This is basically how I felt at the gym yesterday. 

Haven’t made a Warrior Dash Training post in a while so I thought I’d give some highlights of my progress over the last week:

• graduated to bench pressing with the BB
• curling 20lb DBs
• BB squats instead of DB squats
• Straight Bar Curls with 40lbs
• moved up to 110lbs in addition to the bar on the leg press

I’m really pleased with the progress I’ve been making. I notice it in the way my body moves and in my running!

So I am going to start posting the weights I do in my workouts to show my progress. It might not be impressive now, but I’m pleased with the progress I’ve made since starting two weeks ago. I think I’m going to start phasing in the workouts from Jamie Eason’s LiveFit Training schedule. 

Going to weigh in tomorrow to see how my exercise and Jillian Michael’s water cleanse has been paying off! Maybe I’ll even post a progress pic if I’m feeling confident!
