I am so excited to have some fitness goals again and can't wait to get started. I had planned on waiting two weeks til my kids went back to school and then start NROLW. But I realized it won't kill them to go to the gym with me a few times. So I'm starting tomorrow! I will be out of my comfort zone because I've never done barbell squats or deadlifts, etc, but that's ok.
Another goal for me is posture correction. My shoulders roll in. I've been pretty faithful for the last 3 months about foam rolling my back, but I need more chest stretching and general awareness of my posture. So in terms of a quantifiable goal, I will add in some shoulder and chest stretching during my 3 workouts, plus 2 more times a week on non-lifting days. Ultimately, I need to quit sleeping on my left side. That left shoulder rolls forwards more and I think it's from sleeping on it. However, short of sewing tennis balls in the left side of my jammies, I don't know how to break the habit and become a back sleeper. My posture definitely needs work or I will end up a hunched over old lady!
Also, need to up my water goal to 5L. I woke up early this morning, feeling very parched. I'll never tracked water intake, so I'm just guessing at this point how much I need.
