You thought you were sore?

Today I went and did my daily workout, and stretching, and boy-oh-boy am I feeling it! Even getting out of the car and walking up the driveway is a challenge. 

Also, if you're going to do a dead-lift, please, by all means make sure that you have the form right!

I didn't use the dead-lift lift much when I was lifting a few years ago, but when I started CrossFit I was using the dead-lift--a lot. 

Nonetheless, I'm not so sure that I have perfected the art of its technique. You'd think that it wouldn't be too difficult of a concept for someone who has been lifting for 3 years consistently; well, for the most part consistent. 

Anyhow, today was a good day at the gym. And yes, I am more sore than I was yesterday. However, I do feel a bit like this Meme when I woke up this morning...

I have a feeling I will be reminding myself of this Meme tomorrow morning.
