Hi Everybody.
Stingo: Thanks for saying I look like I can dance. I've never been in a class that did Bulgarian squats, so I guess I'll find out what I think of them with NROL4W. I have tried them and didn't have any problem getting down and up. Also I had done renegade rows in a class (just didn't know they had a formal name) and really liked them.
RE Gawker: I guess I'm just getting old. My only thought was I know he should know better than to be so rude.

I can understand this.
However, I've never done a formal weight-lifting regimen. I started this program to find out how strong I am (mentally and physically), but I have no goal of how physically strong I should/need/want to become. So in my mind is something along the lines of "If I can do
X number of an exercise with
Y weight, then I know my body is working well." And I don't know how to figure out
X and
Y. Then if I could figure out
X and
Y, I don't know why I should go >
Y. I hope that made some semblance of sense.
