Today I reached 100 lbs in both exercises!
Note: I am still also doing the purely isometric exercises on the Biodensity machine about every other week. I think the barbell training is helping with that.

![]() I've been able to continue going to the gym twice a week (mostly) and focusing just on squats and dead lifts. Both the squat bar (on the rack, which is not shown here) and the hex bar, which I use for deadlifts (see photo), weigh 45 lbs. So I started with free weights to work up to 45 lbs. Then I gradually added weight to the bars, 5 lbs. at a time. A big milestone for me was 95 lbs. because then I could load just 2 25-lb. weights on the bar. Today I reached 100 lbs in both exercises!
