Lift and Learn

Every so often I get a little unrealistic in the weight room.  This was the case 2 days ago.  I was doing 165lb (both arms) chest fly's along with plenty of other machines.  Yet that one machine represented about a 50lb increase over normal.  I consider myself a fairly intelligent individual but jeez... definitely a temporary lapse in judgement.  My pectoral muscles are just desolated.  I hurt in places I didn't know was possible.  I truly didn't know I had muscles at the very center of my sternum.  Yea... they're in severe pain.  I really overdid it.
 
I've been doing well in the pool, I trained at EMU again yesterday with my shiny new membership.  Did 4,100 Long Course Meters with another EMU swimmer gearing up for their college season.  I see some great swims in my future if I choose to continue this level of motivation and dedication to training!
 
I really figured I would drop under the magic 170.0lbs mark today, no dice.  I'm feeling great and I've lost 10lbs!
