Strength Training

We pulled out the bench and weights today.  I haven't done any strength training in years, but this flab has just got to go.  So out it came!

In high school, I had a routine that I would follow.  I remember being so proud when I had defined triceps.  I named them.  If I ever get to that point again, I will probably do the same.  I figure if I make them feel important, they might stay around.

Unfortunately, since it had been so long, I really forgot everything about lifting weights so Jon and I did it together.  We did bench presses, squats, shoulder presses, deadlifts, push ups, and sit-ups.  It felt good, but I know that I will hurt tomorrow.  Worth it, though.  My goal is to wave and not have my arms wave back at me!  (Jon says enough push-ups will do the trick!)  

Today's photo is brought to you by my artsy-fartsy side.

After work, I undid all the good by going to P.F. Changs for dinner with some friends from work.  I love Chinese food.  I wish I didn't.
