HARDCORE FITNESS MANIAC HOTTIES TGIF !!!!!!!!!!

[buttercup78]

GM LADIES-
Yesterday was AOS Newport KB workout. Brutal. Workout was 44 min and I burned 680 calories. My low back is a little sore, so I am not sure if that is normal or I may be swinging wrong. Also, my back was hurting yesterday from work. I have terrible ergonomics and am trying to work on them.

No workout on the agenda for today. Today is DH birthday and we are going out to dinner. Tomorrow I need to get a circuit in, but may move it to Sunday.

TTYL-
Theresa

Theresa - Nice calorie burn with Newport. I love that workout. Be careful with your back! Enjoy DH's birthday and your dinner out!


Today was TT again today, doing the workout from Monday again (workout A).

Today was Meso 3, Week 2, Disc 28, Chest & Back. I had an excellent workout. With the first push/pull sets I took lesser rest periods then cathe because I felt it was too much. But as the workout progressed I took the rest Cathe took. I felt VERY strong today and I have no doubt that I will bench 100# next week!

Warmup:
Flat Bench Barbell Press - 65#/12 reps
Flat Bench Barbell Press - 70#/12 reps


Flat Bench Barbell Press - 95#/7 reps
Barbell Rows - 80#/8 reps
***Same with Sets 1 & 2. Went to 81# for Rows with sets 3 & 4 with 7 reps. Less rest here then what Cathe did.

Flat Bench Chest Flyes - 37's/7 reps
One Arm Row - 42#/7 reps
***Same for all 4 sets.

Incline Barbell Bench Press - 90#/7 reps
Barbell Deadlifts - 77#/7 reps
***Same for all 4 sets. Really started getting sweaty at this point.

Incline Chest Flyes - 37's/7 reps
One Arm Horizontal Row - 37#/7 reps
***Could go heavier with the flyes but my shoulder was starting to feel it, plus it was hard to get this weight in starting position because I was so fatigued.

I was scared to push 95# due to my right shoulder but I did it slow and in control and didn't feel a bit of pain. I'm happy about this. Did the same with the flyes and hardly had any clicking.

Sonya - I need to google zercher squats, never heard of them before. Sounds cool!!!

Theresa - Watch that back girl. I'm sure it's just sore, though, like in DOMS. But maybe take some Aleve today and rest it.

Linda - 105# bench! Wow girl! You have really gotten strong and your workouts are smokin'! Nice job. Just a word of caution from someone who knows: be careful with the shoulders and the heavy benching. This is how I injured my shoulder - my form was off. I just don't want you doing to yourself what I did to myself. Nice workout girl! You just keep getting better and better!!!

Hi to everyone to come! I will not be on anymore today. DH and I are going out to lunch and do some shopping. So you all have kick ass workouts and have a great day!

I got the girls all off to school this morning. I still have their overnight stuff here. Takes extra time getting the children up and ready for school. I forget that till I have the grandchildren over. I will be working out and almost forget I need to go wake someone up.LOL Today I did Kimberly Spreen's Cardio combat Surge I never felt like I was working terribly hard. I did not do the fusion stretch so the workout was 73 minutes and I burned 403 calories. I then did Amy's Step Challenge 3 abs #1 and #2. When I returned from dropping off the girls I did Step Challenge 3 w/up and combo 1 to warm up a little(another 110 calories) so I could do some Yoga. I ended up choosing Yoga Shatki Basic Flow which I probably did not need the w/up for. Total calories burned today was 722 55% fat and max hr was only 148. I am hoping to do Extremely Ripped 1000 tomorrow. Hopefully I have the energy. I am trying to fight off a cold.

Debbie, enjoy your time with your husband today. I hope you reach your goal of 100# I forgot to answer your question yesterday about working abs everyday. I try to work them at least 3 days but generally I work them 4-5. Not all days are done with weights.

Theresa, I hope it is just some soreness from the workout. I have some body alignment issues and will often have ons side of my low back hurt and the opposite side has hamstring tightness issues. I try to do lots of flexibility stuff which seems to help. You got a great workout out of Newport. I like all of the core work in that one. Enjoy your dinner this evening. I think I forgot to answer you on the inclines. I go as high as level 12 which is the Max I can go on my treadmill.

Linda, way to go on the 105# bench press.

 

[buttercup78]

Debbie and Linda-nice weight work. I am always in awe of the pounds each of you can lift

Diane Sue-sorry you are still fighting off that cold. In reference to the hr, two weeks ago I couldn't burn calories to save my life, and now it's back to normal. I didn't feel like I ever exerted that mcuh effort but I know I was. It was very odd. Jari should fix that tomorrow though, good luck

I think it's just soreness, it's kind of low to mid back. Where do you ladies get sore after KB work? Mine seems to be back and inner thighs. I hope I am doing the movement right.

Linda - 105# bench! Wow girl! You have really gotten strong and your workouts are smokin'! Nice job. Just a word of caution from someone who knows: be careful with the shoulders and the heavy benching. This is how I injured my shoulder - my form was off. I just don't want you doing to yourself what I did to myself. Nice workout girl! You just keep getting better and better!!!

Debbie - Nice weights on on Meso 3, especially those flyes! And don't worry about the heavy bench and shoulders, I am well aware of the connection there, as I have screwed up my shoulder before on the bench press. Actually, I checked my notes and this is the rotation I have my personal best on for bench. It was 110#. Considering the 105# seemed easy, I am going to try it again, but I promise to be careful!

I am hoping to do Extremely Ripped 1000 tomorrow. Hopefully I have the energy. I am trying to fight off a cold.

DianeSue - Hope you beat the cold and kick butt in Extremely Ripped tomorrow!

Debbie and Linda-nice weight work. I am always in awe of the pounds each of you can lift
Theresa

Theresa - Thanks! I I usually feel KB in my lats and sometimes in my low back. Especially with those snatch challenges!

 

[SheWolf]

Theresa - I forgot! Do you realize that in the nutrition software program we have you can copy and paste your food log from one day to the next? I just figure it out and I have to say it makes me one happy camper, as I tend to eat basically the same thing most days. So now I just copy it over and make the minor changes to it for the day.

 

[buttercup78]

Linda-I did not know that and that sure would save time since I tend to eat the same too

 

[WD]

Theresa, I feel it in my low back and legs. Sometimes though I feel it on the inside of my knees so I have to really watch the form. It is a lot of repetition too. Oh, and it bothers my elbows at times when I do a lot of snatches and high pulls.

I am feeling somewhat better this evening. DD came over and gave me my flu shot after checking out how I was feeling first. She bought over some fresh vegetables from her garden. Some really nice red peppers. I need to do some cooking so I have something quick to eat. Had squash and leftover roast for dinner.
