running

behind again. Why I don't do these on Monday nights I will never know. Hope to get this up tomorrow, but not making any promises.

Lots of weights and one-legged squat jumps--yup those were awesome (sarcasm intended) and not to mention abs to die for.

More hopefully tomorrow!!!

Shhhhh--not so bad

Hi All,

Let's not tell Erin, but the workout last night was not so bad which after last week is a bit of a relief. I hurt because of last weeks workout until Friday!!!!!

This week after doing my warm ups we stayed in the "exercise" area versus the "weight" area. We started out with jumps with the band (Erin stood on a band while I held the ends by my shoulders and jumped up and down for 30 seconds--harder than it sounds!!!), followed by push ups, and bar thrusts with a kick. Repeat. My arms were a little jellyish then :)

We used the machines next to work my legs. I did leg extensions, wall squats with a ball toss, glute machine, mountain climbers on the Bosu (really have to remember to tuck in my shirt for those :)), Bosu jumps, and then arm band exercises (triceps, flies, and presses). Repeat.

Superwomans on the Bosu, sit ups, and then slow bicycles (those are killers!!!). Repeat. We ran out of time which happens so infrequently :) I of course got all the abs in.

Today I just walked on the treadmill, but tomorrow I hope to do some more weights.

Have a great night.

Running late

Hi All,

Running late today. Will try and post tomorrow or Thursday morning. Workout was not so bad last night. More to come.

Owwwwwwwwwww!

Hi All,

Sorry I missed last week. I just got busy doing other stuff and totally forgot :(

Last week my whole workout was on the cable/stand alone machine along with the Bosu.

This week I feel like I have been hit by a semi!!! It was more of a body building workout. We started out with what were called squat to presses (basically it is the move that body builders do in competition on TV with the lifting going into the squat, the grunt and the lift over the head). After that it was weighted squats, dead man lifts (at 50 pounds), dead man rows, and biceps. Repeat--yeah I did say repeat!!!!

Then it was back lunges, one arm rows, throw the weight up while in a squat. Repeat.

Then we did rows, hammer curls, and another lift that I can't remember the name of. Then Erin tells me I am doing the Roman sit up. This is the machine where you hang your legs down and then lift them up while hanging there. Of course you know what is coming next--Repeat.

I am in so much pain today and can barely lift my arms above my head.

This morning I went back to the gym and did not do the same workout, but did more weights and added some ab work. That might have been a little to much :)

I do have a funny story from last night. I was doing my walking lunges and noticed this woman at one of the leg machines. The reason I noticed her you wonder, she was just sitting there reading a Star Magazine. Not using the machine just reading her magazine. So I finished my way down and then turned around--she was gone. I thought "good," oh but I thought too soon--she was just on another leg machine reading her magazine. I mentioned something to Erin and she said that people do that all the time. Really, really---just get on the bike if you are going to read Star Magazine.

Okay there is my report and my extra rant for today. Enjoy your evening and hopefully write again next week.
