My current collection of weights is a combo of the DP plastic weights and some old hand-me-down iron plates.   Guess what??   I have maxed out my squat and deadlifts using the every single plate I own!  

Now I am squatting 5 sets of 12 reps with 185 pounds!   I now I could lift way more, but the lawnmower is too bulky to squat!

So Santa please bring me about another 100 lbs of iron. I need to lift more, more, more!!

Ho! Ho! Ho!

Wow!  What a difference a year makes when you are committed to your training program.   Every year for Thanksgiving we have to rearrange the furniture in the living room to make space for the feast.  And, whoa! I was able to lift and move things like never before!  I was moving recliners and sofa sleepers with ease!  I think I impressed my wife…LOL. 

It’s good to be strong!!!
