Hardcore Fitness Maniac Hotties for 1/14

Today was cardio and I'm on a Tracey kicks so I chose StrikeZone. Had a good workout although my oblique area and IT band were tight this morning. It was hard to do twisting moves. Need to get that stretched out later tonight. Everything else on me feels great. No more hamstring tightness or glute tightness. Those were the most painful ones I had, so now those seem to be good again.

HR STATS:
60 minutes total
5 minutes below zone
20 minutes in zone
36 minutes above zone
471 calories burned
 
Debbie-nice workout. Glad the tightness is getting better :eek: I did my broomstick stretch last night and my shoulder is VERY achey (sp?) today.

Yesterday was supersets and cardio for which I chose Amy's ASC3
SS1-box squats-5x12 52.5 (up 2.5)
rev grip incline press 5x8 30#
one leg deadlift 5x10-35#
incline rev flyes 5 x 8 -5 #

SS2-one arm clean and press 15 #kb 6x6
chest supported db row-6x6 (2) 30 #db (up 5#0
seated lateral raise 6 x 8 8#
bench leg raises

Today is HIIT. I followed up with O this week and no change from last week. I am not terribly suprised given it's TTOTM. I will say the new BC kept me from eating everything in sight this week, it was MUCH better.

My workout is done and I had to do a few things here before I could eat and get on t he computer. I did Rachel's workout B. Still took a long time getting things right even though I have read over everything. Anyway that workout took me 66 minutes, w/up went more quickly this time since I am getting to know it. I only burned 291 calories. Then I did Tracey's new Cardio Kickbox Challenge 59 minutes, 456 calories, Max Hr was 158 and I was in my zone for 25 minutes. I really do like this workout a lot. I finished off with Tracey's Yoga Solutions post run segment and foam roller and other stretching for 27 minutes. Total calories wer 830, time was long at 2 hrs and 31 minutes. I just don't want to skip the stretching. This has helped improve my knee issues a lot.
Workout B went like this :30 second rests unless otherwise noted
Upper body core stability Russian twist-3setsx10 reps 15# med ball
prone cobra- 3 sets holding for 60 seconds I held 3# dumbbells 60 sec rest
overhead squat- 3x12 reps 1 9# bar 2 15# bar
lateral raise w/ external rotation 3X12 1 at 15# dumbbells, 2 at 12#
single leg, single arm romanian deadlift-3X12 each r&L 25# kettlebell
split stance cable single arm lat pull over 3X12 Red Cathe tubing
(had to experiment for this move. I can't do it with the bowflex because it would tip. So I put my red Cathe tubing through a door attachment but made a loop knot so I could pull on only one handle. I tried my super band but it was too hard to pull. I think next time I will try either a band or using the tubing double as it was hard to get the knot out.
bulgarian split squat- I used 4 risers on the high step and 25# dumbbells
3 sets 12 reps each r&L
Slit Stance Cable Row- took experimenting again with tubing etc.. Was supposed to be 3 sets but I did 4. 1 set red Cathe tubing, w set heavy silver tubing, 1 set 1 inch suoerband (this was tough to move through)
 
Woke up with another headache this morning. UGH! But did Shock Cardio 40/20 this morning, but had all the squat thrusts movements as my shoulders weren't gonna take it. The right is still very sore from yesterday's massage. HR hit 193 this morning!:eek::eek:

Debbie
- I don't know if anything id torn in my shoulder. As long as my massage therapist can help I am not going to find out.:p Glad to hear teh tightness is better.


Theresa
- What is the new BC?


DianeSue
- From the other day: That is why the time difference on the cover is driving me nuts, because most the time I am chosing a workout on how much time I have max and don't need a extra surprise minutes.


Oh and BTW I will be doing this for leg day tomorrow...

Linda - You're not serous are you? You can really get hurt doing that. Please be very careful!!! What made you want to do that?

Diane Sue - Nice workout! You've been really busy at home lately, haven't you? I don't think you ever get a minute to yourself unless you are working out.

Theresa - Nice going with the superset workout and cardio! You are working out like an animal lately. Glad to hear the BCP is helping.
 
Linda - You're not serous are you? You can really get hurt doing that. Please be very careful!!! What made you want to do that?


Debbie
- NO, I am not serious! The fact that the trainer decided to have his client do this, coupled with the fact that the client said okay, just completely blows my mind! It's stuff like this that give trainers a bad name.
 
debbie-thanks :eek:

linda-it birth control-Yaz and it's Amazing :D also, regarding the shoulder issue; Olesya has an article about the shoulder and how the broomstick stretch helps in most cases. I think I forgot to mention to do about 2 x 10 reps and work you way up. It has been helping mine some, but it is still really crunchy. I cannot for the life of me figure out what I did to it.
p.s. that move does look like a lapse of sanity ...thanks for sharing

Nice work Roselyn and Diane Sue.
 
It has been a busy day. Now I have to pick up grandbaby in the morning after dropping off the granddaughters. I think I need to be up around 4:30 to accomplish everything.

Linda, it does me too at times. I think I will do an STS Hitt workout tomorrow instead of a metabolic workout. Then I can know how much time I am spending.

Debbie, it does seem that I am extremely busy most of the time. Often wonder how someone can be semi retired and have so much to do. Thought by now I would be working on my painting and needle work. But Fitness is first. My time to myself is in the morning when I workout most of the time.

Theresa, I am glad that the BC change is helping.
 
Linda, I notice that picture is labeled "Imminent Fail", which I would say is very appropriate. Do you think the pic is for real? I cannot imagine anyone devising such a thing. That's *more* than an accident waiting to happen, it's a near-death experience waiting to happen.

I worked out before my evening stuff, which instead of my evening class was a whole round of meetings at another school I teach at. I don't really like working out when I've got stuff still to go to, because I feel rushed. It's pretty much a necessity with an evening class, though, because I certainly don't have energy after I get home. Anyway, I did Push Pull, then the abs from Body Max 2.
