Officially done with week one live fit! Down to 115 which is what I weighed when I found out we were expecting. I'm happy with this weight but if I got down to 110 I wouldn't be too upset about :) That would be college weight, even though some people swear I weighed much less (I'll take it as a compliment!) People need to remember that I played soccer and we had to lift, and one of my roommates and I always went to workout on the weekend regardless of the shenanigans we got into the night before haha. I remember coming home one weekend and having to go buy new jeans because my butt grew from all the squats and lunges, thank you Coach A!
Many of you are on Pinterest these days and I must say I go in spurts, I usually have a specific reason when I get on that I am looking for. For example, Fitness has been a big hit for me since having Kypton almost four months ago. I love some of the quotes to keep me intense, the photos of what I hope to obtain in the end, and the food that looks decent that helps with building muscle (yuck, protein shakes!) Here are some of my favorite finds:
Have this quote for week two in my notebook where I keep track of my lifts/weights..

Love Jamie for putting it straight!

Perfect workout outfit

Week 3 notebook quote

LOVE these shoes..almost time for some new ones!

These are just a few of the things that keep me inspired. On the other hand I have the work, my notebook to keep track of everything has been really helpful, I can see what meals I am to eat, and all the lifts I need to do but there is also a place to keep track of the weight and reps so I can see how far I have come each week. This week was a good start but also showed how weak my arms are compared to what I thought (damn, reality haha) by weak I mean I could only use 4 pound weights for some of my reps! I really think it was a good building week as it was meant to be.
Typical day workout this week (each week will change a tad):
Legs/Calves day-
Leg Press: 3 sets of 12 reps | |||
Leg Extensions: 3 sets of 12 reps | |||
Sumo BB Squat: 3 sets of 12 reps | |||
Seated Leg Curl: 3 sets of 12 reps | |||
Standing Calf Raises: 3 sets of 12 reps | |||
Seated Calf Raises: 3 sets of |
Now if I could just convince my husband to join the gym with me to be my coach I think things would go even better, so if you have any ideas of how to do that I'm all ears! Bribing is recommended!
Post ya later, but one last image for you all...
