Starting the new year with a PR, though a PR in a niche lift that I’ve only been doing for what, less than a year? Still, 137 kilos is a hair over 300 pounds, so something of a milestone.

46th birthday. This is what I looked like this morning. Sure I could get a more flattering pic posing and waiting till after I lifted and stuff, but this is what I really honestly look like normally.

I’m starting to “get” doing deadlifts with a belt, and developing a proper feel for when the bar’s about to hit the floor, which somehow got totally thrown off by the belt.

Able to do the cleans with no elbow pain. Not sure if avoiding cleans and doing lighter pullups for a few weeks fixed it, or if it would have gotten better if I’d just kept going as normal, but whatever… I’ll take it, and hope it stays that way.

Also did a Zercher quarter-squat with 151 kg, just picking the bar up off the sawhorses and standing with it for like a second. Felt kinda heavy.
