The weakest link
Today’s lesson, learned through pain (just a little bit): You can’t lift what you can’t hold on to. I was feeling strong and even had my Liquid Grip, but a stupid form mistake cost me my deadlift work set today … Continue reading
Ill-advised yoga?
My delts and arms and upper back are tired and sore from the first swim of the year yesterday. So what do I decide to do for a workout today? Yoga. Shoulder opener power vinyasa practice. I didn’t even realize … Continue reading

Today I stared down deadlifts for the first time since hurting myself. First, though, I worked on bench, getting up to a 155lb single (just barely!) It gave me a good chance to work on something: breathing. For a less-challenging … Continue reading

Chronic frowny face
Well, this morning I’m in a 3 hour online training. Could be worse, at least I can multitask. But I had to get my workout in beforehand, so I came in early. I did lift a little, but only upper: … Continue reading
Low-key mode
The weather’s nice, my back still hurts, and my mom wanted me to call her– so I put on my headphones with the mic and walked around the ponds while chatting with her for 40 minutes. My talking scared all … Continue reading
Not again…
I had planned for today to be a good lower body lifting day. It didn’t exactly go as planned. I started off with squats, which actually did go pretty well. My tired lower back was much less tired, and I … Continue reading
