Hi everyone!
I'm just curious here how much other women are lifting, and how you're all finding it!
I maxxed out our ship's (rather pathetic) 75lb barbell set today.... pretty limited anyways without a squat rack, as that is pretty much the max I can clean and press right now in order to do the squats! Must say I felt slightly badass though, putting the last weights off the rack on.... hahahaah....
Also had to modify because we don't have a bench, so I've been doing pushups on a barbell with increasing angles (feet up on a box, etc).
Finding the barbell rows the most challenging to do without feeling it in my lower back. Definitely making progress there, too though!
Amazed at how much more solid I feel, even after only three weeks!
Great program and I actually look forward to workouts!
