Got up this morning after a pretty crappy night sleep (thanks Quinn aka super pooch). Took the dog for a very brief 15 minute walk and the dog refused to go any further. Brought her home, fed her and went downstairs to do a Power90 Strength workout (Level 3- 4). My how I have fallen.
The workout was TOUGH. I struggled in all elements of it. For simplicity I tried to just use the RED resistance bands I used the first time I ever did the workout. The issue is it doesn't work very well for certain exercises. In addition to that, I have some weak wrists. I've been able to get by that in the past by using the push up bars. They've worked well. I still struggled. Especially my left wrist where I was wearing the heart rate monitor watch. I may have to just leave that off when I'm doing strength because I found it getting in the way when I did bicep exercises as well.
Lunge/Squat combos - still a killer. VERY tough for me. My legs (or the rest of my body for that matter) just isn't as strong as it used to be. I SUCKED. I'll do better next time though. At least I got up and did something, which is half the battle. Just a reminder that I just have to do it. I just have to get up and do something or forever feel weak.
