You guys I had the best workout!!
I was really dragging this morning but was determined to show up and do the work. I went in to the gym determined to push myself. And I hit a PR! On the lat pull down I usually do a set at 40# and then a couple of sets at 50#. Today I set it at 40# climbed up on the seat grabbed on to the bar and knocked out my 10 reps with ease. I reached over to up the weight and realized there was a 10# weight plate added to it! SO I took it off and changed it to 75#. I did 3 sets of 5! The best part, the bodybuilder using the other side of the cable machine next to me kept looking at me (I look a little crazy hopping up on the seat to grab the bar each time I start a set) and when I was done he smiled and stuck his fist out for me to bump! lol
I didn't do so great with my first try on the bench though. I was wobbly. The bar feels like 45# I didn't use any plates. It's not too heavy but not light enough for me to control easily. I missed the hook when trying to re-rack the right side. I panicked for a second but I just used the other hand to get it up there. I will continue to practice with it but I wont rely on that movement alone until I build up strength.

I came home and had a piece of dark chocolate oreo cake I made and Salmon and peas. An hour later I had cherries, sausage and eggs on Asiago foccacia. I also had a little breakfast and pre work out shake before the gym 👍
I ordered some knee sleeves. I can't wait for my next deadlift day. I saw a guy move a couple of benches out of the way and dead right in the middle without anyone complaining so I will do that next time.
