I’ve been in the pool more this year than I ever have. Hope your workout goes well. Don’t forget the sunscreen.

Bench felt good but pulling 545 felt real heavy. I gave it one lame try and just took the weights off.

Awesome sauce…my best to both of you !
