FIGURING OUT THE FIFTIES.... SO THIS IS WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT.......

The Hump cometh.....

So a new week arrived and along with it came a new me... thankfully!!!!

Honestly it seems as if I have been doing a hill climb out of a slime covered razor blade for the last few weeks... but finally my head has cleared and I feel a lot more like me as opposed to a dragon which is being poked by trolls..

Not sure what has been going on but I am finally back on the ZMA so I am now sleeping (in between wee trips) soundly again... I have just read that zinc can also help with depression so maybe the sleeping and the extra zinc is what has tipped the scales back towards averagely normalish..

Trained chest and tris last night and have major tricep doms today... love that!! My chest doesn't get doms as much as it is really sore when I poke it... ouch.. like that.. ouch... and of course.. ouch.. since it hurts to poke.. ouch.. I poke.. ouch cause then I know I have worked it... ouch...

I am actually... although loathing that I am admitting this.. loving the morning cardio.... wow what a buzz you get afterwards... nothing like working till your singlet is literally dripping with sweat... hell that makes me feel fabulous... yep no princess hiding inside this skin lol

Had a great training session last Thursday night when the free weights room at the gym contained four people... all female... three of us getting ready for comps... it was great!!

Found out this morning that another Bribie beauty is now seeing Kel Johnson and is considering competing next year... hell that makes me feel so damn good... starting a bit of a revolution here on the speck off the coast lol

Hmmmm Hubby has just arrived back from grocery shopping so its time to hit the gym for Hammies, glutes, abs.... YES!!!

Tomorrow is hum day, measurement day, caliper day... not worried as I have been right on with the food and training since last Wednesday... so what ever the numbers say I know I did the best I could this week... and I even remained vaguely sane doing it... bonus!
