Good Morning...well I have been busy training hard and feeling nothing but large..LOL. I spent most of the weekend resting and relaxing to prevent overtraining syndrome.. YUCK.. Decided that I will do the power lifting meet on October 5th instead of the WBFF show- a decision which I am still struggling with. I am going to take the advice of waiting and building quality muscle and do a couple of shows next year. Not happy with the decision, but I will try... ANyway.. got my "singlet" which is what you have to wear during a meet. It is just a tight spandex suit (great :( )At least it is pink and black! I also got some pink/black knee wraps, etc. Might as well be color coordinated if I have to wear this shit..ha.
Began the week with a 5 mile run & then did chest. Bench pressed quite a bit on Monday - ending with 4 reps of 115 lbs. I then did decline bar, and dumbbell incline press 35 pounds. Yesterday I tried Hot Yoga for the first time.. Really liked it, but sweat like a stuffed pig!! That made me tired. So then I hit the gym and kind of tanked on deadlifting and back. I am still struggling with deadlifting from the floor, so we are practicing with varying degrees of being near the floor. Wasn't able to deadlift more than 135 pounds. My trainer seemed frustrated with me, which always makes me feel bad and I have to fall back on - give me a break I am soon to be 48, 105 pounds and tired! Moved on to pulldowns at 60 pounds and rows at 60 pounds. Getting ready for another run of 5 miles before it rains today and gets incredibly hot and muggy....
