Logging today’s workout… upper body.

Meh, average-to-fair session today. (Typing that reminds me of the hippie-dippie private elementary school I went to where, for first through third grades, we got graded only as “Outstanding,” “Excellent,” “Positive,” or “Needs Improvement,” and the grades were on things like “sharing with others.”)

My awesome gym decided to close for renovations for a week, apparently (yay), so I’m stuck lifting at home in the garage, i.e. a dark cave that could double as a steam room since SURPRISE, it’s raining again today. 

Still no cardio which I’m actually okay with right now since my appetite levels out anyways.

Log after the jump.

Bench press: 80# 6 X 3

Bent-over T-bar row with barbell: 95# 6 X 3

BB shoulder press: 65# 6 X 3

Triceps push-down (subbed for lying tricep extension, I don’t feel all that comfortable adding weight on that move any more and pushing to exhaustion with a weight over my skull): 35# x 6 (imminent fail approaching), 30# x 6 X 2

EZ-bar bicep curl: EZ-bar + 35# x 5 (DNF), + 30# 6 X 2

Just trying to stay healthy, fit, and sane in a world that is often none of these.

This blog is about healthy food, fitness, body image, self care, recovery, weightlifting, and all that kind of stuff.

After years of obsessive calorie-counting, bad habits, and worse self-image, I'm choosing to get better... So bear with me as I retool this blog a bit.
