August We Skipped July?
So, I technically lifted in July... like twice. But was not in a particularly social or organized head space. And thus I didn’t come say anything about it. I also hit a new PR....on body weight, so of course that helped headspace immensely.... not... Anyways, I lifted today. Rather disorganized, and light, but it was…

MAY Need to use this thread for JUNE lifting reports too! (Monthly-ish workout report thread)
Making the thread to rejuvenate the posting. No lifting today. But making thread while we have people saying hi. Did a hike/run that turned into more of a death march when I made the wrong turn to catch the less than 3 mile loop, and ended up on then 6+ mile route. Oops.

Practice safe sets
So, since MFP doesnt like you advertising’s your own interests.... if you find my same user name on Instagram.... you will see what happens if you try and ego lift or out lift a bad day attitude. Essentially this is my general reminder to fellow lifting ladies to remember the important things, and to remember failure IS an…

March you going to lift?
Nothing major. Squats, I had 55lbs on the bar from OHP the other day, and I decided it was better than nothing’s. So 5 x 5 @ 55. Also, I got talked into a yoga class today. I don’t know which part of yoga I’m worse at, the focus, or the flexibility.

May the Force be With You
Ok... that one seems to obvious, but it’s all I got. Today’s workout was fueled by tacos. Bench 5 x 45 5 x 65 5 x 85 3 x 105 5 x 5 @ 110 I did it!! Like just barely. My 5th rep wasn’t as clean as I like, and so I tried to end on a better note. But the 6th rep wasn’t there at all. So I BARELY got my 5x5, but I got it darn…

Decide to Lift in December
In the same vein as “if you build it, they will come,” I am trying for “if I build it, I will do.” Fighting a mother of a cold this week, but we are also slated for like 6-10 inches of snow today, so, it’s not like I’m going anywhere. So maybe I will do a spread out slo mo workout by the end of the day.

Getting Scary Strong (October Lifting Thread)
K, I worked late... brain clearly isn’t playing along. It’s the best I came up with... just be glad I tossed the ones that worse. Yesterday (not october, I know) 40 minutes on elliptical (GAWD, I need a treadmill) and then tried to figure out some accessory work with my limited set up. Today: 1.2 mile interval run. My…

April-ly Good Month to Lift
I, in theory know it is April, currently. This will not occur to me later today, I am sure. So, I’m going to leave this here for my own sake, if that works for all of you.

March to the Gym
K, y’all were making me check my calendar today. But, I think I’ve convinced myself it’s March. Makeup squat day. 5x 45 5x 60 3x 70 5x 85 3x 100 5ishx 110 (this is the real reason I skipped it Tuesday after pt crazy. I would have to look, but IF I’ve ever lifted this before, it was for like 1) Leg press 3x10 @ 160 Lunges…

Podcasts?
So, kind of random, but, do any of you strong, beautiful ladies know of any lifting related podcasts you would recommend? A lot of my current podcasts are running focused, and with the current dr ordered ban on running, listening to running podcasts just adds to the frustration. So, I was hoping to maybe find something to…
