I've taken up doing strength challenges on my birthday. Here is my 58th birthday strength challenge: A Bring Sally Up 325 lb trap bar deadlift challenge.

Just handing down what I was handed down...


Make a Difference.
Live. Love. Laugh.
Balance work, rest, play and pray (enjoy beauty and solitude)
Sleep soundly. Drink Water. Eat veggies and protein. Walk.
Wear your seat belt. Don’t smoke. Floss your teeth.
Put weights overhead. Pick weights off the floor. Carry weights.
Reread great books. Say thank you

New to me too. I just watched you lift my lifetime best for a single, 30 times back to back. And I'm 3 years younger.

I also love the idea of getting a trap bar for a birthday present. Might have to buy it for myself though....

Buying at least some of your own presents is a fantastic idea. :-)

As are birthday challenge workouts. I'm not sure I'll be able to fit in the walking marathon this year, but this might work...

Thanks for the congratulations.

I just found out about the Bring Sally Up challenge recently myself. But if you look in YouTube you'll see videos going back 10 years so it's been around.

Strong work. Congratulations.
Be strong. Be in shape. Be a man among men, regardless of your age or circumstances.
