Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

That makes sense with benching. I was always hesitant to try for 1-rep maxes alone at home without some kind of safety. It did feel like I sometimes didn't push myself as hard as I could. I don't really do any weightlifting any more, even though I probably should.

Honestly I don't remember, it was quite a few years ago in a different house. I eventually upgraded to something more like this in the garage.
