Morning Ladies -
This morning I did not feel like working out again. Don't know what is up with me! I did W/U and Body Max Upper Body followed by Butts & Guts Floorwork and added Firewalkers to the end. Since I didn't really have time for a full ab workout, I did 3 sets of jacknives with a med ball between my knees and one in my hands. Depending on how my abs feel tomorrow, I may just work them tomorrow for a full ab workout. I only burned 300 calories (lying leg work).
I'm having a hard time accepting the fact that my biceps will probably never look like I want them to due to my cervical disc injury. The radiation of my disc is C6-7 which causes forearm numbness and biceps weakness. On neurological exam (when first diagnosed), I had both of these....thus the reason I'm so weak in my biceps. I guess I should be glad that at least I lift weights and take care of myself cuz if I didn't, I'd probably have pain shooting down my entire arm with more numbness and more severe pain, as well as severe atrophy of the muscles...not just weakness! I'm disgusted with myself. (sorry for the rant - I'm having a poor me moment). It's hard to accept that I'll never reach my goals.
No yoga for me last night. I ended up watching my new Buckcherry DVD for a while and then watched General Hospital and went to bed. I will probably do Fluid Power and Dancin the Chakras tomorrow for my rest day.........at least that's what's in my head now...but it's subject to change at any time with this head of mine!!
Jen - yes, my company would. I work at a large hospital that is currently under a major downsizing. We may even go bankrupt....it's been crazy for at least a year now. We're trying to find someone to buy us...but nobody wants us!! After thinking about the fitness purchases some more, I'd still say I love my Rebounder both for using with Cathe's high impact stuff and rebounding really gets your HR up. I just wish there were more DVDs. I usually do regular, higher impact aerobics on the rebounder and follow the DVD somewhat....but with a rebounder version. I can usually tell when a DVD looks like a good one to do this with. I've also been known to use Cardio Coach with my rebounder and for the hills/intervals, I run up and down my Transfirmer slant step, and run up and down on the high step....it really works well. (almost forgot - keep your eyes peeled to the Black Phoenix Forum or site this weekend for a Lunar Update....it might be a huge one with the next Act of the Carnivale coming out....I smell Christmas present time!!!!)
Tammy - That Shiva Rea was released exclusively to www.Acaciacatalog.com for $29.99 until April, when it will be released to other distributors and be less money! So it all depends on if you're willing or able to pay that much now or wait till later.
Hi to everyone else. I've got to go get ready for work. If I missed addressing anyone from yesterday, please remind me today ....so I can go back and answer the question.
Have a good day everyone.
