Probably needs more context but I did my lower back lifting an old 40kg bronze monkey statue thing sitting on darwin’s origin of species contemplating the evolution of homo sapiens to clean it the other day. Been thinking… irony here is that fucking monkey if it were alive could’ve lifted it itself with like less than half the effort.
I thought I used the kneez but obviously not well enough.

Opa was definitely right :)

I’ve got to deadlift a 100kg woodchipper occasionally, warming up is pre advice. Hot water bottle for post advice.

And I thought the monkey was bad.
There is no way I could manage 100kg 💀
