Wellness Support Thread

I went back to the gym today having only gone once on the last two months. And since I'd only been going for two months before medical reasons took me out, it's kind of a big deal. It would have been to easy to think "the hell with it" and stay in a rut but damn it I'm pretty proud of myself for sticking with it. I know I'm not the only one who's been through something similar and having someone to compliment a job well done or kick ya in the ass when you're slacking is EXTREMELY helpful. So here it is....whatever you're doing for wellness whether it's going to the gym, running, yoga, meditation, diet, whatever, check in here. Not only will it be motivation for you by tracking your progress but it might motivate someone else and I dont care who you are, everyone needs support for wellness goals. Chest Day: Warm-up: 10 mins elliptical 8 reps x 3 sets for the following: bench press (85#) chest flys (100#) incline press (20#) decline press (20#) For each, the last rep of the last set was my limit and all I could do to complete it which is exactly where I left off 2 months ago. Oh yeah, between exercise and eating better, I've went from 200 pounds to 182.

    Wow, great job, Sean. Very inspiring. I know it is high time that I get after it like you have done. Thanks for sharing and the nudge to get going.

    Talk about motivation! Of course, Sean has the advantage of being a Power Lung user, so we would all need to quadruple his workout to get the same results. I could stand to drop 18 pounds though (and 18 more on top of that).

    Good work Sean

    Before the ice breaker in Denver I was talking to Jim and Victor about my workouts and where in my sets I'm feeling the burn. They both suggested that I up my weights.

    So this week I did just that. I upped the weights for chest, back and arm routines (some more than others). My lats and triceps have been hating me all week and as of this morning my biceps too.

    No pain, no gain I guess.
