I got an AWESOME WORKOUT IN! I feel like I have totally redeemed myself. I did 12 minutes of swings, 30/30, and did 35# the entire time. My forearms burned a little bit, but it's all good. I haven't had any sugar since I decried it and am feeling much better. I am going away first thing tomorrow morning, so I made sure that this morning's workout counted. Here's what I did:
12 minutes swings 30/30 w/ 35#
5 minutes TGU with 20-25#, really just focused on form, didn't care much about #
3 rounds of 20 push-ups, 10 KTE
I would have done pull ups, but my back is a bit sore from y'day so I just did a couple here and there to loosen it up a bit. This is the first time I've had DOMS in quite some time, so I'm not sure if it's good or bad. I used to get DOMS all the time when I did weight training...
Deanie, how are he IL's?
Jane, you have no idea how sad I am to hear about your dad.
DH's dad experienced much the same thing when he had a tumor in his brain: hallucinations, irritable, extremities didn't look good... My heart goes out to you.
Dan was with his dad every day to the very end, and I hope that your parents know just how special you are. It isn't easy on you, but you are an amazing daughter.
Gayle, I am afraid that I will start looking through VRBO looking for whatever I can find in driving distance now! We would be so broke because I will say "wouldn't it be fun if... it's really cheap right now" and DH will be like "OH YEAH, BABY! LET'S DO IT! WHAT'S THEIR NUMBER???!!!" and I'll get all swept away in the excitement of what was really in the beginning just a fantasy or "what if". Just like our trip this weekend, lol.
Marcy, I
LOVE Seasun Zieger! A few years ago when I was still doing step I had some questions for her on her forum and she answered and was so kind and nice and personable! I struggle with complex choreography, but because I liked
her so much I stuck it out until I got it down. I agree, her cuing is great! Have you seen her "step wheel" workouts on youtube?

WICKED!
drover, what all do you want to know about kettlebells/any specific questions? A few great sources for information are artofstrength.com and dragondoor.com. I am honestly not sure about the calorie burn because I don't track them with any device, but you definitely get a thorough workout!
Gotta run!
