Weekly Feature: What did you do?

[cereta]

I thought it might be fun to have a weekly post where people could comment with what strength training they did this week. It could be a fun way get ideas, cheer each other one, and help our members keep track of their own work.

I'm keeping the title completely neutral, because I want this to be as broad as possible. You can go into detail, you can talk about something new you did or an increase of some kind, or you can just report time or days or whatever makes you happy.

Comment away!

New to the comm, and thrilled to have found it.

I'll second the rec for The New Rules of Lifting for Women. I'm currently on Phase 2 of the program, and therefore this week, I did the following:

Tuesday/Saturday:

Push Press
Stepups
Dumbbell row
Static lunges
Pushups/assisted dips/triceps extensions
Plank
Wood chop

Thursday:

Deadlift
Bulgarian split squat (ow, my butt)
Underhand lat pulldown
Reverse lunge
Cuban snatch
Crunch Variety Pack
15 mins of intervals on the elliptical

Yesterday's workout was kind of disappointing. I was tired and a little fibro-achey, so couldn't push as hard as I normally would have. Still, I went, even though I was very tempted not to, and I felt much better for it afterwards.
