The Bar (Challenge Day 6)

I never stop being surprised when I get a new PR. Every inch forward seems to be met by miles and miles of hard gained ground through epic failures. No matter how many times I fall on my ass after a missed clean, or how much I bend the bar on a deadlift but the iron stays glued to the ground. I know in the back of my mind that the bar will let me pick it up when I am absolutely ready to, and not a minute sooner.

"The Iron will always kick you the real deal. The Iron is the great reference point, the all-knowing perspective giver. Always there like a beacon in the pitch black. I have found the Iron to be my greatest friend." ~Henry Rollins
