Good I guess? I feel like now I actually am the thing that lots of people said I would eventually be, in some sense. I'm trying to work on being grateful more than being prideful, but I have done some kickass things and deserve to feel good about having done them. I'll certainly report on the venture.

I think I'm going to like it too. I especially like the sumo deadlift, can't really say why. Any advice on not hitting yourself in the ass/taint when doing a swing that goes between the legs? I feel like it's just a matter of controlling the rate of descent of the weight, so it doesn't flip up and hit me in the nethers, but the guy doing the demo I watched seemed not to mind getting repeatedly violated by a 40lb bell.
