Happy Friday! đ
Full disclosure: It was hard for me to feel like I was âgoing backwardsâ, to see my muscles in flex Friday pics be smaller than they once were.
For months before I was even pregnant, I was setting the stage for pregnancy by not lifting heavy, but rather lifting what I would be able to sustain during pregnancy (which in this case is 10lbs, per my doctor) and so naturally, my muscles arenât where they were.
And that was hard. As someone whoâs always progressing and never looking backwards, as much as I hate to admit it, it was hard.
But the beauty of this is muscle has memory!
This is the path I need right now for a safe pregnancy, and when Iâm able, Iâll get right back to kickinâ butt and lifting heavy – after all, Iâll have a baby to set a strong example for! đ
