Crazy Strong and Loving It 4/24

[orphylea]

Morning my friends! I did STS Disc 12 (Legs) this morning- great workout. I burned 477 calories. I always like when Cathe does floor work with a stability ball- good stuff. One legged hamstring roll ins are hard but they work!

Not much going on today- hopefully Belinda is continuing to improve.

Wendy: I had to laugh about what you said with your legs and crossing them in shorts. I can so identify, especially in the last few years when I was pregnant so much. But this is the year to not fear it! Hooray for us!

Nora: Yes, I have Strike Zone- hope you like it. Her combos are not tough to learn at all and seem easily modified. There is one section with spider webs in there- killer upper body. Let me know what you think!

Morning girls! Today I did Mindy Mylreas All Systems GO! I haven't done this one before - just previewed it. ALOT of plyo/jumping moves - My legs were/are absolutely fried! I had to cut out the last strength/cardio segment and skip to the abs and stretch though because I ran out of time. sigh.

Today is a sunny day all around. Its going to be 80 outside today (and I'm stuck at work), however our boss is not here today!

We are making more progress with our basement project....hopefully by next weekend....

Good Morning,

Tonite is Burn Circuit 3 and since it is a short one I want to do Recharge since I didn't get to do it the other nite, but I really need some sleep so I am hoping it helps.

Today was Legs and I had a great workout. Wasn't looking forward to the workout but I got it done and I feel great now!

10 minute warmup on treadmill.

8 sets - 20 seconds on/10 seconds off each exercise.

2 minute rest between each exercise.

LEGS
Front Squats w/Heels Elevated:
45# - 8 sets/9-8 reps
***Wow, my HR sky-rocketed here. This exercise is brutal. I like it better with heels elevated because it hits the quads more.

Alternate Front Lunges:
15's - 8 sets/4 reps each leg (up 3#)
***HR up high here too.

Leg Extensions:
55# - 8 sets/12-11 reps (up 5#)
***By the last three sets my quads were burning.

Hamstring Press on HS w/4 Risers:
15# - 8 sets/16-15 reps (up 3#)
***Glutes really get a good burn with this exercise. So do the hamstrings.

Firewalkers:
Purple Band - 8 sets/12 reps
***LOVE this exercise. Really feel it in the outer thighs.

Barbell Calf Raises:
65# - 8 sets/17-16 reps (up 5#)
***Toes forward, in and out alternating.

HR STATS:
58 minutes total
5 minutes below zone
47 minutes in zone
8 minutes above zone
451 calories burned

That is all....

Checking in -

Came home from work and squeezed in Slo/Mo Back and Shoulders. I think it's supposed to take about 50 min, but I did double arm stuff where she did single arm. I wanted to finish before the kids were dropped off from the bus.
Nice day here - and it's supposed to get better. Too bad I'm working the next 3 days!
Have a great day!

I know I'm late, but had a busy day today. FUN busy! It was so beautiful out here!

I did DISC 30, SHoulders, Tri's and Bi's. I went up on my weights, because last week seemed not as hard as it should have been and i didn't get any DOMS. I'm sure I will from today! The backs of my shoulders have felt it all day!

My legs are STILL sore from PLYO on Wednesday.. I ended up doing the nonball stretch from TBS, felt good.!!

After supper , the whole family went for a bike ride to the park. It was soo onice, and I just love riding my new bike!! It's so fun!!

Good night!

brief rest

Amy Bento's - In the Ring= 75 min
I love kickboxing and love the med ball so you know I enjoyed this workout and so did my abs.

That's it for me today, I've had to try to reduce impact to my knees as best I can without stopping workingout. So, that's why I only did a brief run today, I hate that it was a short one but oh well. Gotta modify for injuries so I am.

Have a great weekend! Seeya at tomorrow's check in.

Hugs,

Nora
