2nd training with Anthony. He’s very attentive so he found many broken forms for me to correct. Let’s hope that will help with my left shoulder pain.

Jo came over and helped Anthony. All of a sudden the workout gets tougher!! Jo is really good but boy he is one tough coach. My arms are pumped for the weekend but I’m alone this weekend to next week lmao
Notes to me-self
It was a great week training with a different trainer.
The different training method and intensity make a difference in how your muscles feel.
Looking for the next week but my muscle pains aren’t going away yet!!!
