My second day lifting without my brace and it went just fine. I have what’s known as negative-ulner variance in my left wrist and in the past, the arthritis pain has led me to believe that I can only lift with a brace. I’ve done that for years now and until recently, thought that it was just the way it had to be….until the day before yesterday. I blogged on that already, so I won’t get into it again, but I did shoulders yesterday without the brace and it felt great.
Shoulder work included dumbell military press, bent-over laterals, seated and standing laterals, and behind the back shrugs on the smith. Then it was off to 30 min of ab work, followed by about 30 min of cardio.
I feel good today. I think that slowly, I’m losing that layer of fat that prohibits me from seeing the six-pack I used to have. My diet has been pretty good too although I did cheat a couple days ago. But overall, I’m eating clean and often, getting as much protein in as possible, and hopefully will soon reap the benefits.
