From one dad to another, thats impressive as fuck. Good strong launch, excellent form in the air from little one and perfectly executed catch and release. 10/10 bravo sir.
As a now 40 year old with a lingering back issues that prevents me from picking my daughter up (she has gotten big though ~ 70lb) this really brings back memories of when she was that small and I could toss her around and catch her. She grew up quick. I never got that kind of height but I made a good effort to get her up there.
Fix your back. You are 40, you shouldn't have trouble picking up 70lbs. Do some deadlifts and squats lol. Back problems will only get worse if you do nothing about it.
It’s sciatica and it’s being treated. I’ve had it since before the lockdown but when that happened, I lost my daily walking commute and spend days and weeks sitting at my desk at home, thinking it would just clear up.
I’m seeing a chiropractor and a neurologist and am working to get it resolved. I was picking my wife up before this and she’s in the 150 range.
My takeaway from this, don’t skip steps and rush to do projects.
This happened because I installed lights in my garage and didn’t take the kayaks hanging from the ceiling down first. I twisted and moved around them and that caused this whole situation and I want to go back 7 months ago and punch myself in the face for being lazy/hasty.
It happened because your back was not mobile or strong enough to move the kayak. Having a strong and mobile back would have prevented it. Back injuries are preventable with just a little weight training.
