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.

It is something when you see it's week 50. That last stretch of every year is so special too. That is one thing I really miss from being a kid was we'd get to about 12/20 and then there was no more school until January. Heck even in college I kind of got some of that too. Why can't work be that way without having to take time off? Oh well, have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteIt was a hellish week for numerous reasons and the cortisol and inflammation levels were amped up a lot. But some blessings were sprinkled in, so I'll take it. Had a check up this morning, then met the hubs at the grocery store and we hit two stores to gather up Christmas dinner ingredients. Now we're home and I'm doing laundry, a few Walmart and Chewy orders and will begin making my brownies and pudding fudge for our peeps on Monday. Then I begin my workweek tomorrow...le sigh.
ReplyDeleteI hope you do get out of the house and enjoy some festivities, even if it's driving to a whole different town to see their displays. The hubs just put up our tiny tree from Wayfair yesterday and it's so cute. Skinny and proud. LOL
