Building a Better Jay

Today was a solid back day and I feel good about the workout.  It also marks 1 month since I was released by my surgeon from therapy and I’m very interested to take measurements and pics over the weekend to see where I am.  I mean, I know my right arm still shows some deterioration from the post-op immobilization, but I’d like to see pics & measurements to quantify it.  I’m also interested to see where I am vs where I was.  It should be interesting….

I never did get in a nap yesterday like I had hoped.  It’s hard to first find a place to nap and then actually have enough time to nap.  When my son was born, I used to sneak out early for lunch and then drive to a local park to try to sleep in my car.  That never worked either.  I think I need a mattress under my desk.

Look for some updates this weekend with weight / pics / measurements.  It has been one full month since I was cleared to begin lifting again, so it will be interesting to see how close I am to where I’d like to be!

Today was a good leg day at the gym.  I was really feeling every rep of every set - just concentrating on contracting the muscle.  The weights weren’t huge, but my legs were just completely blown.  Love it!  Oh, and no DOMS for my bi’s.  I guess I’ll have to work harder next week!
