Training 2014 - Week 2

So, this is my second post where I condense my training into one weekly post.

I trained with Sarah on Sunday and Wednesday again.  Sunday was leg day and it was super tough.  I'm writing the Sunday portion of this post on Tuesday morning and my booty still hurts!  But it's a good hurt.  My workout included thrusters (with 30 pounds), deadlifts, TRX reverse lunges, and much, much more!

Monday morning when I work up an stretched, my everything hurt.  My glutes haven't been that sore since my very first workout with Sarah.  I'm not mad because that just means I'm closer to achieving those Kim K curves.   Exhibit A, Kim K

Wednesday was arm day.  It was every bit as tough as Sunday. I was still a smidge sore from Sunday, but it was all good.  We'll see how I feel on Thursday morning.  I wouldn't be surprised if I'm at least a little sore.  I have been working pretty hard.

I'm starting to see some positive things in my reflection.  I went to Target last week and bought my first pair of pants from there....REGULAR clothes!!!  My pant size in the plus-sized store was a 14, but in the Target pants I am an 18.  I'm not too disturbed by the "jump" in sizes because I can fit into pants at a regular store!  Very exciting!!!!

Training 2014 - Week 1

I've decided to do a weekly post about my training, how it felt, any new accomplishments, et cetera.

Technically, I've had three sessions this year since 2014 started mid-week, but this is my first full calendar week of training.

Sunday was leg day and I've already blogged about that.  Wednesday was arm day.   The cardio part of my workout was pushing the Prowler Sleigh for a minute.  I did that three times.  Sarah put 145 pounds on it and I googled Prowler weight and an average Prowler weighs 75 pounds.  So, I was pushing around practically my entire body weight (220 versus 223.8)

For those of you who don't know what I am talking about, here is a picture (not of me, but of what I was doing):

That combined with the other weights I lifted left me very tired.  Sarah really challenges me and I love it!  I'm not really sore and I think I can the L-Glutamine has something to do with that.  

I have to say 2014 is turning out to be a good year.  I've done a 5k, I've reached my 50 pound goal, I've run for 20 minutes straight, my training is awesome.
