Week 2
Today I did not get up a 5:am due to “B” having some oral surgery done so I decided to hit the gym up after work to do some strength training. I was there for all of an hour and just had a crap workout. Flat bench went good; I’m up 15 pounds on my normal 4 set work out (160 lbs). Flat bench dumbbell presses were OK, 4 sets of 8 (55 lbs) and finished up with 4 sets of incline dumbbells (45 lbs) however that is as far as I got. There was another man on the incline press and i could not finish my chest workout which I guess just messed me up. so I kinda floundered around the gym. I did a full 3 sets of lat pull-downs (45, 45+25, 45+35) then 1 set of pull-ups. Left the gym kinda depressed. However Today’s Insanity workout was Cardio Power & Resistance. I missed Sat. workout and did not make it up š
My left foot had developed a problem and from what I have read it seems to be a Plantar Fasciitis injury. On the plus side, during my recovery from the broke foot my physical therapist taught me how to tape my foot for just this injury !
So after a good taping tonight I journeyed out to my workout. To my surprise my foot felt GREAT, which was a very good motivator. I powered through the warm-up and held my own through the 3 round 1work out set. Then I was burnt but pushed through.
I was absolutely exhausted when done but did not have to break as much as the 1st week. Improvement was seen. What a sweaty mess I was !! Pure Cardio tomorrow, last time I was disappointed in my performance in this work out. Let’s see if I can “Bring It” in the morning.
Weigh In: 175 lbs after workout.
