A week since my last entry huh? Okay, I suck at blogging!!!
Where to begin? First, dad is doing better day by day, but I'm still in the office alone so it has been hectic and I've been finding creative ways to get my workouts in. Today is day 30!!! Sunday was the end of Phase 1, so I am 1/3 of the way there! Last night was Chest/Shoulders/Triceps and it nearly killed me... seriously, I thought I would die. WAY too many pushups for my bum wrist, but I pushed through it. By far the toughest workout for me, and it doesn't help that it came on the heels of a recovery week.
Eating... well, that's not been so great, but I'm doing the best I can. I have to get to the grocery store but finding the time hasn't been easy.
I'm taking day 30 pictures tomorrow morning... in preparation, I downloaded Day 1 pics. My sister had them, I had not wanted to see them and OUCH... many, how did I get so out of shape? It was mortifying to see them, so I'm hoping to see some changes in the day 30 pics... and really looking forward to kicking some ass over the next 30 days. Talk about inspiration... gag. Here is a pic I snapped the other night... starting to see a little muscle!!
I'm getting a lot of compliments these days, and I'm not so sure it's due to results. My confidence level is higher... My posture is improving, I am feeling stronger... I think that shows more than anything. Confidence is a funny thing. My first 30 days was a test of my physical strength, emotional strength and willpower. I think I get a 95 out of 100 for bringing it, considering everything that was thrown at me... I'm proud of what I accomplished, and I'm looking forward to the next 30 days.
Oh yeah... Recovery week sucks. Not much recovering, but enough that by the time the following week starts, you feel like you are starting fresh. I'm sure that is all part of the master plan, but the first day back on resistance exercises SUCKS!!!!!!!
Plyo tonight... can't believe I'm excited about Plyo. THAT is how much I disliked last night's workout!!!!! Last night's workout included "Plyo pushups"? REALLY? I'm just getting the hang of doing real pushups and you want me to go airborne and clap? Not if I plan to still have a face...
