Focus on form
Today’s goal was to get through my workout with good form and no injury, and I am proud to say that no QLs were harmed in deadlifting today so that’s a big win. I bumped bench to 115lb, just 5lb … Continue reading

Recovery day, hallelu
I’m feeling pretty beat up today, despite going to bed early last night and destroying my protes goals for the day. (C’mon body, knit that stuff in!) I thought about skipping the gym today, but I felt bad for not … Continue reading
Relentless sideways progress
I hit the weights in search of relentless forward progress today, but I sort of just strafed. I bumped bench to 110lb and it went up pretty easily for 5 sets of 5, so that was nice. Then squats: I … Continue reading

The day I lost my mind in HIIT class
Decline pushups (feet up on a step) on a Bosu Superman planks on a Bosu (opposite arm and leg raised) Burpee pushups with a Bosu Aside from being on a Bosu, these all have in common that they are some … Continue reading
Running meeting
Well, that was different. I’m working at home today, and I had a meeting to call in to this afternoon– you know the kind where it’s not any slides or anything, and you’re not really expected to interact, it’s just … Continue reading

It’s not a taper, it’s just not running for 3 weeks…
What do you do at the gym one day after an injury and one day before a race? For me, the answer is: not much, and hope for the best. Yes, I got dragged into running 5k try #3. It’s … Continue reading
Casual competition
Today’s lifting session started off amazing and ended not as well. I put Amon Amarth in my ears and got to work: Box Squat – 135x5x5 – These felt really good today and I put a lot of work into … Continue reading
HIIT it
Maybe the 5:30am start is worth it to have my workout done by 7:30? My train was late, and I joined the class right after the warmup. Good morning! Time for weighted lunges with kicks and burpees with dumbbells! Today’s … Continue reading
Monday Runday
This weekend was a little bit much. Saturday morning I was up at 5am to drive 2 hours to get my friend’s stuff into a U-Haul and into her new place. My partner threw his back out immediately (first lift … Continue reading
