I tried out Cuban presses for the first time today. They look so simple and fun. Yeah, fun. They were much more challenging than I thought they would be - they're a keeper! There's a video below for reference.
Week 4 has come to a close. I will say that this was the toughest week so far. Not physically, but mentally, I had the hardest time getting through this week. I don't know what it was, but there wasn't one day this week that I wanted to do. But I did all 4 days and put in legit effort each day. At this point, I'm not willing to give up the few gains that I've made just to sit on the couch and be lazy. I was thinking I should probably start keeping track of my measurements. I can't rely on the scale to accurately reflect any progress so the tape measure is truly all I have. I think I'm more intimidated by the tape measure than the scale. I can make excuses for the scale being off - heavier winter clothes, weak battery, uneven floor, blah, blah, blah. There are no excuses for the tape. You're either getting bigger, smaller, or usually both depending on the body part. Maybe this weekend I'll bite the bullet and take some numbers. Maybe. I'm not making any promises.
