squats: form only, weight irrelevant.
bench: add 5 to make 80
deadlift: 150 would make me feel like a monster.
rows: 75?
ohp: 60+ again.

Want to start losing pounds, so I think this means stop shoving food in my face. Ugh, what a goal....
Adding weight to bar every session in the gym.
Keep watching my form so I don't injure myself.0 -
OHP hit 90 lbs
DL's get 2 @ 225
Bench 2 @ 110
Squat 3 @ 165
These are the programmed weights for my 1 week. I think I can hit those reps.
I am also going to be consistently below 140 lbs for weight. It is totally do able even factoring in my one mental health day (that will include a Chinese buffet).
Start running, I don't have any goals for this other than get out there at this point.0 -
Train smart, stay injury free. Easier said than done.0

Schedule in a routine of weight training, yoga, cycling and hiking - and stick to it for the entire month.0

I really would like to be able just to commit to 3 days a week weight lifting at the gym. Want to work on my form first after being off of SL for a little and then up the weights for March.

I'm leaving town end of February and I really want to not fall off the wagon when I get home. All other times I leave town or go on vacation, it takes me weeks to get my eating back and to start weight lifting again.
Also I want to do more yoga.0 -
update: i'm adding c25k. totally no idea why, but the fit just suddenly came upon me.
so: do it through all of this month, exactly whatever they say, and then see what happens.0 -

Update and bump since the month is nearing the end, even though we get that extra day.
I did get to 190 for my working set because I switched to the peak cycle, which required me to drop the weights so I can work my way up. Did do the research since I'm attempting a peak cycle and getting ready for the meet. Still need to look up a little on belts and uniform though.
No blog posts so far and really need to pick a time and just write several. I have topics, just need to get them done. No reading either and I've written several days a week but not all 5 with 250 or more on YA but some work on other things a couple days a week.
Did have a few days of no writing, like yesterday when I ended up with the 10 hour shift followed by gym and next day going in at 8 am. Today I've gotten some non-YA stuff worked on and might also try to get a little in chapter 18 of NW done before going to bed.
No real progress in looking at other options. Need to do my taxes and figure out when I can go visit my sister in LA.
Did try yoga a couple of times a week. Have a little time left but need to figure out the pay scale cause it might not be feasible right now to do yoga on a regular basis.
Some progress and some falling behind. Not too bad of a month thus far. Only bad news is my next day off from work is March 1, so will need to cram anything else in while also working.0 -

Yeah, didn't manage that. Strained my calf going for a run about 5 days later.
I actually made that post in reference to my back however, which has stayed good and I did back off a couple of times when it didn't feel quite right. 0
