I've said it before..."I want a BIG, round butt!" It scares the boys I work out with but I don't care. I'm not gettin any younger and I gotta fight to keep my booty up where it should be. Besides...I think it's funny how my guy friends are like, "Why do you want a big 'badonka-donk' butt?"...you'd think it's a repulsive site...funny how it doesn't stop people from lookin every now and then. Who knows...maybe it's not attractive...but it's MY butt so I'll keep "workin it"! I do A LOT of squatting and lunging in my quest for a great butt and I've been slackin a little lately and I can tell. MY butt still looks good, but it definitely seems a little smaller to me. When I mentioned this in the gym the other day at the end of a workout...ONE of the guys I was workin out with...one that will remain nameless (out of the goodness of my heart) IMMEDIATELY said, "Yeah! It is!". ha ha! I wanted to tease him and say, "Oh you've been checkin it out have you?!?" but I knew it would freak him out and he would take it seriously so I controlled myself.
I knew I needed to do heavy Back Squats today...so, I went up to the gym for a little "booty call" with the barbell. Ha ha! I didn't really wanna do "worksets"...I really wanted to see if I could get more on my 1 Rep Max. I got distracted on my computer and left way late, but I did a lot yesterday so I knew I wouldn't be at the gym long. I warmed up with some light squats and then when I got up to about 135lbs...I started to really take some rest in between efforts (about 5 min). I kept lookin at the window where we have all our times and numbers written in marker. I didn't care what I squatted as long as it was more than 155lbs. I was determined to erase that number and write another in its place.J bought some fractional plates so that we could have smaller jumps as we are trying to improve our "strength".
Sometimes, 5 lbs is too much, so it was nice to be able to have the option of making smaller increases towards the end. In the end, I got up to 165lbs!!! Yay! I GOT 10 LBS MORE! I know I coulda gotten at least another 2 lbs but my family was waiting on me for lunch so I closed up shop...knowing that I'll get more next time! I'm really excited that I was able to do what I went up there to do!BACK SQUAT

*By the way...as a funny side note...this picture is NOT from today. This picture is an example of what happens when you hand a camera to a GUY and let him take pictures of your "form". I laughed so hard when I got home and amongst all the pictures, there was THIS one. I don't think he was lookin at my face...do you? ;D LMAO! I love boys!
