A new record26
Yesterday I tried lifting 250 pounds with each arm for the first time, and my second and third attempts were successful. Unfortunately, I did not use the video. Today was my second day with this weight.When I made my first attempt, the camera started clicking and then it ran out of film. But both the dumbbells did move considerably.
When I was making my second attempt, Alo came and I invited her to sit down and watch.
My third attempt was absolutely the best, specially the final push.
