I'm still learning!

as per catethegreat... Here's another blog that's been lovingly requested.  Not a lot of exciting lifting news has been happening as of recently.  RWL has been training 2 days a week and the last workout was last Thursday.  This week is the last 2 day/week... then its back to a more normal schedule of lifting 4 times a week. It will be good to get back to a regular schedule with lifting...


Big news for this week: My cast comes off tomorrow!! wahoo! a little over a month with being 'out' from lifting.  Tomorrow afternoon I should have more answers about how quickly i'll be able to start putting weight on the bar/getting serious about lifting etc.  I'm sure i wont be 100% cleared to lift with both hands tomorrow, but i'm  hopeful that there's something I'll be able to do that i couldnt before.. If nothing else I will be able to wash BOTH of my hands and put deodorant on with more ease.  it's the small victories in life, right??

I do have to admit i was/am devastated that I can no longer/am not allowed to say "i'm new".  Bill viciously reminded me of that last week when I said or did something dumb in the weight room.  yes, I knew the expiration date of "i'm new" was coming to an end, but it still stung a little LOT to be reminded... BUT don't worry, i've come up with a new slogan for 2012: I'm STILL learning.  It is reminiscent of 'im new' but sounds more mature and dignified(?) ha! i wish!  Let's be honest here.. this is just another thing i can say when I ask what a push-pull bench press is, or what the difference between a pull and a snatch is, orrrr some other fantastically impressive question I should already know the answer to.  I'm still learning.. so y'all have to be nice to me! :) Some how I think I'll manage and be okay while I'm still learning all the important things life and lifting have to offer...
