Friday, August 12, 2011, Check-In
Aug. 12th, 2011 10:39 amHey, EED community!
Here is your daily check-in post! Hope everyone is having a great day!
If you are posting for the first time, or new to the community, please review the community's standards, below.
1. Mod (that's me!) will post a Daily Check In post, for those who prefer to note their daily activities in response to a prompt. Please only place exercise comments here.
2. All members are encouraged to post daily independent posts about their activities, if they prefer that to a prompt.
3. Please place any NON-EXERCISE comments in independent update posts and behind a cut. Some people are sensitive to discussion of diet and nutrition. That is integral to many people's exercise activities, so I want members to be able to discuss that, but for those who are here strictly to log exercise, I would like them to be able to avert their eyes.
4. Everyone is encouraged to introduce themselves, discuss their exercise goals, and post updates on their activities. "I finally made it to running a mile!" or "I kicked up into handstand today!" are updates that we all want to hear about and share! Please put long posts and entries involving diet and nutrition behind a cut, though.
5. Aside from intro posts and injury announcements, please try to include an exercise update in every post.

Date: 2011-08-12 02:50 pm (UTC)My sprained ankle is mostly better, but doesn't quite have full dorsiflexion back yet, which means I skew round slightly when I squat because one ankle bends more than the other. So I avoided heavy squats, did some shoulder presses and overhead squats, then went for ALL DEADLIFTS ALL THE TIME.
Mmmm, deadlifts. {/homer}
I worked up to a one-rep max and got a personal best; I'm not at bodyweight-and-a-half, but I can see it from where I am. *makes clutchy hands of want* Then I was so full of endorphins I set a personal time record for the elbow plank.

Unfortunaley, it seems that I left my training book in the changing room. Have to go there tomorrow, see if they have it.
