Jane's Journal

took an early lunch and went to the gym. I was excited because I was able to use the barbell today. I have never used the barbell for anything unless it was connected to something.   
 
Squats: 2X12--added 70 lbs to the barbell so that makes it 115 right? 

Push ups: 2X12
seated row 2X12@110 lbs

step ups: 2X12 (50 lbs dumbells)
prone jackknife: 2X10 

.25 miles @ 3.5
 
diet so far is good.
special k/non-fat milk
veggies/brown rice/chicken+salmon

diet was good.
Deadlifts: 2X12 70 pds added to bar   
Dumbell shoulder press: 2X12 20 lbs/each hand 
Wide Grip pulldown: 2 sets 80/12 90/12
Lunges: 2X12 2/25 dumbells
crunches on swiss ball: 2X10
 
 

Yes. The bar is 45 so 45+70=115.

Funny I never think of it that way. I think 25 is 95, 35 is 115, 45 is 135, 2-45s and 25 are 275. More like I memorized a table then add it all together. I think if you keep lifting and looking around at other weights people are lifting in the gym you'll start to do it too.

5'6" 125/ Bench: 115 / Front squat: 90 / Deadlift: 205 / Pullups: 10

I am taking the sat and sun off. unless I change my mind I do that all the time. going to the gym not diet. Diet remains the same.
 
I am down to 33 inches!!!! I am excited.
It is just 1/2 an inch but it is better than no inches. Baby steps! From past experience the slower it comes off the longer it stays off.
The beginning of this year I was 34 3/4 inches
I really like the lifting. I take my list then I write down what I do. Silly but it helps keep focus on what I need to do.   

Almost 2 inches in 11 weeks is awesome!

diet was good. went to happy hour it only takes a few to be wooooozy! So i will stop typing because I just wanted to record my workout. but diet was not that great because I had some drinks.
 
tomorrow is a new day.
but I bought two new dresses because I look good in them and I need them for work my legs look real gooooooooooood in my dresses with my heels.   

YOu do have strong legs Jane.

Got a question, how high is your Step, for your step up?

I was not able to go to gym so I will take it as a rest day.
 
theHardway--for step ups I use a bench. I would say it is the height of a chair (approx).
 
I have noticed major changes in lower body since I started doing the NROL. calves, glutes, hamstrings and quads look muscular. I think it is kinda crazy becuase I just started!
 
 
now my gut is a different story

In time Jane that will be nothing more than a memory.

DAMN!!!! When you are so pissed off your workouts are awesome (well at least for me). When I was done I was ready enough to fight a dude and kick his a**.
 
I had time during lunch so I went to the gym.
