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.

  2. Those were pretty interesting. Maybe I should've read the snow shoveling one last week. One day it took me two and a half hours to dig out. Boo.

    On the other hand, 2.5 hours x 279 calories per 30 minutes (based on my age/weight/height) = SCORE!

    Next time I hit the squat machine thing at Curves I'll definitely be more aware of my form too. The author it right, it's far too easy to get sloppy.
