I was trying to train all morning and never did. People stopped in, the phone rang etcetera. Then I finally got going. Handed off to M4 who was doing Reverse Band Benchpress and got a nice 25 pound PR (545?). Talked Mark Bergman into trying it out and he put up 460. In the afternoon a gentleman in his late fifties came wearing a "House of Health" tank top. Obviously I don't sell those currently so I deduced he had been around awhile. Sure enough, he was the first place. We named names, remember this guy, remember that guy, etcetera. I mentioned that he had just missed Mark B, another OG (like that?!?). I showed him some old photos we had on the wall of original HOH members. He easily named them off except for a small black and white picture. he asked me to take it down so he could get a closer look and I obliged him. He studied it intently for several minutes, asking me, 'you don't know who this is?', 'don't recognize him, huh?' Nope, no I do not I replied. So he takes the picture, holds it next to his face with the same toothy grin of the young lad in the photo and laughs, 'it's me!' Holy cow! How about that?!? I didn't know what to say. Still don't. he said I saw your ad in the local paper and had to come by to see what was going on. He said he really liked the place and what we had done with it and that he would be back! Soon, I hope. What a great day!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks Dave!
And I trained too but I couldn't top that. I did some jumping; from kneeling to a small box to a medium sized box and did several reps.
Squat 6x4 reps w/ 265
Good mornings w/ cambered squat bar 3x5/ 135, 225, 275
