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.

That's definitely something to celebrate, congratulations!
ReplyDeleteThat is not only awesome, it's amazing. Especially during challenges like your recent illness. You guys are the king and queen of dedication!
ReplyDeleteMy longest streak? Three days?
No, I'm sure I have done five in a row, but I've always taken weekends off unless it was something fun like a hike. (Hangs head in shame.)
That is FANTASTIC, and definitely something to be proud of. I've been going since October, and that's the longest streak I've had in my life - quite happy about that!
ReplyDeleteMy goals are less than yours (3-5 workouts a week, not 5-6, with a rare 2 workout week). But I'm going on about 4 months.
ReplyDeleteI just love your whole blog. I think you're hilariously blunt and I love it. Congrats on your streak.
ReplyDeleteAlways great to see that you have accomplished something so amazing!!! Wow - so proud of you - and it does help that you have a workout buddy!! Keep up the good work

I'm still thinking about exercise. Actually I was faithful to walk for over two years but that stopped then I got married in 2009. That sounds like a cop out but it is the truth. Glad I found your site.
ReplyDeleteYou guys ROCK!!!! You are seriously superhero's!!!
ReplyDeleteI went a couple of years when I was in losing and early maintenance phase. Even now, i rarely miss a scheduled workout. I might "reschedule" the time or move the days around, but *something* will get done.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much everyone! Make it a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteYou are awesome--that is DEFINITELY something to be proud of! I'm always making excuses about why I can't exercise and it's silly. Your willpower is inspiring!
ReplyDeleteDefinatly celebration worthy! That is extreme dedication and you have earned every good thing!
ReplyDeleteYou two rock!
ReplyDeleteSo worth celebrating. I love it!!
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome!! My longest streak is 14 months straight.
ReplyDeleteYou guys are so awesome! I rarely ever miss scheduled workouts either. Most of the time when I have it's because I've been really sick, like vomiting or a fever when I had the flu. I will sometimes take a day off and rest if I have a bad cold, and occasionally if my kids have been sick or something is going on I miss them, but it's hardly ever. I have learned that we can't make excuses and just have to do it. I have exercised late at night after the kids are in bed when there was no other time during the day.
ReplyDeleteWow, congratulations!!!
ReplyDeleteWow that is so awesome!!! I wanna workout with you guys!!!
