12 years ago when I did the meet I deadlifted 275. Weighed 15 lbs more, been trying to prove that was just fat. Thrilled for today.

leg curls
Apartment opened up a fitness center. Think I’ll spend some time doing some rows or arm curls.

I lost strength.
I lost strength.
I work hard and eat lots, gained a couple pounds in the past couple of weeks. I lost strength.
Did a couple of pullups. Then hit failure. I can only do a couple pullups, they’re very hard.

They are very hard.
On days where they are simply too much I like to do pulldowns, even at less than bodyweight.

Took a week off from the gym. Got back yesterday. Decided to try a volume system. Nothing special, just load up as many sets as I can take.
