Here's a quick snapshot of today's work...
Pin press, Incline press, face pulls, tricep pullovers, skull crushers, reverse (banded) curls behind the head presses.
Awesome as always, S.
Thank you! 😊1 -
Quick GIFs. Not my best efforts, but I’d already biked, run and done a hot power class when I did these. 1,000 is a BFD for me and I needed to mark the milestone.

Thank you! That looks like fun and that guy’s voice is mesmerizing. He could totally run a yoga nidra meditation. My son-in-law, the one with the doctorate in random number mathematics or some such craziness, was known for his break dancing skills. Hmmm…….2 -

If I tried this.. I might end up with a nosebleed! Hahaha that's awesome!1 -
Well... I completed day 4 of week 1! First week (of 8) in the books!
This has been challenging for me, as there are movements in this program I haven't done before, terms I'm unfamiliar with, and calls for equipment I don't necessarily have - so I've needed to sub in some resistance band work. Not being 100% confident in what I'm doing causes me a lot of anxiety, but I DID IT, and that is huge.
I now pre-try the exercises I don't know, the day before to make sure I know what I'm doing and how, and try to have it all planned for go time.
I'm actually kind of proud! And sore. Very very sore! 😂😂8 -

Thank you, I am trying!
I confess... The idea of trying to fit in 4 workouts a week for 8 weeks seems almost impossible... But I'll take it one day at a time!
I'm a bit down.. Last nights squats kicked my butt... And they were only 140lb. I feel like I lost so much and I still have a hip thing going on.2 -

Week 2 done!
I am super proud that I am doing this. I was afraid I would bail, but so far, two weeks done. It's feeling doable!
Also, most I've done in a set, assisted.
