You know the drill!

I had taken a week off, last week--due to bad sleeping habits and, I'm ashamed to say, sheer laziness--so for this week, I dropped back a level in the NRoL4W phase 1 program to ease myself back in, and did two of those workouts this week (somewhat lighter weight, 2 sets of 12 for most exercises). And I swam almost a half-mile yesterday.

Two weeks ago I was talking lifting with my Mr, and I mentioned how hard it was to go very deep into a squat, and he asked me to demonstrate--and then he told me to point my toes out a little. And wow--what a difference in my squat! So much a difference that this morning, even at the lighter weight than I'd been doing, I literally could not finish my second set of 12. I made it to 10 reps. Holy cow.
