So today was back day. Heavy dead-lifts, Pendlay Rows, Weighted Pull-Ups (which have gotten a lot easier since I have been losing weight) and some pull-overs.

But what impressed me to write about was I watched a guy come in I haven't seen before. Found out he usually comes in and is gone before I get there.

But the guy has to be around 65+ years old and was doing Incline Benches. When I seen him load up the bar with 225...I started taking notice in case he needed someone to help him as we were the only ones in the gym. He did 3 reps with it...and I figured he was done.

Apparently he was warming up. He then loaded another "quarter"...and did 5-6 sets of 6+ reps at 275 lbs. Honestly...it just blew my mind.

Mad props to him. He was in shape, but nothing that looked out of the ordinary to make you think he was pushing that type of weight!
