_ms Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 I don't normally like to toot my own horn, but I feel like I hit a pretty big milestone. I've come to the woot room because my friends would just make fun of me and my wife wouldn't care.Today I deadlifted twice my body weight for the first time ever. Coincidentally, it's also the first time I've picked up anything over 300 lbs.I am patting myself on the back right now.Side Story: As I was adding weight from 285 to 295, I noticed that someone had taken one of the weight collars off of my barbell while I stepped away for a drink of water (I did the lift at 285 with one collar). So now I know that that can happen. My gym sucks. Link to comment
