Day 98

Today I procrastinated waaaay too much with exercise. I had all these plans and all of them just fell through. My youngest son was just not having any of it today so I kept putting it off for later and later and later and I ended up just working with weights tonight instead of getting on the elliptical.

I did 3 sets of 10 bent over rows with my 8-pound dumbbells and I did 3 sets of 10 deadlifts also with my both of my 8-pound dumbbells.

I hope to go to bed early and not procrastinate sleep lol, so that I can wake up early and exercise on the elliptical. It's supposed to rain so that makes for a nice indoor day.

One day at a time. One choice at a time.

I can do all things in Christ who gives me strength.

Day 91

Today I procrastinated. All day. I did everything else under the sun,  including cleaning old clothes or of the closet, washing them (3 loads) and bagging them for donation. Then I did the dishes.  I hate the dishes so that just shows how much I procrastinated.

THEN, when I finally decided to suck it up and do it,  I couldn't find the "shoes" (they are like indoor sock/slippers that I only wear on the elliptical bc I can't feel the tread with them and regular shoes are too restricting). I found them before bed in my son's room.

Anyway I decided to just lift instead,  and I lifted until fatigue, which didn't take much lol (my arms and shoulders are quivering right now!)

I only did 2 sets of each of 15-20 reps,  with my 8#ers, front raises, shoulder shrugs and side bends. My arms are shaking so badly right now that it's becoming difficult to type/"swipe" this on my phone! Of to bed and will try for a better day.

One day at a time. One choice at a time.

I can do all things in Christ who gives me strength.

Day 10

Today I still don't feel well. It was a work day and I just felt achy all day long.

I got home and decided to use my free weights again. I worked on my back and my biceps. I did 3 sets of 10 dumbbell curls, alternating arms, with 8 pounds. My RPE was about a 5-6.

For my back I decided to work my lats with one arm dumbbell rows also using my 8 pounders, doing also three sets of 10 reps. My RPE was probably a 4-5.

Off to bed. I need to get better soon bc it's my older sons birthday party this weekend! I still need to figure out what cake to make him. Oye.

One day at a time. One choice at a time.
