    As impressive as your lifts are, the swimming for 1 hr is doubly so.

    Nice couple of workouts there. That's some great endurance to swim for over an hour straight.

    Swimming is awesome. Nothing is better in the summertime. Lynn and I hit the pool on Saturday and it was great. So much better than the indoor pool.

    You know you did enough reps when you do so many that you lose count. Good work.

    Those front squats are heavy duty. Your back squat must really be getting up there, then. When's the last time you maxed on squat?
