Man I just realized that you hit 1000 posts in your workout log. That makes it like a million years old in internet and fitness communities.
Congrats!

Notes:
-DJ Challenge #2 - It's supposed to be 10 to 1 without setting the bell down, it looked really easy on paper, after I was doing the set of 7 my back was getting super tight. After the set of 5 I was like F!! and set the bell down. Harder than it looked, which is DJ stuff par for the course.

With a 24 KG KB for the first run through I imagine it would be hard. That is on tap for our Friday workout so I am glad to know that I need to start with a 16 KG'er.

I was thinking it wasn't so bad set of 10 and 9, set of 7 my lower back was starting to get tight, by the time I got to the set of 5 my back was just a knot.

So I feel slightly less bad about myself now, I weighed the sandbag this morning and it's 110#'s not the 70 that I thought it was. Whew!
