Day 2 - Doms, Doms, Doms

I haven't worked out regularly for about 3 months. So two heavy workouts back to back wasn't something I was looking forward to but I said I was going to do it so let's crack on.

Here's what today looked like 

The exercises were better (or I was better at them). I'd not looked up what a Dumbell Preacher curl was so I just did Arnold curls instead. This set was a bit longer, with a 5 minute warm up it took 47 minutes as oppose to yesterday's which was 39. 

I'm used to DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness) - goes with the territory. Prior to this programme  I'd not been pushing myself hugely. But on this programme I'm making a conscious effort to go heavy as I can and the price to be paid is DOMS! I have not had Doms like these for a loooooonnnnng time. I normally get Doms on leg day but not chest, arms and back and not all together! 

Here's a look at one of my meals, I figured out that if you lash spices all over tofu and fry them, they're tasty so I added it to my spicy parsnip and carrot soup.



It's a sign (I hope) it's working. Speak tomorrow. Lx
