My Strong app doesn't spy on me (to my knowledge), so I exported the data and made my OWN wrapped.

Over 1,045,000 pounds moved! (47400 kg) IN A MASK!

Records:
Bench: 112lbs x 2 (50kg)
Squat: 225lbs x 1 (102kg)
Deadlift: 264lbs x (120kg)

Totals:
Bench: 122,124lbs (55,395kg)
Squat: 137,245lbs (62,253kg)
Deadlift: 196,564lbs (89160kg)

Benched 100lbs for 6 reps tonight.

I don't know if the biggest victory is that the first two moved easy or that I'm learning to ask for help when I need it. I asked a regular to spot me. Even though he never touched the barbell, I could not have gotten that last one up without his encouragement.
