I’m gonna keep going 😁 I might go back tonight. Watching everyone’s terrible squat form at the gym today makes me want to practice even more 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Seriously, a bad day at the gym is better than no day at the gym. :)

Dawnie, my goodness girl, at least you are in there trying! 👏 I look forward to your postings about the gym, especially when I am sitting on my couch watching tv and eating something I'm not supposed to with my dumbbells on the floor waiting for me.
You're doing it! 👍❤

So true LZenn! And how many people don't ever push themselves, Dawnie? Just stuck in the same old routine? You're awesome!

Agree with LZenn totally - when I get my 64 year old butt it pf bed early and get to the gym, I am proud for that!

@
LZenn, agreed.
@CrashtestDawnie -- You got this, at least you are going to the gym to better yourself. Keep at it! You ROCK!!
Some quotes I like to read on days I need a little extra push.
Hope this helps :)
“Strength does not come from the physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will.” – Ghandi

Make sure your shoulders are back when attempting the chest press. We have a tendency to use those vs. the chest.

Sorry about the crummy workout and sleep! Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

Aww thanks guys ❤️❤️ Always so encouraging which I need on days like these. My set up on the bench is pretty good: hands at shoulder width, lay on traps and lats, arch, glutes tight, and feet firmly planted. My trainer friend showed me how to do it and I was benching 80#. Not sure why I can’t get up there now. I haven’t been doing overhead press or bent over rows as much since I’ve been incorporating other movements. I will increase them again. Maybe it will help.

Also I’m kinda shy so asking someone to spot me is not something I think I’m gonna be able to do any time soon 😅 If my bench wasn’t so embarrassingly low I might feel differently but yea... 65# multiple months in to this game is sad

keep going and you didn't fail. You tried, most people would have quit, but you didn't because you are a champion😀😀

Everybody has an off day or embarrassing moment in the gym. It only happens to those who are trying. Stay safe!!!
