Weekly Feature: What I did

My sincerest apologies for falling down, here. I've had some minor but distracting health problems of late. As a side note, if anyone is interested in co-modding, please contact me.

And now: what did you do?

1.5x bodyweight deadlift! Makes me feel better about myself when I still can't do the kipping pullup without pissing off my rotator cuffs.

And I held a free-standing handstand for approximately half a second. Terrifying.

Thank you! Now let's see if I can get a 2xBW DL in a few more months - that day we were doing deadlifts a dude in the gym got a 550 deadlift. INSANE.

I know I've already squee-ed about the deadlift, but ROCK ON with the handstand!

Thank you! :D (It was sheer terror with strategic f-bomb strikes thrown in.)
