    Thursday done!

    Did nothing! Passed out candy for trick or treat and didn't make skating or the gym. Have to make up for it today!

    Ate way too much candy, have way too much left over due to the crappy weather.

    Question. I am not new to lifting, but trying to incorporate more free weights, specifically dumbbells. My form is terrible and the weights are wobbling all over, think bench press as a good example. Would it be better to reduce the weight and work on form and just wait for the other stabilizing muscles to catch up?

    Yes. Nailing down the form is more important because what you're trying to do is incorporate all the ancillary muscles to be involved with the process. Learn how to feel the muscle contract, rather than just trying to leverage the weight up.

    Sorry to interrupt this thread, but @ninerbuff, you had a thread awhile ago about not needing motivation/support from others. I can’t find it! If you remember what’s it titled, could you bump it for me? Pretty please?

    Cardio : Indoor rowing 60 minutes

    Strength: Romanian deadlifts, deadlift high pulls, squat cleans, lunge press ups.

    Assessment: I better read back, not sure what this means!
