First Time Getting Ice Cream At Little Dippers This Summer

We went to Little Dippers in Mount Joy for our first time this summer to get ice cream. They have it from the Penn State Creamery and that is hands down some of the best ice cream that Iโ€™ve ever had.

Nice 4th Of July In The Garage Gym

I had a nice fourth of July in the garage gym today. Everything went well, and you canโ€™t really ask for better weather in the middle of summer.

Sweaty Hands

Itโ€™s not really that hot this morning, but my hands were very sweaty. Thatโ€™s one of those things that hurts me more than anything. My lifts went surprisingly well considering that.

It's Hotter Than Hell Today But I still Did Okay In The Garage

It is hotter than Hell Today. It was about 90 โ„‰ when I went out into the garage, but I still did okay with my stuff. I am thankful that we have and use an air conditioner for our garage gym.

Strength Went Okay Today, The WOD Was Brutal Outside In The Heat

We finally installed the air conditioner in the garage window. That will help with the heat and humidity. It wasnโ€™t too bad today but I did have it on to dry the air up a bit. Later I came up with the dumb idea to do a brutal WOD outside in the heat.

Strength With AC But It Was In The Mid 90s Outside

Installing the air conditioner in the gymโ€™s window is paying off now. I did my lifting with it on while it was in the middle 90s outside. Without the air I would have most likely failed due to heat.

Hot Day For A Double WODS Day

It was a hot day in with the high shooting up into the middle nineties after a low in the low sixties. I still doubled up on WODs.

Strength with AC Finally Then A WOD Outside Later

Failed A WOD Today

Heat And Humidity Equals Disappointing Double Failure In My Strength Today

The heat and humidity are still screwing with me lifting. Today it was a cause of a double failure on my lifts. Disappointing but not unexpected since my body doesnโ€™t deal with heat very well.

Pretty Good Lightning From A Storm That Was Just Missing Us

The past couple of days have been hot and very humid with showers and thunderstorms popping up every day. A nice cluster popped up this evening but missed us by a mile or two. We did get a nice view of cloud to ground lightning under the storm.

Failed Squat From The Humidity Today

Today didnโ€™t go so well in the garage. It was very humid and I failed my squat from the humidity. I was sweating so much it almost seemed as if the bar was slipping on my shoulders.

Hot And Humid Today Then Severe Storms

We had a great time attending a geocaching event. After the event Lynn twisted our arms into doing some more caching. We got caught in a severe storm and lots of roads were blocked by downed trees.
