Completely subliminal…swear.
“Everybody wants to be a bodybuilder, but don’t nobody wanna lift no heavy ass weight.”
“Down the road, in a gym far away
A young man was heard to say
“No matter what I do, my legs won’t grow!”
He tried leg extensions, leg curls, leg presses too
Trying to cheat, these sissy workouts he’d do!
From the corner of the gym where the big guys train
Through a cloud of chalk and the midst of pain
Where the big iron rides high, and threatens lives
Where the noise is made with big forty-fives
A deep voice bellowed as he wrapped his knees
A very big man with legs like trees
Laughing as he snatched another plate from the stack
Chalked his hands and monstrous back
Said, “Boy, stop lying and don’t say you’ve forgotten!
Trouble with you is you ain’t been SQUATTIN’!”
The Iron never lies to you. You can walk outside and listen to all kinds of talk, get told that you’re a god or a total bastard. The Iron will always kick you the real deal. The Iron is the great reference point, the all-knowing perspective giver. Always there like a beacon in the pitch black. I have found the Iron to be my greatest friend. It never freaks out on me, never runs. Friends may come and go. But two hundred pounds is always two hundred pounds.
Maddog 1 rep max = 185

Awesome PRs! Keep up the heavy lifting.
The yoga today was very interesting. This was the one day I took a pre-workout energy boost – I just needed it. I show up all pumped, then we do yoga to nice spa music. Meanwhile all I heard in my head was Death Metal. What timing I have…
Mar – You and me both, except, that’s what’s in my head every day. Still, that’s funny.
Documenting my PR for reference next time… 165#.
