STS CHECK IN DISC 31

[Connie07]

I had a forced rest week last week, (vertigo) and decided to do the next 2 weeks at the gym at work, not sure I have enough wt at home, my bench is not real sturdy for heavy lifting. I'm so proud of myself I bench pressed 95 lbs today! woo hoo! A personal best for me. I was afraid to try this at home because my bench isn't too sturdy!

Disk 31 Chest and back

Just finished this workout. I certainly need to invest in a weight rack. My spotter is at work so I had to do this alone. I could have gone heavier with the bench presses, but don't know how I could have gotten the bar up to begin. So, I went as heavy as possible and did what another postee did. (2 chairs along the bench.) A bit scary, but it did the trick for a temporary solution. Oh my word! The horizontal rows about did me in. The back work is really kicking in with the heavier weight. Hope everyone had success with this one.

Whoa! Feeling the 90%!!!! I think I have now felt every single muscle in my back!
Overall, chest was harder, barely squeaked out the 6th rep; back seemed a smidgen easier, not much though. But my back is already sore & I'm feeling muscles that I had never felt before. I'm happy that I was able to do 6 reps on all exercises!

I'm so proud....

Hi everyone,
I just finished disc 31 I'm so exited, I don't have a bench or spotter, so I was having some trouble getting that bar over, but some how I did pretty good, for bench press I did 64# I wish I did have some help to get up to 70# but I did good, for flays I did 25 # and for the last two sets I forgot that I had the weight glows so I did 2 set with 27# that is pretty impressed because I remember before STS the heavy I was getting was 15#, so I'm strong or what? just kidding and for the one arm row I did 35# and for the one arm row horizontal 29# I'm so happy Almost the end of this journey and I think I will do it all over again.
Thanks Cathe for such a good work you did. I did break a good sweat my self , my heart rate was up,up,up. I was proud of my self.....
