Katscratch 2013: Sunny With a Chance of BOOM

[katscratch]

Squats still just feel "weak" - plan for tomorrow includes adding back in core type stuffs.  Borrrring.  But necessary, i think.

Glad to see you are back in the gym again & great lifts btw!

Howzat!

 

I'm doing exactly what you're doing, a couple of months of not really training and my ability to stay upright and tight under heavy loads has lessened dramatically. "Get back on track Jack!"

yeah....looks like tweaking my back at work during summer may be more than a muscle/ligament issue.... have a referral name from my fave spine surgeon.  in the meantime no squats, deads, overhead press- essentially no lifts that increase axial load.  So, bench is going well.  HA.  

 

i am supposed to be doing bodyweight stuffs to continue increasing core strength and flexibility, but they aren't nearly as fun as lifting, so i've been really slack.  and i have a belly!  which is kinda awesome because i never have aside from being preggers but also UM WHAT.  like, i was actually really enamored of it for a month, but now it's overstayed its welcome

 

but, the weather is cooling quickly which means regular gym schedule instead of this sporadic summer stuff.  i might have to buy a swimsuit and see if i remember how to swim properly!  oh, i mean, do hollow core holds and other not exciting static stuffs.

Can we make "belly girl problems" a trend? Because when I say it out loud is sounds hilarious. 

 

You know, swim and bitch away if you need to. You know I'm always down for free drinks and bad advice.....

 

This guy opened for Dessa last month and he was so good I bought his album (and I still think he's good). Hmmm, you are the only one I know who gets my 'Dessa Fangirl' side. Temped to photo bomb you....
