Something strange happened while running last night
I have been working myself though c25k actually surpassing it a couple of weeks back, and have been adding a few minutes to my runs since. I'm up to about 40 minutes straight at 5.5mph (yes, on the dreadmill), but I haven't ever felt what I did last night. It wasn't the "runner's high" because I've experienced that before.…

I've been able to hit 225 on both my Squat/DL for a single rep without dying feeling like I had a good amount of weight to spare, so I'm guessing my 1RM for those is somewhere around 240 -…

Introducing myself as... myself!
Hello! I'm not one to hang around places for very long without properly introducing myself. My parents call it manners, I call it narcissism... tomato, to-mah-to, etc. :) My name is Rob, but I have at least two dozen nicknames, so as long as you don't refer to me as either "Bob," or "Robbie," we'll be on speaking terms.…
