My goal for the year is to not injure myself. My physical as well as my mental health are ongoing projects. My neck's been relatively pain-free (knock wood). I aim to keep it that way. My overall mood has been pretty good, all things considered. Not too many wild fluctuations. The Prozac and the therapy are working.
Progress in the gym has been slow and steady. I was sick this past week. It coincided with my planned deload week, so I did nothing but rest.
First workout of the year.
Broomstick shoulder dislocates, some stretching.
Squat - bar x 5, 135 x 5, 185 x 3, 230 x 5/5/5/5/5 - went fairly easy. That's a good sign.
Bench Press - bar x 5, 95 x 5, 125 x 3, 150 x 5/5/5 - again, fairly easy. No shoulder pain!
Curls - Oly bar + red band/bar/band - drop sets - 16/10/8 - these are something I dreamed up a while ago. Start out with the bar and a fairly light band. Hold the bar and the band while standing on the bottom part of the band. Do as many sets as possible. Drop the band. Do as many sets as possible, put the bar down and pick up the band for as many sets as possible. Major pumpitude.
Ab wheel roll outs. This is a new addition. I picked up an ab wheel over the weekend and plan to work my long neglected abs this year.
