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.

What I'm Reading This Week #10

Happy Friday all! 

It's been a long, weird week and I'm ready for the weekend.  So let's just jump right into...

The Scary Reason You Should Never Wear Shoes Inside  (Um.  Eww)

Exercise and Plantar Fasciitis  (Good info to know!)

Women Are Giving Guys ‘Man-gagement’ Rings  (Sorry to burst your bubble so-called "trendsetters" but I gave the Mr an engagement ring back in 1994 so you're late to the party.  I remember his mom was bewildered which at the time made it that much more fun.)

Nothing really planned that I know of.  We've got company next weekend so it would behoove us to get a jump on things this weekend.  We'll see if that actually happens or not.  I suppose getting the vintage Santa artwork out of the bathroom is probably in order.  I've just been waiting for the Mr to say something and he hasn't so...Santa for everyone!

What are y'all into this weekend?

  2. Happy Friday! Tomorrow I have a meeting, then get labs done, then get a wheel alignment done all in the morning. Then it's gathering up the final tax stuff for the accountant on Monday and doing laundry and cleaning. I slacked big time this week so I need to get my head back in the game. Have a super weekend!!

  3. LOL . . . I love your comment about Santa in the bathroom. I still have my Christmas lights up, set to come on automatically, and my natural Christmas wreath is still hanging on my front door.
