Today is my last day with the 5 lbs weights. If weather permits, I'm going to walk both hills in one sitting with the 5's one last time. Then tomorrow, my routine becomes taking the 7.5 lbs up Hill F in the morning and then Hill K in the evening. We'll see how it feels. When I first jumped from the 3 lbs. to the 5 lbs, Hill F had me wheezing and I needed a 20 second breathing break at the top. Now, like I said, 5lbs and I'm doing both hills at once without stopping.
That's the kind of progress I look for now. My waistline might not feel smaller yet and the scale might be slow to go down. But when you can feel the difference in how you carry the weights and see how it was hard and then easy, THAT really speaks to stuff happening, yeah?
