After six moths for FB, using some pretty cheap run-of-the-mill weights, I finally invested in a set of those PowerBlocks, and today was my first chance to break them in. Holy *schamoly* what a difference! I was working at weight levels I thought I'd long outgrown and had had to bring it down *a lot* just to see my workout through. You'd think that would be demoralizing, but I'm surprised how excited I am about it. I feel like I'm getting serious about weight training, and my new goal is to master these to the level I *thought* I had mastered before. I can't switch out weights at nearly the pace Kelli can (moving those brackets takes some finagling), but I figure practice will help. I'm more tired than I've been in a long time, and super stoked!
New Weights, New Goal
