No sweets - June 3 - 9

[Rose11]

The GS Series is one of those that should deserve its own category: uber advanced. I was sooooo excited yesterday though. I found out a way to finish all the drop sets of push-ups on my toes. I hit pause after completing a set and waited about 10 secs or so then hit play and stretched along with Cathe before going on to the next set. In all, I say I was resting about 15 secs or so before starting the next set of push-ups. Surprisingly this little trick worked.

I also have to say that every time I do LIC I love it even more. I just can't find anything wrong with that workout. I love the choreography, the intensity, and the music is great! I've never done LIC as is; I only do the cardio premix. I didn't even know it had abs so I discovered the ab section weeks ago and now I *really* love LIC.

Today is my rest day and I'm going to see Bon Jovi tomorrow :D which means yet another rest day.

Catherine - a year ago a water line broke *inside* my house. :o I had so much water inside that my neighbors had to come help me clean. Yikes I lost books and tons of things. Things like that happen sometimes, but don't worry it'll be ok in a couple of days.

Affirm - are you done with school or what?! You really deserve that vacation!

Rose, I was so thankful that it was outside!! I can only imagine the mess inside :o

Ditto on your pause trick for GS pushups! I have been doing that for ever and it works well for me.

Have fun at Bon Jovi!!!

Waving to Affirm!!! Hopes she gets a reprieve soon!!

Fitfairy, I hope today was a better day for you. It is rough when several bad things seem to happen on the same day.

I have one more week of school. I am definitely looking forward to it.

Oh definately was a better day!! Water is fixed. Life is good ;)
Eating has been on track the last few days. I did legs today. Followed S&H routine with some changes. I did my own count for tempo and did RDLs instead of plie squats. I did 55# squats, 55# lunges and 55# RDL x1 then upped to 60# for the last two sets, calf raises was 23.75# My hammies are screaming!! I also did chinups 6,5,4,4,2- that's my first time doing 6 in one set :o :o

Hey ladies. Like I said, today it was going to be my second rest day in a row. Oh my gosh I'm going to see Bon Jovi in a couple of hours and just now it's hitting me and I'm so excited! The local radio station that's sponsoring the concert is playing Bon Jovi all afternoon and I'm listening to it on my little radio at work lol! I hope I have fun and I'll post tomorrow.

Affirm - One more week! Yay! You're almost done.

Catherine - I'm sooooo glad your water problem is fixed. We take things like that for granted sometimes and then when we lose them for a couple of days we go crazy. As usual you are very strong. I wish I can lift as heavy. I'm working on it though.

Take care ladies. The concert's at 8pm! Woo hoo!

Rose, I hope you have a great time at the concert!! Are you wearing your halter??

Affirm, I hope your last week goes by quickly and uneventful!!

Still eating good. 25 mins of step this morning and just pooped out. I don't know if it was too early(7am), the heat or if I was still tired from last nights workout-legs (which was at 5:30 PM) I then took a almost 2 hour nap this afternoon. Who knows??

Will try cardio again tomorrow and B&Gs on Sunday
