First of all let me say I'm OVER hurricane sandy. I hate snow. With my entire heart. Annnnd I have a dentist appointment tomorrow. If it snows enough for me to miss work you can bet your last dollar I'm not going to the dentist. But lets also be clear, I've rescheduled my appointment like 3 times already. I'm a straight up child at the dentist. I always try to be brave but I generally can't make it past the waiting room before I start crying. Anxious Annie is my name.
Anyways, so I saw on Facebook Darin was saying the power at O3 was flickering and all workouts were go. Which is sketch to me because I don't do well in the dark. Moving on, I walked on the treadmill and we swapped dental horror stories and then we started with a round of dead lifts, incline press, squats and body weight rows. The minute I stepped up to the bar to start the power went out. Now whyyy couldn't that have happened when I was on the treadmill? God for sure has a sense of humor and my life is his playground. Anyways, we did 2 rounds of that which actually wasn't so bad. I mean it was hard but it wasn't boot camp ridiculous. Then we did another circuit of the seated row, flys, boot strappers (still not my jam) and Romanian dead lifts. I could do RDLs and flys allll day long and be happy to do it. Then we did these cable push and presses which were beyond not my everything. He started out saying its one of the complicated moves in his arsenal, which, that's not my favorite thing to hear. On the 1-10 scale I'd say they were like a 7. Though Darin has figured out my system. Go too high, he ain't buying what you're selling. Too low and you get more weight. It's a delicate situation. He was explaining the push/press and got to the squat part and I couldn't control my face. I'd rather do 1,000,000 of those than go to the dentist tomorrow. Ugh. Can you tell I'm like ready for it to be over? Then we did a 3pt row with 20lbs. It's heavier than it sounds haha. Then we stretched and my hip is still a hot mess. Really though. On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the best workout ever, today was a solid 8. I didn't love the boot strappers or the cable push/press but 2 out of like 15 isn't bad. Not bad at all. I'm almost converted to the dark side. And by the dark side I mean somewhat enjoying exercising. It's weird to think that I used to (allegedly, Darin brought it up today) give basically everything a 9. I mean I guess because I hadn't done any kind of organized exercise in uh ever.
overall today was excellent.
Though. We moved tomorrows partner shesh till Wednesday so that means 3 in a row for me.
Seriously. I need it to stop snowing. I'm going to charge my phone in case the power goes out. So. The princess (that would be me) lived happily ever after and wasn't sore at all the next day and didn't have to go to the dentist ever again and had a massive library with wonderful books and she got paid to read those books and lay in her bed and eat chips and never gained any weight. She also got to eat poptarts. Strawberry ones with whole milk.
The end.
