What I got was good sleep. <\/p>\n<p>Goldberg and I had an interesting little conversation last night. I can say, without tooting my own horn, really, that I put up some good numbers. I am strong. I am not really fast or, anything else for that matter, but I am say I am pretty strong. Still though, strength is relative. <\/p>\n<p>I can say with a fairly high level of certainty that someone who is dead lifting for a 1RM @ 100# is working JUST as hard (and in some cases, maybe even HARDER) that someone going for a 1RM @ 400#. <\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t sell yourself short and think that just because you are lifting less weight than someone else that you aren&#8217;t as strong or working as hard.
