45x5x2
65x5
95x3
135x2
165x5x3Then, I proceeded to unrack my weights so I could start my deadlift routine:
45x5x2
135x5
160x3
170x5x3As I finished my first 170x5, I looked around the gym to see if Jen was…

Does anyone here know any work outs I can do over the next week in my dorm that don’t require weights that can help keep me on track for this workout for when the gym reopens?

Gym closes for the holidays - so I guess I’ll be doing mostly running for the next week or so. Kind of a bummer. Kind of a major bummer. But that’s okay. I’ll keep my weights where they are and hopefully move up by the end of next week in squats or deadlift. Press might take a couple :)
finding-myself-through-fitness:
Eating right. Strength training. Dedication. Lots of hard work.
I’m not completely at my goal body yet (I do not use scales) but I’m so much closer.
Don’t give up, my little fitness bunnies! You’ll get there!
All progress is great progress and you should be proud.
I know I am. :)
1. I love that this person doesn’t use scales.
2. LOOK AT DAT PROGRESS
3. I’m pretty close to September bod (which, hey, nothing wrong with that - already visible muscle) so my goal is totes to get to a similar november bod by end of Jan/Feb. :)
