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.

  1. I've had some kind of horrible stomach thing going on all week, so it's been a painful one to say the least. I need to cut the lawn when I get home from work as the hubs has worked 68 hours this week and has to work a full shift tomorrow as well, poor guy. Tomorrow I have a meeting, then will go grocery shopping right afterwards, then do the laundry, so then Sunday will be free as a bird. Have a wonderful weekend!
