I am so stinkin sore from yesterday. Never again will I take for granted the ability to walk pain-free. I put ice packs on my legs last night in hopes that would help this morning. nope. And after today my arms will be in the same situation.
partner workout #3. I would say it was ALMOST fun. Almost. The gym was rearranged when I came in and it kinda blew my mind a little. But anyways, we walked on the treadmill, then Darin told me to get on the bike and I kinda was like ughhhhhh. but then Jennifer did the squat/slam thing I did yesterday and I was okay with being on the bike haha. more than okay, actually. So while I was pedaling to the Netherlands, Jennifer was sweating her face off. Then we moved on to dead lifts, which, I was over that before it even began. My. legs. hurt. When things on me hurt, I know this is bad and shame on me and all that jazz, but I usually try to stay as still as possible/lay in my bed a lot, and let nature take it's course. We did what felt like to be 985 sets each of them and we did a "lightening round", and anything "fast" isn't my everything. I like slow. I'm slow in general. I didn't know Stevie Wonder was blind until I took a music history class and made a complete jackass out of myself in Dr. Jenkin's class one fine Wednesday morning. Anyways, after we did like 482,980 dead lifts, we moved to doing what are now known as "cable flys" but I still call them "the hulks" because that's exactly what I picture him doing for a workout. Those and lat pulldowns, back to back in "super sets", or what I call "stupid sets" in my head. Jennifer said the weight was light annnnnnnd truth be told I did too, a little. The third set of the hulks were rough for me. Sadly after alllllllll that we still weren't done. We went to the mats and I saw the timer on his phone and if you, like I, guessed we were doing planks, you, like I, would be wrong. We did something better than planks. Shoulder taps. When a regular plank just isn't cutting it, why not make things 10x more difficult? I had done them at boot camp and hated them, and I did them today and still hated them. Jennifer asked me if I'd done them before, and I explained at boot camp and she asked how they went. I answered as honestly as I knew how and said terrible. Darin said I was being dramatic, which could be true, but I'm going to pretend it's not and just go with the fact that shoulder taps suck. Then we did these ab things where you touch opposite hand to opposite foot crunch type things. I would have been fine if we had just laid on the floor for the rest of the time. All I'm saying is that I'm lazy and I know it. On the way home, my right bicep (or where a bicep would be on a normal person) was trembling. I like to think that's the result of the hulks and me becoming the hulk. However, as of the time of this writing I'm still plain old Vanessa.
I had chocolate cake for breakfast.
There. I said it. I can't log that on myfitnesspal because I know that was a bad decison. I left my breakfast in my car and wasn't about to get on the shuttle-o-death AGAIN to get it....and the cake was just there on my desk. It was only a small piece. And that is me justifying bad choices. Well. Trying to.
I also have an itunes/iphone problem. I dropped it today for the first time and I really do think that must be what a mom feels like when she drops her infant. I assume every baby gets dropped. It may have just been me. Well. Don't tell my mom I said that because I'm not sure if I was really dropped. I can only assume by the way I talk and act, it's the only explanation. Anyways, I also bought a guns n roses album today. It was 10 freakin dollars too. I said it was like 30 years old but apparently it's like 24. potato/tomato. old is old, and it shouldn't cost an arm and a leg since it's an antique. Moving on.
I have a partner workout on my birthday. Good thing I like Darin and Jennifer or that would suck haha. I'm glad I have tomorrow off from working out...if only I didn't have to work. Then life would be great. I guess I shouldn't complain though. I'm tired of working out with my personal trainer and going to a really good job. #princessproblems or #firstworldproblems at their finest.
Anyways, the next time I write a post I'll be 23! I remember saying when I was 17 "I'll feel like a real adult when I'm 23"...not so much. I dont feel any different than I did when I was 16, is this what getting old is like? like you just get older but you dont feel different? help me. Okay. That's all I have for now.
Except I'm attaching pictures that I find funny/applicable.
