Day 43 and boy am I tired...
I decided that my legs are losing their curve and strength so I need to up the weights and intensify the training. So, today was a leg day and I hadn't realized how long it has been since I lifted like a mad woman. Today's workout:
Walking lunges - 3 sets, alt,. light (35 lb barbell) and heavy (75 lb barbell) weight
Squats - 3 sets: 135, 185, 225 lbs
Standing Leg Curl - 3 sets
one leg deadlift
step ups (35lbs dumbbells)
Cardio! Interval Training (20 minutes)
Front/Zercher squats: 5 sets, 8-10 reps (65 lbs)
donkey kicks (side and rear)
My legs are toast! But it feels so good! I'm about to eat again, a bit of oatmeal and some protein before bed. Tomorrow is going to be upper body work. I haven't decided what yet.

Ok, so TOM is here and that means a bit of bloating and a salt craving, with a side of pressure headache and lethargy. Hubby doing good keeping the sodium down - found low-sodium taco seasoning and it was very good, I didn't miss the extra salt and my salt craving was still satisfied. I had originally planned to go bawls out for Taco Night being that it coincides with TOM, but we're spending the day at my mom's Saturday and surely ordering in, so that will be my cheat day instead. Mamaduke is in no way eating healthy, lol.
