    I accidentally broke the big casserole dish making dinner because it was a lot lighter than I expected when i picked it up. I yanked it like I would have two months ago and it flew up and hit the cabinet and broke in half. ... "Guess what? We're having single-pan cook up instead of casserole, honey!".
    oooops...

    Lol. I totally get that. It's like, where did that come from? I'm superhuman!

    I notice the power in my tennis game. I deliver more bullets. I rebound faster. I jump higher.

    I no longer have back pain. This is so amazing to me, as I suffered with terrible pain, rx meds, muscle spasms, etc. for years.

    Same here! Lifting greatly reduced my neck and upper back pain.

    Me three!
    It's been over 3 years since I've thrown my back out. All the core work from deads, squats and OHP have paid off. Plus, oddly enough, haven't had a single gout episode since I re-committed to lifting again. Prior to lifting it was happening about 2 times a year.
