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.

Hiya!
ReplyDeleteSlow start for me this week!
Just a few work meetings so I was productive. Today will be back to back all morning, ugh.
Have a great week!
Those au-gratin potatoes you made for Easter would actually be a perfect side dish for a good cookout. Assuming I could follow the recipe I will bring that!
ReplyDeleteI make a stuffed garlic mozzarella bread loaf that gets cooked on the grill, so I'd bring that to heat right before we settled down to chow.
ReplyDeleteI'm not much of a cook, so I'll bring chips and salsa. Or I'll buy the meat and let the host cook it.
ReplyDeleteLoaded Baked Potato Salad!!! So yummy and it has bacon!
ReplyDeleteI don't have a usual side dish I bring. Right now I have half a head of cabbage in the fridge I need to use so probably some sort of asian inspired slaw, with shredded carrots, ginger, rice vinegar, and maybe some toasted sunflower seeds if the package I have in the pantry is still fresh. Based on previous suggestions I think I'd enjoy this cookout!
ReplyDeleteA broccoli salad with sunflower seeds and dried cranberries. I love it, but so many people making/buying a heavy dressing and then overdressing the salad I will often pass on it or only have a very small amount. If I bring it I get to eat something I love and I can control the contents and quantity of the dressing. Otherwise I will bring coleslaw with a homemade dressing. If you can't tell, I like cookout sides with crunch :)
