CrashtestDawnie's Journal, 20 October 2019

Yesterday was the 1st of 2 halloween parties this weekend. I some how managed to eat well over 3k cals 😯🤗 It’s all good. I also started my cycle today.
Today was squat day (I hit 115# 2x3!!) and my “gym crush” talked to me! Lol Not an actual crush 😅 but this girl is literally the only other female in my gym trying to gain strength not just run or there to look hot (With there legging pulled so far up their ass crack that they have to pull their leggings out of their crotch every 5 seconds 🙄 🤦‍♀️) I’ve mentioned her before. She squats Heavy but is tiny. She gave me some tips and warned me not to push the weights before I’m ready. She said she injured herself and had to take months off to recover with physical therapy. She was hesitant to critique me but I welcome it. I can’t actually see myself so it’s great to be able to get some feedback.
I told her I wanted to get up to body weight and she joked about doing cardio to drop weight 🤣🤣 I said hell no 😆 I’d rather go heavier 😜
I haven’t been getting very sore from my workouts. But I can feel my glutes whimpering right now. Deadlifts then squats 😳 alway a recipe for pain! 😁

My experience with underwear at the gym... Boy shorts roll up. Things pinch but well, work in a pinch lol. Form shaping panties can either roll or pinch and usually leave the pants a bit too loose. Anything from bikini to brief end up in the crack so may as well stick to thongs. I find it easier to go without but most don’t find that comfortable. (Lots of women picking at their pants and doing little jigs when they think nobody’s looking. Some disappear for a few minutes every so often)

😘😘😘 hang in there Keilin. We are here for you ❤️ and I always wear undies 😅 If you don’t want to wear them that is okay. Just double check to make sure that your leggings are squat proof!!

You know I Really hate squats (body weight). Like Really really hated them. They are uncomfortable and boring 😕 Adding the weight makes them hard and when something is challenging it’s more engaging. If you want to “grow” your glutes, squats are not the most effective. Weighted hip thrusts are way better and wayyyy easier. But they bore me 😅 The weighted squats work so many muscles in the body at once, they are a time saver 😁

I’m gonna pull a ‘he who shall remain nameless’ (you know who u are)... my hip thrusts don’t grow the glutes ;). Ohhh weighted. I’ll add some weights ;).

I can’t personally vouch for hip thrust but all the “fitspos” swear by them. I could get the movement just right. The bench is too high and the step is too low. I need both steps and they are usually taken so I gave up on mastering them. The hip bridge is a lot easier and doesn’t take much to increase intensity. I have a 35# resistance band I tie around my knees and then use the foam roll to prop my feet on to make it “hurt” Lololol I feel nothing until about the 20th rep and then my cheeks are Awake 😅 I’ll do 50 reps and then 3x10. I use them to activate my glutes before squats, deadlifts and bench press. I don’t need a bigger booty. Just a strong one 😉
