Enjoy this instructional video about doing Front Shoulder Presses on the Smith Machine.

Cardio in the morning.  Then this afternoon I will do chest and shoulders.  I have been stuck in my routine, so today I will change it up a bit.  Chest movements will be done first, but lighter.  Then I will jam out some heavy shoulders.

I am headed over to a friends house here in Eldon, Mo to watch the Super Bowl a bit later.  I will cheer for the Saints… Go Saints!  I am posting another question and answer, so be sure to check that out.  Have a great Sunday!

YEAH SAINTS!!

Football is fun and it brings people together.  I was deprived for 12 years.  Now I am back in the game and enjoying it!

I am looking forward to squats today. I keep telling myself, “Just go lighter and do more reps.” But the powerlifter in me always wants to load the bar up for a heavy single or double.

Sometimes wonder if my legs are getting small. Then I see a picture like this one with amazing powerlifter April Shumaker. I am doing just fine!

I did my am cardio. Tris and Bis workout is complete. Looking forward to squats tomorrow! I am still jamming to upbeat songs. Happy to have a three month plan!

I will be adding another page to my site.  A PERSONAL TRAINING option for you.  I have vast knowledge in weightlifting and eating programs.  I love to use Skype to talk face to face with my clients.  You will be able to find all of the details on the PERSONAL TRAINING page soon.

You do not have to wait for the page.  If you would like immediate assistance, email me for rates, becca@beccaswanson.com.

I just posted a few more videos to the Video page. Go check it out!

I feel fabulous today.  I am thankful for the challenges in my life.  Not afraid of emotion from things I have experienced, positive and negative.  My energy is placed appropriately toward the positive things in my life.  After I tend to the negative, I turn right back around to the positive.  Each day is what you make of it! You CHOOSE happiness!!

The Climb – the first time I heard this song, my cousin Christopher sang it to me.  I will never forget!

Crazy!  One minute after I woke up, my stairmaster made a beep!!  It NEVER does that on its own.  IT WAS CALLING ME!!  So I turned on my itunes and got on the stairmaster.  It was more fun than I have had in a long time all by myself.  I was listening to Miley “Party in the USA” with my “hands up” clapping and snapping, “nodding my head like Yeah” and “moving my hips like Yeah”… all while on the stairmaster.  Cardio IS fun!

I like being at my apartment in Missouri.  I can eat clean and train consistently.  I need to tighten it up over the next two weeks for a viewing by the WWE.
