All with jumping pullups, some with jumping dips resisting the descent some with tricep dips. Very, very good time for all of them, collectively this was the best I’ve seen them do. Of particular note is the fact that Mikayla didn’t shave her legs and she still worked out with us. This is apparently of monumental import. Considering we don’t all rub our legs together like crickets I personally did not find this significant and hope she doen’t find it necessary to skip workouts for fear of abrading the rest of us.

Amazing Squats today for most, Rob did hang power cleans. The wedding mob did Olivia and really tore it up. Getting them to go up in weight is like pulling teeth, alligator teeth. From a pissed off and hungry alligator no less. I'm pretty sure they are all afraid they will look like Hulk Hogan in a week if they lift anything heavy enough to cause loud noises and a great gnashing of teeth. They have gotten much faster, I have to convince them that they have also gotten stronger. The smiling Michelle on top of the bar is celebrating her first (actually, this was posed so it was her second) all by herself pullups. with the hands facing grip she got right up and was beaming. She was also disappointed with her weight choice for her squats...she said it was too light. Jim was too light too, he'll go up quite bit next time. I felt pretty good about my 175 for the 3 x 5 set until Steve used 175 for his speed reps.
