Dare to Soar BodyBlog

Last night I went to the gym.  Talk about dragging.  I knew if I told myself I was too tired I would skip.  My workout wasn’t as intense as I would like but I got it done.  I can feel it today so I know I did it some good.  I did cardio and worked chest.  Since I am really just getting back into training again consistently, I went simple: bench press, dumbbell press, dumbbell flyes, and peck deck.  All were four sets of 8 to 12 with medium weight.  I think the maximum I did on the bench was 115.  By mid April, I will start pushing myself again with drop sets and pyramids.  Start get my bench back up to the 200 for multiple reps.  That’s my goal for now.
 

Tonight I will train legs and butt.  That is going to be a major focus area over the next 8 weeks.  I plan on working them three days a week with weights and then adding in plyometrics, kempo and yoga on down days.  I know you are thinking over training but I know what it takes to shape them up.  I am going back to split training also.  Am cardio session, evening weight and other sessions.  I will take one complete day off with active rest. 
 

My motivation is high. I am committed to making positive changes.  I am determined.  I also think my new support group will help me stay motivated.

I have found that when you work together and encourage each other, everyone goes a lot farther. 
 

Well I have to get to work.

PS  I am working on a scholarship to get my personal training certification.  If any of my friends would like to email me a note of recommendation I can add to my application, it is much appreciated.
