Got a light massage on Wednesday. It’s helping my pain issues. Will keep it up for a bit. Also missed yesterday due to a required training session by my new work client. So today became SSB day because I like it and feel it’s been the biggest help to my squat progress.
.
No belt. Not about going heavy, but reps, volume, and technique. Truly the biggest thing SSB has given me is the torso tightness. Huge help.
.
Slingshot is fun. Still not sure how much it carries over, but at least it helps confidence in handling heavier weights.
.
No DB bench, since the slingshot irritated my arms and pec a bit. But I did lat raises.
.
Good day.

Me, probably 1984.
.
For a few pre-teen summers I went to a “Discovery Camp”. You chose 5 classes and had sessions every day. I don’t remember all I took, but I do remember taking tennis, typing (has paid off), and photography.
.
It was black-and-white photography. We learned how to take and compose pictures, and got to develop the photos as well. The film development and darkroom stuff was a lot of fun.
.
This picture is from the camp’s 1985 catalog, hence my guess it was taken in 1984.
.
I’ve bulked up since then. 😄

The cognitive dissonance is strong in this one….
That Ivory Tower has a strong reality distortion field.
Han, we need you to penetrate the Imperial Senate and deactivate the distortion field generator! 😉
(My apologies. It’s a goofy Friday morning and I could not help myself!)(May the Farce be with you!)
And they were upset because one of Hillary’s toadies was openly thwarting democracy right in front of their eyes. Boxer evidently believes Bernie Sanders supporters aren’t allowed to get upset at Hillary’s open cheating…
Of course… because they benefit not from a Sanders win.
