July 30th

Thought today would be an "easier" day. 6 ladders...no problem...piece of cake...right?? WRONG!!! For the 1st couple of ladders I pressed double 26lb which was awesome and then Jim gave me the new blue kettlebell and told me to press that. THAT THING KICKED MY BUTT! Finally found my "sweet spot" on my right side but still am trying to find it on my left. Pushed as hard as I could but couldn't get it up a couple of times. That's ok. I will not let it beat me. Watch out 35.....you're next!!!!
