Making progress

[longarms]

When I found elitefitness in July, I hadn't lifted regularly for 6 months, & had done any powerlifting in years. my stats in July were:
BW: 200 (during the war in April, I was prolly 190ish)
SQ: 275
Bench: 225
DL: 315

my current stats are:
BW: 227
SQ: 365
Bench: 265
DL: 405

These aren't earth shattering lifts by any means, but at 41, I'm still getting bigger & stronger than ever. On wednesday, I'll set a new lifetime bench PR, & I'm a few weeks away from a big squat PR as well.
My point is;
I could lay around here, feeling sorry for myself, wishing I was home, or I can bust my butt, get big & strong, & wish I was home. So when I DO get home, I can fend off the evil hordes of young men snooping around my beautiful daughters. OK, a .45 works too, but a commanding physical presence has it's benefits as well.

Train hard, Train smart, Train safely.
HOOAH!

Thanks, guys.
The best part is, I feel like I'm just now hitting my stride, feeling the groove, you know what I mean. My squat form needs work, & I've only had 4 workouts with the wide stance, but It's all coming together at last!
My body weight is the one that surprises me the most! I'm not lean, but you've seen my pics, not too bad, I guess. At this pace, I'll be at 240 by the end of the year. I'll really have to work so I don't get too weak for my weight!!

Each PR is an earth shattering number in and of itself to the individual.

It's not the numbers that count, it is the fact that your doing it.

Keep it up, nice work.
