It is always such a good feeling when you are getting back in shape isn't it? I started back a month ago and am slowly making progress. I am staying away from goals though. I want to reinforce a good routine. I know a good system leads to more than just short term goals. Good luck in your journey!!

Thanks! I'm more of a goal oriented person. I use small short term goals to push myself to get to where I want to be while making it fun and enjoyable.
I did that too until I read Scott Adams "How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big: Kind of the Story of My Life." It is definitely a suggested read. Easy to get through too!
I took a quick skim through the reviews looks like a good book. I definitely agree to have a system but I still like to pair short term goals with that system so you have something to strive for. I document everything I do so I can improve on it and push myself to atleast improve on the last work out. It's not for everyone but I don't mind suffering a little bit if it gets me closer to my goal.
No pain no gain right? My legs day put my lower back into all sorts of fun for the last two days :-) Gotta love dead lifts.
deads and squats. The foundation of your core and body!
Such is the truth. I gave my lower back one more day and just did upper body today. Standing military press is my new / old favorite. A little core and some solid shoulders. I was a cheerleader in highschool so it brings me back to lifting the girls.
