BWT 305#
Almost ready for a new belt: my 42" belt is just a little snug on the last hole. 1,500 Cal again today for my diet. If I stick to the plan I should need a new belt next week. I am getting close to 300#, which would be a major milestone. I haven't been under 300# since 1983.
My next trip to the gym will be this evening. My knees are a bit achy from the deep stretching involved in those front squats, so I am planning on doing rack pulls instead of full range deadlifts. I really should start doing more stretching at home, since I need to develop more flexibility in my knees, hips and wrists to properly do front squats.

That's fabulous, Robert!
Wow, you'll be at 300 lbs in no time flat, allow me to be the first to congratulate you :)
Ah, yes, good old streching. It does help so much, doesn't it? I am sure my hip would'nt have felt displaced if I had streched well before my last workout.
Congrats again!! Have a great weekend,
Becky
Thanks Becky. I am seriously considering giving Yoga a try. If I could be half as flexible as that old lady on PBS (Priscilla Patrick) I would be fine.
lol, that lady is bendy!
Yoga's a great idea, though. It's surprising how many muscles are worked out while streching. It's also very meditative and relaxing. Let me know if you decide to do a class and how it goes :)
