I need to vent. Sorry.


Tuesdays suck. Partially. Tuesdays are my back days, which means the ever so dreadful-bent over rows. I never feel like I'm doing these right..anyways, I went down in weight to make sure my form is correct, and come to find out, I haven't been pulling the bar high enough. Not only that, I went down in reps (-2 on each set) which frustrates me even more. Compound that with my weak grip on lat pulldowns (my grip always gives out before my back does) and I feel like I came out with an arm workout than a back workout. I didn't wake up with any soreness today which leads me to believe 1) I did my lifts wrong 2) I didn't push myself hard enough and 3) my back is another trouble spot.

To add insult to injury (or failure in this case), even with less calories I'm not dropping weight, and actually gaining insted. FRUSTRATING! I was 140.1 yesterday and 140.4 this morning. What gives?!?!

I need more sleep. 5-6 hours just isn't cutting it for me. I'm a zombie in the mornings. But I just can't seem to fit everything into the day!! And I'm still daydreaming about my fried chicken escapades this sunday. Who wants to come? :)

If anyone knows any great back/midback lifts any suggestions would be appreciated.
