3/2 Workout: Chest & Back

Barbell Bench Press

Today’s chest and back workout felt pretty tough. I’m not sure if it was because I did legs Sunday instead of Saturday and lost an extra day of rest, or if it was because we started a little later than normal. It was probably a combination of both, but I really struggled with my flat bench press. Boo. :(

I did the same exact bench press workout (same amount of sets, reps & weight) that I did last week, but it felt a lot harder today and I hate that feeling.

*I planned on doing cardio after this workout, but I’m going to do it tomorrow instead.

I’m looking forward to watching ‘Biggest Loser’ tonight – It’s finally back! I love watching Jillian sit on people and/or machines while they’re working out. She’s like Spiderman! I’m also looking forward to their super cheesy product recommendations, like the Extra Sugar Free Gum and Multi-Grain Cheerios. They make me laugh. :)

Have a fabulous night!

All the best,

Melinda
