LFT, Day 8

Last night Chris and I went to the gym and did Day 8 of Jamie Eason's LiveFit Trainer (LFT). We started with a 15 minute warmup on the treadmill (one mile) and then just went for it. I had many improvements from last week - more push-ups done regular style instead of on my knees; heavier weights used for some of the moves. Here is a comparison:

Wide Push ups
Week1: 12 reg, 6 reg/6 knees, 12 knees
Week 2: 12 reg, 12 reg, 6 reg/6 knees
Dumbbell Bench Press
Week 1/2: 20lbs - 12, 12, 12
Last week I needed Chris to help me with these, this week I did them all by myself; however still pretty shaky so I didn't risk going up to 25lbs.
Flat Bench Flyes
Week 1: 10lbs -12; 12lbs - 12, 12
Week 2: 12lbs - 12, 12, 12
Those last couple of reps on the third set were tough!
Narrow Push-ups = OH MY!
Week 1: 12 knees, 12 knees, 10 knees (all very pathetic)
Week 2: 1 reg/11knees, 2 reg/10knees, 2 reg/10knees (still pretty pathetic, but better)
These make me want to cry every time I see them listed. I feel so weak doing them in the gym in front of everyone (not that they're really paying any attention to me).
Standing Dumbbell Tricep Extension
Week 1: 15lbs - 12, 12, 12
Week 2: 17.5lbs - 12, 12, 12
I couldn't find the 15's so I just went up. I thought about going to 20lbs for the last set, but didn't...thankfully, cause they were tough to push out.
Triceps Pushdown
Week 1: #2-12, #3-12, 12
Week 2: #3-12, #4-3 (ha, ha, ha), #3+5lbs - 8
Jumped from 30 to 40 lbs and had to laugh at myself, went back down by 5lbs and it went better - hard, but better.
I was pretty impressed with myself last night! I'm also very glad that I lug my notebook with me so I can see the changes I make - I have no idea how people remember from week to week without writing it down! Last week I was so sore after this workout, today I feel great!!! I finished the workout with another 15 minutes on the treadmill (1 mile), so I got 2 miles towards my POTM challenge - yea!
And guess what was sitting on my porch when we got home from our workout!!!

Yep! Bodybuilding.com box full of the LFT supplements!! I got a free t-shirt and gym bag too. Crappy photo quality is due to my cell (my camera broke at the Turkey Trot 10k...new one is on the way though). I'm super excited to start trying them! I've got 3 more multi-vitamins in my jar at home...debating on just finishing those off or starting with these; I'll probably just finish those off. Won't hurt anything - they're both pretty similar. Chris started taking them this morning.
I was cooking up a storm yesterday! I've got a weeks worth of chicken cooked and prepped, some sweet potatoes cooked, and the turkey meatballs (which Chris has devoured so I need to make another batch....seriously serving size for a guy - 4, serving size for me - 2...it makes 12). I think I'll have to make another batch of quinoa too. Makes for great last minute meal options. Tonight it'll probably be pizza because my little girl is turns 4 today and it's her favorite food!

I'm pretty sure she thought the Bodybuilding.com box was a present! Special Delivery!!!!
