The end of 5 x 5 and thoughts on the next program!

I am not the smartest tool in the shed.  I know this but sometimes it is way more apparent like when I am already into a strength training program and I decide that I am too fat and need to cut calories!  Everyone knows that if you are doing a strength training program, you should be eating adequate calories so that you can actually get stronger!  You should NOT decided to cut your current caloric intake in half and still try to lift heavy!  Oh well!  Less fat is more important to me at this time in my life than stronger! (I really want stronger but I need to fit into my pants!)

Ok, so today was the end of my 6 week 5 x 5 and I didnt even do any 5 x 5age!  *big sigh*  I miss The Boss!  I miss having someone who challenges me and thinks for me :)   but most importantly, expected more from me than I expect from myself.  I often lament to myself about being stupid enough to make him mad :(   Im just a girl, I cant help my hormonal influxes of self whatever it was that I did to make him mad.  Hmmmmm I cant even remember what it was any more!  Blah!

So off the feeling sorry for myself and on to this post.  The end, it is what it is and I like the 5 x 5 program and will come back to it again but probably in the winter when a little more flesh is not as noticeable!

This video pretty much says it all and well, sometimes talking is just easier than typing!

I got on the scale this week and after having jumped up to 170.8# last week, I am back down to 167.2# this week.  :D :D    That makes me happy and takes away some of my disgust with myself for being such a pig!

My legs are still my biggest nemesis!  I still dont like them although they have come a long ways.  I will get them to a better place, I will, I have to!  I think I need to put lunges back in on this next program!

IMG_8869Abs, abs are abs are abs.  They are doing good and I am thankful that they are an easy body part for me!  I just have to get the extra fluff off and things will be awesome! :)

So all of this being said, I dont know exactly what I am going to be doing the next 6 weeks or what I am going to call it but I will figure something out this weekend.    Living life on the edge, I tell you! :D
