Hello!!!!
Day 2 of Live Fit was back/bicep day and it wasn’t bad!. I
was really dreading the workout because like I said before, I'm a little
intimidated by the gym and all the big equipment. Lol. It turned out not to be
bad at all. It seemed like it was going to be a tough one but I got through the
entire thing pretty easily. I'm not saying it was easy, it was definitely
intense! I can only assume that I'm using the correct amount of weight since
towards the end of the 3rd set of reps I start to feel fatigued.
According to the website that’s how you’re supposed to know if you’re lifting
the correct amount. I guess I just want to be stronger already but it will come
in due time. :)
Day 2’s workout consisted of the following exercises: Wide grip
lat pull down, one arm dumbbell rows, seated cable rows, underhand cable pull
downs, dumbbell alternate bicep curls, and standing bicep curls.
I didn’t write this post like I planned on doing last night,
I can tell you guys about the soreness. I didn’t think that I would be
extremely sore or anything but I was expecting some since I was working out
areas that I don’t normally use. My back and biceps are indeed sore today. When
turning to either side there is some tenderness. I turned, while sitting, to
pick something up and quickly remembered that I was sore. It’s nothing
unbearable but it’s a nice reminder. My arms are sore. At this point, I'm not
sure if they’re ever going to not be sore. Lol. I “practiced” doing pushups for
2 days prior to day 1’s workouts. Just to give myself a better chance at being
able to make it thru. I haven’t decided if that was a mistake or not due to the
fact that I’ve been sore ever since and that I made it through the workout
doing all the pushups. So, I went from not working out at all to doing pushups
for 2 days, working out my chest and triceps, then moving on to back and
biceps. Sooooo, I don’t see my arms calming down anytime soon. Maybe tomorrow
on leg and calve day.
Well, all in all the workout was awesome. I'm still loving
the program and I'm still motivated. Looking forward to tomorrow’s workout
since I fancy myself a bit of a leg girl. :) Day 3, full steam ahead!!
