Running on Caffeine and Hope

This has been sort of my motto this last week.
I have been distracted by so many things: S-C softball, Rec softball, school, family... just a lot going on right now. So I've just been hoping for the best every day haha 

Needless to say, this last week I have had a couple big accomplishments:
1. I lost this week, for a total loss of 28.8lbs (and I'm below 220)
2. I went up in weight on the bicep track in body pump (thanks, Kim)
3. I decided to max out on squats just out of curiosity ... I was able to get 225# up for a great one-rep-max. I tried 235, but it just wasn't going anywhere. 

So that means that my squat is more than what I weigh, which is a huge accomplishment.
AND it means that I am able to back-squat heavier than high school.
My first non-scale goal was to be able to squat 200.
Done.

After a 4:00 lifting session ^^ 

My other favorite thing lately has been looking at my traps/shoulders lol
That's not weird at all, right?
I just like how I am becoming more defined and cutting weight.

Check 'em out! 

This week is going to be rough. I've already told my mentor that I know this week will be challenging.

Have a great week!!
