What? Lower expectations? That's normally not a great thing but today for me it was. As I mentioned, I haven't done weights in quite a while. So when I went to the gym this morning (yay - victory!) to do chest & shoulders, I told myself not to expect to be on par with where I was the last time I did weights.
I went in with an open mind and did my best but also didn't try to kill myself. Surprisingly, there were quite a few sets I was able to do the same weight as last time but maybe not quite as many reps. And I know that will come with time.
Some of the exercises (hanging shoulder raises), I was able to do the exact same -- I couldn't believe it!
Shoulder press, which is probably my least favorite, was definitely the hardest but that's no surprise for me. It's the hardest for me when I'm in the gym every day. lol
What a great start to a rainy Saturday though.....now the other half of my struggles - to make sure I keep my eating in check today. Wish me luck!
