Love your workout space! You get alot of neighbors joining in?  

What an awesome feeling and accomplishment! Did you have enough plates!!! 

Dm that make you lol I’m ok with it. I like it more than a gym environment tho. But I also like that it’s open to nature’s mercy. It’s really develop my mentality. Sometimes things go in your favor sometimes they don’t, but you can always find ways to get through. I use to swear when it rains, or too cold or too hot lol now I just accept it 

That's it, someone order a random drug screen for this guy! 😁 

Rpl I did picked a pair of plates. I have enough to hit my goal and over. And it is an awesome feeling. I don’t know if you’ve ever felt this before, but there’s moments in life where you really get to know yourself. There’s this split second that you are face with the choice of giving up or keep fighting for it. And in that moment there is no time to think, instinct takes over and you find out who you really are. I had that last year pulling 365, and another time in my life where I was going too fast on my motorcycle to try and pass a set of lights only to find out there’s another set of lights ahead of it and it was read and I had the break fast, so my bike of sliding sideways into the back of a car. I was face with the choice of accepting the situation and crashing for fight. Again instinct took over and it was like I took a back seat and watch myself so this. I kicked the ground and it straightened my bike and I maneuvered around the car in front of me as if I did it on purpose. So I’m proud, I’m a fighter 

Tud don’t make me happy! Lol but I’d fail that test tho. This was done with 200mg of caffeine Damn should have proof read my last comment lol 

Man, I don't have increased strength on caffeine. No fair.  

Supergainz - that is truly amazing and I know what you mean about choosing your fate or fighting. I think that makes a difference in a lot of things we do and you can carry that into your weightlifting, life choices or work. Thanks for sharing that. I had a very aggressive form of breast cancer and I kicked too and went all in. I also love the PR's at the gym because it is another testament of my own strength and I think that is something you either have in you or you don't. It sounds like you are in 100%! Great work! 

don't be stepping on a rusty nail 

nice job quads are looking huge 

Lol blondie it wouldn’t be the 1st. What’s so bad about stepping on rusted nails? I’ve done it a handful of time in my life 

I really think your space is cool. Do you have a cover for when it rains or push through the rain? I think it’s cool bro! 

Supergainz1— I can only laugh. You have obviously never seen anyone die of tetanus. I have. 

Dm I got the rack n bench under a roof. But deadlifting puts dents on the ground so I need to do that away from the benching area lol 

Kenna you speak the truth. I haven’t 

Congrats! Looking TST! 

These fancy “home gyms” are getting ridiculous 😁. Nice pull! My son started doing his deadlifts barefoot last year. I’m old…I use a trap bar 

Lol nothing fancy here Chris, it’s dirty n gritty. Barefoot for deads and squats is the way to go. So much stability. Best of luck to your son! Deadlifting demands respect tho. It can hurt you and it can help you. It took many trial n errors for me to figure out how to make deadlifting help me. And now I feel so sturdy lifting heavy things in my daily life and it’s become my favorite movement 

Thanks everyone! And funny enough, I didn’t not step on any rusted nails but I did got a splinter from a thorn! 😂 

Barefoot! If I did that I'd probably drop the weight on my foot! I was doing plate squats with an overhead press the other day and bonked myself in the forehead with the weight. You are a beast!!💪💪
