I like these new plates

The difference between dumbbell curls with 20 lbs in each hand and curls with 30lbs in each hand is amazing.

I love being able to see my veins standing up on my arms. Wow, that’s kinda gross, but what the hell. Gotta take the cheap thrills where I can.

What’s surprising is how much my legs hurt after carrying the plates home. Between the trek down Market Street and the distance from the J Church stop and home I carried that extra 40 pounds about a mile and a half.
