Oh Dear Lord it feels good to sit down...this is honestly the first time today I've sat down for more than 2 minutes. It was just back to back today and the only relief I got was when I went to the bathroom. By 3pm I was ready to fake a major colon blowout just to have some down time. Needless to say, my legs are pretty tired right now.
The weekend was good, but went by too fast. I remember waking up on Saturday morning thinking "holy crap, I only have 4 weeks!"...it was a moment of temporary anxiety. I did 45 minutes of moderate cardio that morning and then took yesterday off. I literally sat almost all afternoon in the recliner...my body needed it. Since I was completely inactive yesterday I truly struggled to even get in all my calories. I was hardly hungry...but I was forcing down chicken and asparagus like it was my job...
I was able to get in bed a little earlier last night so today wasn't such a punch in the face. I honestly felt a little off-focus going into my workout. I feel like these last few weeks are what my husband calls "the grind"...one day to the next...eat, sleep, train, repeat...and repeat...and repeat. While I love it, I'd be lying if I said it wasn't hard. Energy is low, and change is slow...tough combination...and the fact that that just rhymed is a little irritating, not gonna lie. Shocking that I never liked Mother Goose...its just a GOOSE...even if she had great rhymes, they crap everywhere...
SO...chest, shoulders, and sprints today. Had a great chest day and kept my volume higher than last week. Shoulders were tough, and still struggling with a hard flex on my left side, but overall solid workout.
Workout:
Incline DB press 4 x 10
Flat DB bench press 4 x 10
Cable flys 4 x 12
Wide push-ups to failure 2x
Standing BB shoulder press 4 x 12, drop set on #4
Bent arm lateral raise 4 x 15
Front DB raise with rotation 3 x 15
Treadmill sprints 25 min
My hamstrings are really taking a hit right now from all these sprints. They are tight, need to be stretched, and need someone to beat on them like a drum and have me crying for my mama. I'm thinking a massage this weekend...
Ok, I've got to make some dinner for the hubs...yes, I make 2 dinners. If he had to eat what I ate he certainly wouldn't be 215 pounds, and divorce papers might be on the counter in the morning. Its ok, I get it.
I am beyond tired right now...more to come tomorrow folks...GO HARD!
