Day Two of Oly Lifting Cert

Another great day learning how to coach the lifts.
The coaches really focused on how to teach the lifts.
There were a couple of other guys from my demographic at the cert and it was cool to hang out with the "geezers" and learn how to teach other "geezers". Coach Burgener appreciated our squats to a box.

@Cliff, yes the old trick for teaching new tricks to old dogs is, wait, what was I talking about?

10 burpees (have I ever mentioned I vehemently dislike burpees?)

walked 2 miles on the treadmill at inclines of up to 10%.
wore sturdier shoes today and that seemed to help with the instability in my prosthetic hip

did 2x10 deadlifts at the amazing weight of, wait for it, drumroll please, 45#...
