I squatted 185 lb today. First time ever. For over 10 years, I have had debilitating lower back problems. But with consistent and careful training, I am now at my peak strength!

Deadlifted 245 today. For years, I have been limited by horrible lower back problems. But with consistent training and perseverance, I am now the strongest I have ever been.

My thoughts on Magnus Carlsen, FIDE, and Jeansgate. Of course, on the one hand, nobody should be above the rules, and warnings were given. Other players changed. Also, clearly there was a lot bubbling under the surface for a while. On the other hand, the players and the chess moves are the main attraction. I imagine less than 1% of chess fans care about what players are wearing, as long as they are neat and presentable. Athletes get massive fines all the time. Suspending is an absolute final step for excessive violations and seems unwarranted in this case.
