Round 3 : Week 3 : Day 1

0 Comments

I really tried to push myself now that we have the new set of dumbbells. For some reason, though, I always feel like I'm not doing enough or lifting enough or trying hard enough. No matter how much I do, I feel like I'm copping out. Maybe it's a confidence thing?

Anyways, here are my lift stats for today (and keep in mind that this is only my third week ever trying weight training):

SQUAT √
35 lbs/4 sets/8 reps avg

BENT ROW –
35 lbs/4 sets/4 reps avg

CURL&OHP √
30 lbs/4 sets/6 reps avg

PULL +
30 lbs/4 sets/11 reps avg

LUNGE ?
20 lbs/4 sets/7 reps avg

TRICEP +
10 lbs/4 sets/12 reps avg

Lunges are really hard for me.  I feel like I just don't have the balance necessary to do these with weights.  Maybe next time I'll substitute deadlifts instead for a second leg lift. 

I'm really liking straight sets right now as well. Who knew weight lifting could be so fun and rewarding?!  I'm actually looking forward to Tuesday when we'll finally have a bench so I can do some bench presses!
