Week 3 kicked off with a little chaos, but the training rhythm is coming together, and I’m finding my footing with food, mobility, and the return to running.
Sunday – Reset Mode
Low-key recovery day. I didn’t leave the house, didn’t push it. I did get a nap in, so I felt rested and ready to hit the week.
Monday – Leg Press Lunacy
Kicked off the gym week with severly interupted sleep, but not from the dogs this time. The shower caddy decided to jump off the wall at 1 AM, and it was a bitch getting back to sleep. But I made it to the gym for bilateral legs and shoulders. I’m slowly pushing on weights to find my upper limit. I got the dogs out for their walk, and GMB afterward felt good.
Tuesday – Back on the Road
Finally ran again. Two miles of intervals to get my legs back into the groove.Got the dogs out for their walk, then did my GMB and mobility afterward. I had good energy all day which was a nice change.
Wednesday – Chest and Triceps
Chest and triceps day was solid even though the incline press had to move to the end of the session. Huge gym, but not always enough machines. Sadly, the steam room was down yet again, so I hit the sauna for a quick shot of recovery heat. Dogs got their walk in, and I hit my GMB flow.
Midweek Mood
Energy is holding. Sleep is still a bit wonky, but not wrecking me. Carbs are finally climbing without just shoving bread down my throat. Running’s back, and the weight is nudging down without giving up muscle. Here’s to momentum!
Still lifting. Still losing. Still showing up (Usually).
