Day 3 - Shoulders/Arms and then Ab Ripper X...of course.

Yes!! Today was a GOOD day! Y'know how I mentioned a couple days ago I thought I was a strong chick? Well that came in handy today. Shoulders and arms have always been my favourite muscle group to work at the gym, so I was pumped for tonight's workout. After the last two days, I needed a workout where I knew I could kill it. I wouldn't say I did exactly that, but I felt strong, and I was going until complete failure. (For those who may not understand what I mean by failure, I mean muscle failure. Lifting to the point where I can no longer lift a single pound even if I even wanted to.) I was keeping up with Tony and the gang pretty well (with most likely half the weight that Drea was using), but I was still grunting out the last few reps. All the shoulder and triceps exercises I'm starting on 7lb weights, and biceps I'm starting with 10 and it seems to be a pretty good place to be for now.

Wednesdays are my new favourite days. Except for the Ab Ripper X part...which is still so so hard, and I definitely had to pause a few times for fear of upchucking. Hey...I hate it....but I LOVE it!
