Non Scale Victories This Week
During last night's LIIFT 4 Shoulders workout, I saw an improvement over last weeks shoulder presses. I was unable to do the 2nd and 3rd sets last week overhead after about 3-4 presses. My left shoulder would literally fall like I'd lost all muscle control with 10 lb weights. Yesterday I used the same 10 lbs and it wasn't until the 7th rep on the second set that I started to feel bad fatigue but pushed through. On the third set my shoulders were shot but I was still able to push overhead even if slower. I pushed to fatigue but didn't have that dangerous muscle drop I had before. The zinnias I grew from seed are mostly in full bloom and I took some pics before cutting some to put in a little vase.

A pound is a pound. Like you said it was enough to break a new barrier. Before you know it you'll be joining the Mr. in TwoVille.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you guys will figure it out. Maybe some workouts together and some apart, or even at the same time doing different stuff.
WOOHOO!!! That's all I have to say! :-)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the 1lb loss! At least it's in the right direction that's what I strive for. Good luck with finding balance with your workouts and weightloss. That's something I always struggle with too.
ReplyDeleteFeeling beaten up is probably good for both of you every once in a while (says the girl who felt so beaten up early last week that she let exercise slide for four days...) but I think an earlier poster said it best - maybe start working out separately one or two days a week, and the others together, then you get the best of both worlds.
ReplyDeleteOh..and congrats on getting out of the teens! That's pretty exciting!
ReplyDeleteA big WOOHOO on getting out of the teens! I know only losing a pound kind of sucks but at least your one pound closer to your goal. If you feel like what you did this last week was too much for you (i.e. feeling beaten up) and yet the intensity of the workouts this week helped the Mr maybe if you worked out together every day except for a couple of days a week it would work for the best for both of you. Those couple of days a week he could do the more intense workouts. I know me and my guy workout together except for a couple of days a week and it works for us. I'm sure the two of you will figure it out.
ReplyDeleteHave a great Sunday!
Hurray! Congrats on leaving the teens behind! :D
