Phase 2, Week 3 begins!

Day 43
I really thought I was getting up this morning at 5:30 am until my alarm actually went off.  After only 5.5 hours of sleep my body was not in the mood to shiver my way to the fitness center and then blankly stare at the screen for the first 10 minutes.  "Goodbye Luke and goodnight again!"  My workout was at 4:30 pm and the fitness center was pretty busy.  I ran into Ryan there - he decided to start his program over since he wasn't doing 6 workouts per week and did Day 1 today.  I wish I could go back to the Phase 1 workouts - they seemed hard while doing the exercises, but looking back they were easier than Phase 2.

The worst part of the day was when I got all the way to the fitness center after rushing out of our place and then realizing that I forgot the laptop.  I ran back home and back to the fitness center and considered that my warm up.  When I first started, a girl was using the 5 lb dumbbells and 7.5 lb dumbbells, which was annoying.  I really didn't want to ask her to share because I hate when people do that.  However, I didn't feel too bad because she was using these light dumbbells for chest and back exercises.  Most people need at least 10 lbs to make those reps worthwhile, right?  After standing there with the video paused I got impatient and asked her if I could borrow the 5 lb dumbbells.

The best part of the workout involved LyeLyeGuy.  Not only was he there, but he was singing along to his iPod in the crowded fitness center as if he was by himself.

I feel like my triceps are getting too big - I think my arms look like unbalanced overstuffed sausages.
