“A coward thinks he’ll always live
If he keeps himself from strife;
Old age leaves no rest and peace,
Though spears may spare his life”
that deadlift was soooooooo close!! I’d count it as good.
ski pic is hilar - enjoy the vacation ![]()
Hey DF.
Really close on that DL. Might have been red-lighted because of the knee behavior. But, again, great effort. You break the weight off the floor so fast, which is a bit unusual with sumo, I belive. I’m focusing on sofa-coaching for awhile. May study to get my ref license. In which case I might actually be qualified to critique lifts instead of just pretending that I’m an expert.
When’s your next meet?

The lifting, music choice, and this pic kick much ass. Nice to see you still wrecking shit. Hope the stomach bug doesn’t last too long.
Hope you’re feeling better today. Stopped to see what you’ve been up to lately, bb stuff…pffffttt.
