How am I not sore?!?!

Ok, so since I've been dealing with the wonderful morning sickness between school and work, I haven't made it to the gym, just doing workouts at home.  The other day however I tried a workout (see pic below) and to my surprise after a half hour of intense muscle burn and sweating, I wasn't sore.  Usually I'll be the sorest the second day after a workout, but there has been none!!  Am I just getting amazingly strong??  hahah No.  All I can think is, that strength training with weights (my arm/back/chest workouts include weights) is the only way to go.  Just because I'm carrying around an extra 30lbs, doesn't mean that using my own weight with lunges, squats, etc., will have the same effect that weights will.  After all, I squat 50lbs at the gym and 100lbs at the leg press.  Not sure what I was thinking.  Time to get back into the gym.  Somehow, some way, I have to get back in there.  Home workouts are NOT the same.

This is the leg workout I did with no soreness to follow... I'm sure if I added weights, I'd be sore.


Can't wait for a real leg day this week!

Hope everyone has a blessed Sunday...:]
