Now introducing…

…a curiously strong, proprietary blend of training, witticisms, and tomfoolery…

…an unnecessarily arduous expedition to a relatively reasonable level of strength…

…a change so powerful that it could alter the very title of the log in which it arose…

This is: Return of the Muskrat

Olympic Lift Mobility
65 lbs x bunch of stuff + stretching
(finally got a clean-grip overhead squat even though it wasn’t the best form ever)

You starting crossfit ??

Hahaha no definitely not. Crossfit is pretty expensive; a normal gym membership is less than half the price for essentially the same thing (weights and cardio). I’m just starting a bit of Olympic lifting. I’ve been trying to get better mobility so that I can do the full lifts

Just got a nice new Bama hat at the University store so I won’t have to wear that nasty Tennessee one anymore. This might be worse though :joy:

:+1: I’m good with 'Bama. My 16 y.o. son actually has a Crimson Tide comforter for his bed since he wanted to go there at one time. At least they aren’t stealing a better school’s look…

Whatcha got planned for tonight? Does it involve whisky?

Haha it very well might involve whisky. My brother is taking his MCAT today and we are celebrating his 21st birthday (happened a few days ago, but he was busy studying). All of our closest friends are getting together and celebrating
