I finally did it! I increased my shoulder press weight to 2o lb. DBs!! I know..20lbs doesn’t sound like much to some people..but to me..it sure is!
The whole time I did the FYM workouts, I just couldn’t bring myself to increase them from the 15lbs I had been doing. It actually didn’t seem to get any easier, so I didn’t think I was ready. Until TODAY!!
Today I did my first set with the 15’s, only 8 repetitions, but what was planned. I thought to myself, “that wasn’t that hard-maybe I can try the 20’s”. So I picked up the 20’s and did 2 more sets of 8 repetitions! Granted the last 3 repetitions of the last set was a big rough, but I did it! And with great form!
I have also increased my incline press to 25lbs and rows to 25 lbs. I am slowly getting there, but honestly never thought I would be using those heavy of weights! It’s so exhilarating!
Where have you pushed YOURSELF in your fitness? Drop me a comment! Let’s all share in your accomplishments!
PS…it’s day 4 of no coffee!
