I promised the newsletter readers we'd compile our IOL guide to lifting videos now that we have the YouTube embed code.
Here's a starter vid -- might want to lower or mute your speaker volume.
Share your favorites by putting the YouTube video number (only) in the middle, between [youtube][/youtube]. You can only embed one video per post.

The 573 lb C&J was pretty awesome. That and the kid doing one-arm benches

Crow, those were two awesome videos.
How about a section on instructional videos as well?

You hear the metal, feel its coolness, leverage its gravity and fight the fight.
You finish with a smile somewhere on your face and joy someplace in your heart and an ache of fulfillment all over."
