:) Today's blog is just to give thanks and a much deserved shout out to my "trainer", Harley. (Well he is more than my trainer, but you guys don't need to know that) Yesterday's leg workout was BRUTAL as I always ask for legs to be and he delivered. More so than that though was that I did leg presses with the actual machine (instead of the lady version like I had been using). I loaded up 190 lbs and could have done more, but didn't. Then I was doing stiff leg dumbbell deadlifts because of my back (the bar used to hurt my back). Yesterday I decided to do regular deadlifts with the bar just to see how it would go......I worked out with the bar plus 50. Now I know this is not a lot of weight on either, but what you may not understand is I injured my back very badly last year and it caused me to lay out for quite a while. Since then I have been slightly scared to "overdo" anything with legs for fear of reinjuring my back. Yes, I know about form and such and trust me I am very careful of my form when doing legs or any other bodypart.
What I want to get across here is Harley knew about my back injury, designed my workouts around it and built my strength up in the meantime so now I can do the things I want to do.
Harley you are hands down the best trainer EVER!!
