Body Beast Bulk Back.. DONE!
I got my new pull up assist so I got to use it!!! It has 3 bands, each 30 pounds of assistance, and I had to use all 3
But I have no where to go but "up"!! At least now I have a way to get better at pull-ups!!
I used the heavy weights I used last time, but this time my grip gave out before the muscles. My forearms were sore after my arms workout 2 days ago, and I guess they haven't recovered. I need to find my metal grips that help me hold the weights. I think that was the most disappointing thing about my workout!
it was short, and I watched from when Clarence saves George Bailey until the end of "It's a Wonderful Life" while I did it. I love that part of the movie the best!!! Where he sees how many people he has touched in his life, and decides going to jail is better than losing his life. Good lesson for sure!
I slept like crap last night. I only slept 5 hours, but was up at 3:45am because I had to go potty. I didn't want to go all the way into the house, then I knew I'd never get back to sleep. So I tried to fall back to sleep. Tough when you have a bladder full! I ended up waking up. Hopefully I will take a nap today if I need to.
I usually try to stop drinking water at 7pm so my body can process it through, but the day got away from me yesterday and I drank until 8pm. I paid for that one!!
We had to go to DH's shop yesterday to do taxes, other than that LB did a manicure on me (since I didn't have one done the other day) and I napped while she did it. I know I napped because she had on the movie "Spiderman" and i missed most of it. HA! So I guess it's ok I didn't sleep well last night. I had a good nap yesterday!
the 10 day forecast says lots of 80 something degree days. I'm not a fan of that.
Eventmom: I have heard here that they are going back regular schedule, just with social distancing and the kids have to wear masks. I'm not a fan of the kids wearing masks at all! I have heard parents have to option to school at home though, with the public school curriculum, so we'll have to see which way parents go. I'm so glad we homeschool right now. I hope you get your new trailer! Sounds like you need it!
Ebianco: good to see you! I love that you are doing Firms. Motivates me to look my mine again though. I love the Firm!! I'm glad your knee is doing good. I wonder if something just needed to be eased back into place a bit, and now it's done? our bodies are so amazing, but one little thing sure can cause problems in different areas! I remember when I was in massage school, my main instructor used to say "I stubbed my big toe now I have a headache" and he would talk about how the change in your gait from stubing your toe would change how you walked, and it would affect the body all the way up to your head. It was pretty amazing how easily we can be out of whack.
I have heard people ready to get back to the office, and people who are liking being at home so much they don't want to! I wouldn't miss the commute and the people, honestly. My sister talks about how she can get a full days work in now in about 4 hours because there's no interruptions. I think she is going back to the office soon (she works for a University) so we'll see how long that lasts before they are all sent home again.
I hope your stress eventually turns to good stress. Like, where it's crazy but you can ride it like a surfer on a wave!
