- I did Cathe's Lift It, HiiT It: Chest, Triceps, & Shoulders workout this morning, which is the sister workout to the back, biceps, and shoulders workout I did two days ago.
- This workout is set up exactly the same as the previous workout: Three sets of three exercises per body part, with a "finisher" exercise after each set of three for what can only be torture
- Well, there are finisher moves unless you pick a premix that excludes them, like I did (I had abs after each body part)
- So many chest presses. So, so many. WHY CATHE
 |
| I just...no more chest presses. |
- But so, so much barbell. Awesome.
- The shoulder exercises were much, much tougher than the sister workout. Like "lift this heavy barbell over your head many many times" hard.
- When I went to do planks after the last set of triceps exercises, my arm was all "NOPE not going to be straight for you AT ALL"
- I still enjoyed the workout. Except for the chest presses.
Learnings below:
- I don't have a ton of time to post to today, so you just get bullet points galore with some stupid pictures.
- I want to include these workouts in my marathon training cycle, but I also want to do total body two days a week. I'm still working it all out.
- Oh, I'm going to run a little too in my next training cycle. In case you think I forgot about that.
- Chest presses are better than push-ups. But only by a little.
- Did you find the cat in that last picture? I bet you did.
Tomorrow's workout: Some running. Hoping for four miles with large dog if it's warm enough.
