Sweat is weakness leaving the body.
Baby bicep!
Hurts so good
I took a break from lifting (and just exercise in general) last week because my knees had started to hurt to the point where I was uncomfortable walking and taking extra work-from-home days to avoid putting weight on them. So I figured I should rest for a bit to prevent doing any permanent damage.
I eased back into it on Saturday and greatly improved my squat form (using a 20-lb barbell). Today was deadlifts and I used the lightweight (30-lb) training bar and, again, just really focused on my form.
I’ve been sore (the good kind!) for three days now and I’m ecstatic.
Now to find some decent vegan protein bars...
Don't you dare look back
I got to the gym at 4:10 this morning. After stretching and warming up (by jumping rope to dubstep), I moved on to lifting weights.
Today was squat day and I’m still using dumbbells because the Olympic barbell is just a tad too heavy for me (at 45 lbs). But! I squatted with two 20-lb dumbbells today so I think I’ll move on to the barbell on Monday. Progress!
I’ve also moved up in weight in my other exercises today: 60-lb rows and 25-lb step-ups. (I’m adding weight slowly because the high step is difficult to climb while trying to maintain good form.
I use 7 risers under the step to make it harder–and then curse at myself in the mirror when I can’t keep my form consistently. Makes sense, right?) My push-ups are still done at the knees and I’m not sure how to make them more difficult without moving onto actual push-ups yet. The prone jackknife crunches done on the exercise ball are going well. (I’m trying to get more stability on the Swiss-ball, though, and figure out how to dismount gracefully. Failing hard at the latter…)
I have a full workday ahead of me, followed by a 4-hour drive to Waltham, MA, for a conference. I’ve never driven more than 1 hour anywhere by myself. (And that’s to locations I’ve been before, on roads I know with signs I recognize.) This will be an interesting exercise in self-reliance and navigation.
Today is going to be a long day.

Today I have: - watched 4 episodes of House. About to watch my fifth because that's the sort of girl I am - fully committed to the cause. - been for a walk around the woods with a big and a little dog 🐶🐶 - ate a pizza 🍕 - a dog lying on my feet - been incredibly thirsty and am on 2litres of water so far Also I have been thinking of trying the New Rules of Lifting for Women. I read it over a year ago and started the work outs but only did the first week. Thinking that in a few weeks stopping Strong Lifts and starting that maybe? Not sure. Can someone who's done it let me know how long the work outs are at the start?? Or let me know how they are finding it!
Todays NROL4W Workout
First in a week or so! It felt good to hit the weights again! 3 sets x 10 reps: Deadlift - 65/85/85 Dumbbell Shoulder Press - 15/20/15 Wide-Grip Lat Pulldown - 55 (tried for 70 on the last set but I could only do 4 reps) Weighted Lunges - 25lbs - new PR! Plus a tiny bit of abs and then 1.5 miles of HIIT on the treadmill - got up to under a 7 minute mile for a minute or so!
Today’s workout - NROL4W Workout A5
Finally got to mix it up a bit with this workout - 3 sets of 10 reps instead of 2 sets of 12/15!
Squats - 65/70lbs - new PR, added 5lbs for the last set!
Push-ups - with my feet on a short plyo box for 15 reps per set
Dumbbell Squat/Row - 20lbs - last time I was only able to do this weight for one of two sets, this time i did it for all three!!
Step-Up - 25lbs - another PR!
Prone Jackknife - my balance is getting better on these but I still feel like I’m not feeling it in my abs as much as I should idk
anyways yay so many PRs/NSVs!!! and when i walked up to the squat rack some butthole had left it on the safety bars instead of the hook things where it’s supposed to go but I was so surprised at how easy i was able to lift it up! it felt so light compared to just a few weeks ago when I could hardly squat it for 15 reps! eep!!
