8 Week Challenge - Day 4 & 5
Yesterday I had a day off. I was still a bit sore from my work outs and thought it was a good day to catch up on some much needed sleep. I spend a lot of my time laying in bed sleeping. I didn’t do too well with sticking to the meal plan. I felt rebellious and that is never a good thing. I messed up, but I am not going to worry about it. Today is a brand new day!
Today I had an assessment at the gym with Matt. He took my measurements and my weight. He came up with a nice resistance/weight program. It’s less than I used to do, but it’s a good one. It’s more focused on my hip and back problems. I started off with doing walking lunges, which was pretty hard for me to do. Than I did the chest press, seated row, leg press with feet/knees together and to finish it off the hip abduction.
