Our St. Louis Blues won the Stanley Cup last night for the first time, and I’m 2/3 of the way to my goal weight!!! Congratulations to both of us! I’m still finding eating out and/or getting together with friends to be the hardest things. It’s especially difficult to know how to log a lot of the foods at potlucks and barbecues, so I’m either just taking a little and logging something that sounds similar when I look it up, or just logging the main individual ingredients I can identify. I definitely overdid one of the arm machines June 10th at the gym (gym is so much shorter to type than the Rec-Plex every time!). My right arm is so sore right above my inner elbow, especially doing something where the bicep flexes. I knew I was pushing it too much, too, because my right arm was really aching trying to finish the third set. I could only do three reps at a time between rests, but I was determined to make it through 3 sets of 10–especially since it was just on the initial weight of 10#. The machine was the Eagle arm curl, and I’ve done 3 sets of 10 @ 10# each of the 3 previous times without it bugging me like this. And my left arm is fine. So I’m thinking it’s one of the following: the seat/arm rests were at different levels that I’d been using and this affected the angle of the curl; I had to have my right Ulnar nerve moved in one of my surgeries last August, and I aggravated this weakened area—especially since my left arm isn’t bothering me at all; the sequence of machines was different this time and I did more arm work before that machine was open; I added the Modular Tricep push down—3 sets of 10 @ 25#—and this was the last straw; or a combo of the surgery and something else. The bottom line is I need to hire a personal trainer the gym offers and go from there. You have to complete this initial 2-hour training before you can hire a trainer for future one-on-one sessions, and I’m going to end up hurting myself if I don’t get a professional’s help. It’s $90 for a 2-hour session, and the trainers are nationally certified. And since I’m no longer scared of the weight room—and I’m serious about getting healthier/in shape—I need to do this. Meanwhile, I’m stretching the right arm and doing everyday stuff, but I’m unsure what to do when we go to the gym tonight. I’m thinking I should skip the arm curl machine altogether since I can’t go lighter on the weight, or should I??? Any thoughts anyone—Erq, Diablo, Chris, Peeper, DP, or anyone else? And a huge thanks to you all for your support, encouragement, and humor; you guys are the best! 🥰🥰
