Because HOLY COW am I sore today…. that’s why. It was the calf exercises that did it. I can tell
because it’s my calves that are screaming. It’s partly my fault – as opposed to the pain being
a function of the program. My fault because I misread the weight and actually made it 10 lbs higher
than it should have been. I completed the set and checked the weight and… well duh. I was happy
to rediscover that, even though the emphasis was on lower body yesterday, there were still plenty of
upper-body exercises to be done — just at lower weights. As you might have guessed, I’m still
really enjoying going to the gym. I really am. I love that we’re going on Monday evenings, too — it’s
a nice way to cast off whatever funk the Monday workday may have brought and end the day feeling as
if I’ve done something good for myself.
