I feel like I've grown a lot all of sudden, and am starting to feel a little... awkward. My range of motion while rowing has suddenly diminished -- I can't really lean forward or back, just move my legs and arms in an out. So each row is shorter. I'm trying to focus on pulling really hard to my chest, while squeezing my shoulder blades together. No idea if this is a good idea, but I want to get as much back workout out of the rowing as possible.
Anyway, the circuit today was similar to the last, but with some weight. And an extra set. And now I am very tired and need a nap. Am consider making pizza for supper instead of the more energy-intensive meatloaf.
4 rounds:
500 m row (2:28 min, quite consistently)
9, 8, 7, 7 presses (55 lb)
14 walking lunges (30 lb, except first "tester" set - 25 lb/16 rep)
Finished with:
12 presses @ 40 lb
1000 m row (steady - 5:20 min)
No ab-specific stuff. Everything feels ab-heavy these days!
I was thrilled to feel no discomfort on the lunges. Taking time off from exercises that were hard on the pelvis has work. Of course now, I'll probably have to wait another 3 weeks to do lunges again.
Weigh-in: 154. I'm supposed to be gaining like a pound a week as the baby packs it on. There hasn't been much (if any) change in the past month, so I'm not sure what will happen. Curious.
