C4W1D2

Day 2 didn't start off too well either.  My intention was to do cardio in the morning and my lifting at night to catch up, but my son was up on and off with a fever and I was up on and off with him.  Needless to say, when my alarm went off at five in the morning, I don't even remember shutting it off.

The good news is that I was able get my lifting in late tonight, finished up a little before midnight.  I started with lower body and abs.  For the first 4 weeks I will be following the routine attached, unfortunately the leg press machine was taken by someone who did a gazillion sets and I chose a leg machine sled type instead.  I chose these exercises because they are similar to what I began my journey with last year.  Part of it is to give my body a break from some of the compound movements I've done and focus a little more on the cardio as I need to focus on burning fat!  The other part is to compare strength from then and now.  I am still amazed at myself at how my self esteem still lacks even after a year with good progress and I have to be creative in seeing things that keep me motivated.  I need to remember that it's about progress not perfection!
