I'll get there. I have a cross fit gym that my brother owns next door to work. My big problem is that I don't have the strength and recovery I had in my early thirties. I'll eventually get back to lifting, but my personal trainer days taught me that bodyweight workouts, done with the intensity mentioned in an earlier post, can be very effective. Especially getting back into it. I deadlifted 300 a couple months ago, would like to get back to 440 or 450. It just sucks because I'm just coming out of a ten month depression in which I could make myself go climbing but i couldn't muster the energy to lift. Going to have a run tonight, first one in ages, hope it goes well.
