    I have managed to do three lifting sessions this week! One more day and I finished week one of an 8 wk program my friend tailored for me.

    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! 😊

    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…….

    Well... I completed day 4 of week 1! First week (of 8) in the books!
    e14b1rm6f3na.gif

    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! 😂😂

    You really are a kick *kitten* Amazon.

    I am in such awe.

    You're killing it like always. Looks like you are re-energized and going hard after it.

    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.

    The depth on your squats was amazing! Just keep giving it your best effort, you can do it!

    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.
