I woke up more sore today in my biceps than yesterday. Putting on my shirt was a monumental task, as was anything that required me to move my arms above my head. I had a good breakfast, mowed the lawn, did some minor housework, and headed out to the gym. Despite my being sore, I was able to replicate all of the exercises I did with my trainer on Friday. I don't know if I did them all correctly - I might have cheated unknowingly on a couple, I don't know. It's very hard to remember when to keep my back straight, head up, etc. It was an intense

My abs are really hard to work out - I can't do more than a couple of reps without taking a break. Other than that, I was satisfied with my workout. I've adopted the method my trainer uses - 15 hardcore reps, 10 counted up, then the last 5 I count down. Makes it easier for some reason.
After my workout, a chill birthday BBQ and a graduation BBQ, where I ate one burger with some chips, a lot of carrots, and drank probably 6 glasses of water. Got home, ate some peanuts & chex mix, and kicked back with the puppy for a relaxing evening of resting those sore muscles! Tomorrow's going to be tough - going to try to make it up for a 6:30 workout! brutal.
how'd 6:30 go????
ReplyDelete6:30 is much earlier than I'd imagined. But I made it! and it was pretty invigorating. I haven't decided if early morning will be a regular thing yet. Makes work more difficult in the afternoon!
