What is happening to me?

Leg day was yesterday
Actually it was going to be my day off but son begged for me to take him to the gym so off we went.
I decided just to do some cardio but the gym was pretty empty (SWEET!) so I decided I might as well take advantage and get some lifting in.
Here's how I felt afterwards

But I feel great now!
I love leg day.
I wish I did legs more then twice a week.
Maybe eventually I will add and extra leg day in but right now I'm in a good routine and don't want to mess anything up.
I do want to add dead lifts to my workout but for some reason I am afraid of them.
I don't feel like I know how to do them right.
I just need to ask someone at the gym for help. I'm such a sissy, arrrgh maybe this week.

I noticed a weird change in myself this weekend.
I have been excited to workout.
I can't wait till the nursery opens so I can head to the gym to drop my kids off.
What is happening to me?
I have never been excited to workout.
When all I did was run it was a constant struggle.
I had days where I really enjoyed running and couldn't wait to go but it wasn't the way I feel about lifting.
It's fun, addicting, and I feel amazing when I done.

I love having a workout high!!!!!

With running you constantly have to add more mileage to get anything out it.
I remember when 6 miles was nothing for me, but I really remember is that gut retching feeling that if I didn't run 6 or more miles I wasn't getting anything out of my workout.
It's not that way with lifting.
Throw on some more weight and BAM your not gonna be able to walk the next day.
Like I've said before I'm so glad I decided to pick up a set of weights.  Definitely one of my better decisions in life!
And better late then never!
Here's how I feel about he gym now

Hope y'all have a great week!

Peace, 
Shelby
