Overview of Week 1

Well, week 1 is over with…it was tough! Here’s a breakdown of how the week went.
Day 1- I did a post for this day, since it was so monumental. Please see it for details.
Day 2- The open wrist bicep curls superset with hammer curls were tough. The Bulgarian splits squats brought me to tears…seriously! It was hard to finish a set being completely exhausted and know that I had to do it again.
Day 3- I got to use my bands for the cable press and fly…loved that! The bicep curls are still killing me!!
Day 4- Today I used my exercise ball. Can’t say I ever hated it as much as I did today. All I know is that supine ball unilateral hamstring curls are freakin murder!! I cried again today. This time doing push ups. And, no it wasn’t when my arms completely gave out and I slammed into the floor…it was because I was so frustrated with myself that I could barely even do them.

All in all it was a great week. Funny to say that when I was pretty much torturing myself. I learned this week that I may not have muscles yet but I’m strong on the inside. I am determined. I pushed myself harder than I thought I could. I felt pain and exhaustion that I have never felt from exercise. I hurt and I cried but I didn’t give up.
