Human photography essay

ONCE YOU HIT THE 9 PLATES AND MAX OUT THE BAR, THEN WHAT?

Hit the 8 plates and 35 the other day for atlas lift (ERIC KIM LIFT), and have a funny conundrum:

I am about to max out the bar.

The issue is that given the limited space on the other side of the bar, it seems I can only jump in weight from a single 35 plate to a 45 pound plate. So given I hit the 9 plates for my atlas lift (I am certain I can do)— then what? Find a new gym?

Perhaps towards an interesting life philosophy—

The worst thing is when you got nothing higher to challenge yourself towards.

Morale of the story:

We must always have a more monster of a challenge to aspire towards and BEYOND!
