:+ :p :eek: How do ya'll like that title?

Hey ladies!! Hope you all are well. It seems we've gotten some warmer weather-finally!!

I had my neuroma injected yesterday, so no workouts :( I did do some chin-ups this evening though }(

Weighted Chins 4/23:
2 sets of 5 with 3.3# added
2 sets of 5 with 4.25# added
2 sets of 4 with 4.25# added
Then did 3 sets of 4 wide grip pullups with the lightest band.

Next week I think I am gonna do a set of chin-ups to failure and see where I am. Hopefully I've increased my total!!

Briee, Joanne and Marcy are you all doing any pull-ups or chin-ups???

Oooooo...I love the title!!!! Very descriptive.

I just came up from doing PP - I am really enjoying the SS and PP during this fast. It's doable on very little calories.

Someone saw me today and said "man you must really be hitting the workouts hard". I'm now convinced that diet works wonders in the area of weight loss, much more so than the workouts unfortunately. BUT obviously workouts are VERY important. Really, I'm feeling very good and am finishing day 11.

I think I will do pull ups tomorrow.

CONGATULATIONS TO YOUR NEICE!!! Give her high 5's!!!:7 :7

This morning I did 4ds double cardio premix and pullups. I was a bit disappointed in my performance. Had a little back slide. I blame it on the 2 beers I drank last night :eek: And they weren't light beers either x(

I did 5,5,4.5,4,3,3&3 standard pullups then I did 5,4,&4 wide grips with the lightest band.

I am off to the shower and then off to lunch with DS!

Just got done doing GS chest & tri. First I did a chin.

Briee-have you been biking?

Marcy-are you all moved in?

Joanne
 
Oh GS C&T that's a goodie. All of those pushups :eek: It's good to hear from ya Joanne!!

Had a nice lunch and I am ready for a nap. I don't think I'll be going on the RT this year :( Just too much going on right now. Hopefully there will be one next year!

Marcy, hope you are surviving the move!!

Hi Chinners:7

I hope your foot is doing much better Catherine!!! Awesome chin/pull numbers!!

NO...I haven't been biking yet, Joanne. It's freezing here and there were SNOW FLURRIES TODAY. I think I'm moving. What is it with all this snow. Thankfully nothing stayed, but I'm betting yours is still around Joanne???

I'm going to go down to do some workout right now - don't know what yet.

Marcy....are ya still movin girl??

Briee
 
Briee- snow :eek: OMG, I am so glad to live a bit further south. Hope you have a good workout!!

Foot is doing ok**Crosses Fingers** I did heavy lower body earlier today and I am paying for it already :eek: That's the first heavy lower body w/o I've done in 2 weeks. DOMS are setting in. I guess I should have gone little ligther,.....Nay ){

Marcy, I hope you are doing ok!!

Joanne, I take it you are still having some colder weather??

I am still on the fence about trying for the August RT. I really want to go, but have so much going on x(

OK, where is everyone? I want everybody front and center reporting on chinups or pullups :+

I am on vacation this week. DH and I have been working hard on getting the workout room complete! Just got the power rack put together. I think there will be a learning curve to squatting in the cage. There is a pullup bar to. It's different and has the ability to do neutral grip, but no close grip. Darn things were designed for a man. I still have my power tower for now. May get rid of it once I get used to the other :D

This morning I did All Step from CTX(step only). I also did 5 sets of 5 pullups!! That's my best on pullups!!! I did them on my old bar. This week I am giving wt work a bit of a rest. I should focus some on ab work-well, maybe.

OK you all get to work and report back ASAP!!

Oh...now that is just too cool Catherine. I'M SO PROUD OF YOU. What an awesome picture!!!

I did a set of 5 pulls and 5 chins this morning along with PH, but had to run to the chiropractor by 8 am so I didn't get to finish the chin/pulls x( x( x( x( .

My weight is about 104 pounds now and Pulls keep getting easier. I began to eat a bit of soup today with some fruit - so I'll be easing back into the eating thing. I think I'm going to stay pretty meat and dairy free again.

You guys keep doing those chins and posting pictures!!!!

Briee (off to check out Catherines picture trail)
 
Hi Chinsters!

I'm signing on from the library since my computer is all packed up. The moving truck left about 2 hours ago. Our closing in Ny is on Friday and in GA on Monday. I have a job interview lined up for next week but they packed my shoes so I have to go buy a pair of pumps before my interview and a bed, a washer and dryer, etc., etc.

Glad you are all doing well. I think I did about one chinup in 2 weeks. Besides all the stress of moving, my dad passed away two weeks ago so things have been really awful.

Catherine - Your workout room looks great. You gave me some good ideas for mine. Eventually I'll get a TV for the wall but for right now it'll be the TV on the stand. I hope the puzzle mats are working for you.

Briee - I'm so jealous -- 104 pounds!!:) That's what I was in high school. My diet's been totally crazy and completely out of whack the last couple of weeks. Lots of eating out and my weight's been fluctuating all over the place. I guess I was getting a little bit of exercise hauling boxes around and I did go line dancing last Thursday.

Hi Joanne!

I'll try and check in again as soon as I can. You know the first thing I have to do is get out my Door Gym and see which door frame it fits in!

Happy Chinnin'!

Marcy
 
Hey Marcy!! It's so good to hear from you!! Oh darn, you have to go shoe shopping ;)

I am actually reading your post as I type. (((((HUGS)))) I am so sorry about your dad. I will say some prayers for you & your family!!

I love my w/o room and so far the puzzle mats are working out ok. I've been taking it easy this week since my injection last week.

Take care girl!!
