Fuck. Yeah.
I've been abusing that emphasis by putting a period after every word, haven't I? More importantly, I squatted 275. I only got it 3 times, but I went way down and...I squatted 275. I weigh like 145 (still, grr). So, that's a lot for me. And I am pleased. I will squat 3 plates and it won't be a terribly long time before I do. Then I'm going to crack walnuts with my ass cheeks.
I still deny that I'm an attorney - I really don't practice law per se, just admin hearings, but I have no problem bragging about my paltry gym experience.
Bench was 185 at 8 times again, but I may have had another tucked away in there. Slowly but slowly I'm coming up. According to some online calc I can already bench 225. I'd rather hit 10 on 185 before I do, for no reason whatsoever. I also dipped with 55lbs on for 20 reps for the first time.
YOU KNOW THE HARDEST PART OF LIFTING WEIGHTS? MATH!
