Freewheel’s Ramble

Ok, so it went pretty well tonight. I felt worn out after work and had been hitting the Dayquil bottle during the day, but I knew I had to get some form of deads in. while starting to warm up I actualy felt like I was getting my second wind so I thought "what the hell, might as well hit it hard." I increased the weight on all of my sets by 5 to 20 pounds. Was going good until I got to the last heavy single of 460. This would have been a new PR but when I tried to pull it, it just as well have been welded to the floor. I did get it moving but at less than knee high it stalled. I took a good long break and hit it again with the same results. Oh well, all in all it was still a good workout.

I did get a kick out of watching a couple of goofy teenage kids trying to bench. They had stacked several 10 pound plates on the bar and were not using collars. When the one with the string bean build tried to lift it, he tillted to one side and dumped off one plate. Of course then the bar tipped the other way and dumped a plate from the other side. He then over corrected and rocked back the other way again. This continued until he had unloaded the bar. He was then able to get the bar racked and they made a quick exit…
