Ugh, burpees!

Last week seemed like burpees week! Or well, the two days that I went, we did burpees. I hate them! I don't even know if I'll ever like them!

Anyway, slowly but surely I'm getting used to overhead squats. I'm always afraid I'll drop the bar on my head. I'm stuck on 45 lbs right now. Like usual.. but maybe next go around I may add another 10 lbs?

I haven't gone in to the gym at all this week. I know, horrible me! But I'm going in tomorrow, Saturday, because it is an event to help raise the awareness of breast cancer. So I'll be suffering 3 grueling minutes of 45 lbs thrusters. It'll be worth it. I'll even have my hair in pony tails with pink tied around them. One representing my mom, the other representing my best friends mom. I'm going to push as hard as I can to get as many reps as possible in that 3 minutes. Wish me luck!

The start of it all

So I stated working out about a month ago and already feeling a difference. I joined Capitol City Strength and Conditioning in Sac and I'm happy I did! I love the place! The schedule of the workout is great and the people are awesome!

So my ultimate goal is to compete in a body building competition. I know it's a huge goal for me and it's going to be a difficult road. I'm going to have to tackle losing weight first... and a lot of it! And it may take me 5 years at least to get to even an amateur body building  competition. But it's been my goal for a while and I'm going to stick to that goal. And one thing I know for sure is that I'm in the right place and in the right hands.
