Morning, girls! :7
I slept in this morning, so I will have to do my Upper Body + workout tonight. Guess I will try not to eat for an hour beforehand.
Angie :: I do think the EXT in combination with the BOSU has given me some good strength gains in the core. I noticed the BFL for Women book has *different* recommendations for women in terms of the exercise. It advocates 30 min. of non-descript cardio as opposed to 20 min. of HIIT. I am sticking with the HIIT plan. I am starting to think it's better for us (Catheites/Xers) to follow generic/men's training programs rather than female-specific ones b/c it seems like what's advised for women is sometimes a little wussed-out. The publishers know *most* women aren't going to buy into concepts like heavy lifting, for example, b/c they fear the whole "bulking up" thing. That's my theory.
Diana :: glad the girls are doing well. You have been a rock of support for Amanda.
Hola Wendy and Laura!
Have a rockin' day, my friends!
PS...Digital Underground was a group from the 90s and I'd say "Humpty Dance" was their one-hit wonder. But it's still a good jam!
