My exercise goal for July is to complete two days of arms and two days of legs each week for my strength exercises.

Week 1 (June 30-July 6):
Arms 1 COMPLETE
Arms 2 COMPLETE
Legs 1 COMPLETE
Legs 2 COMPLETE

Week 2 (July 7-July 13):
Arms 1 COMPLETE
Legs 1 COMPLETE
Arms 2 COMPLETE
Legs 2 COMPLETE

Whew, this week was awesome! I pushed myself too hard on Tuesday and was still really sore last night when I went to do strength again. So, I had to keep it "light" but when I looked back at my numbers it really wasn't that much different than my previous workout. Can't believe how much I've increased my weights and reps so far this month. Feeling strong!
