Crystal’s Rants

Typically I don’t do the two together but today I decided to pair back and chest and wow!!  I didn’t feel up to the challenge of cardio after a long day so instead I doubled up the bodyparts and OMG… by the time I was finished I was feeling that feeling you get when you have worked so hard you can barely move… but it was the best feeling ever!

My back is starting to come together a little more every day, i caught a glimpse out the side of my eye in the mirror during lat pulls and I can see the individual muscles moving back there now and shaping up well so excited!!

Another accomplishment for the day was progressing on my dumbbell press and incline dumbbell presses adding 5 more pounds on each side now doing so with 30s.. i am not the most coordinated when it comes to my right and left wanting to work together when I get to the failure part so this is a big deal to hold in there for 4 sets of 10 successfully!!

Today was a great day not only did I get my headshots back pleasantly surprised by them but I also put in a great day at the gym.  I have been having to change up my times a lot lately to fit my schedule but still hammering away at my goals step by step.  This entire week has been about adding weight for me, never more felt than yesterday’s backworkout, to which I also added an additional row to the mix.  But it is paying off I am getting better and better results.  Today as I went in I must say I was still feeling the soreness from back but I put together shoulders and triceps in just over an hour and felt like I had really accomplished something by the end of the workout!
