Need to write more.

Hello Readers!

This is me trying to get into a writing groove.  If you read this blog at all, first of all THANK YOU.  Secondly, you'll know that I am not a consistent writer to say the LEAST.  I hope to change that and begin to write a little every day.  Little and often over the long haul, as Dan John would say. 

To start, let's talk about what I'm working on.  I'm about to be 40 years old, on June 27th, and I'm working on commemorating this birthday by picking up 400 pounds on a Hex Bar.  For those who don't know, a Hex Bar is a hexagonal shaped barbell, that weighs 45 lbs.  I'd like to add 355 extra pounds to it and pick it up. 

To train for this, for the last two months, I've been doing the following 4 days a week....

Warm Up O/S resets.  More on these in a subsequent post

Deadlift 185x5(warm up)
225x5
275x3
295x3
325x2


On my last big day, I picked up 345 for two.  But that was some time ago, and I believe I'll experience a bit of a setback because I've taken some time away.  ANYHOO....check in here for updates, and more posts!  Lots to come!
