    I got up this morning and did GS chest and triceps. I had a great chest day but my triceps were a weak mess today. I was failing early on sets and had to drop my weights. Weird. I hate it when that happens. I'd like to do some cardio- was going to add it on but Max woke up early. I'll try...

    Morning! I did GS chest and triceps- was having a great chest day but my triceps were a weak mess. I was failing early on stuff and had to drop my weights a bit. Annoying. I would like to do a little cardio (maybe a run) but Max woke up early. I'll do it later I think. Belinda: Enjoy...

    Wendy: So good to see you! Sorry you've been sick- I hate not being able to workout. :( As for the BF%, it's interesting, isn't it? Bev: I'm at the other hotel, not the suite. Name escapes me. :) I am flying in early, early Thursday morning- my college roommate lives in south Jersey so...

    Belinda: Nope, the plyo workouts are in Meso 3. In Meso 2 you will do tri sets for legs- holy night those were tough. But no jumping. ;)

    Klaudia: I love that feeling after a great massage. Good stuff. Kate: Yep, agree with Klaudia that LL is short(er) but very effective. Really, it's my favorite of the weight work on CTX. Quiet sofa time is a good idea- not sure Max is ready for it yet, even if I am. :eek: Angie: Oh I...

    Belinda: I liked Plyo Legs- she alternates a weighted exercise like front lunges with a plyo exercise, like plyo jacks. Time flies in the workouts which is always a plus. :) And really, if they aren't your thing, just think you only have to do one 4 times. :) Heather: It's a great check...

    Bev: About Leaner Legs, it just moves so fast! Cathe uses a 35# barbell through the whole thing so she just jumps from move to move. I try to go as heavy as I can so I pause and take slightly longer breaks. Also, it isn't chaptered so don't hit the back button. My only other warning is the...

    Bev: I agree about IMAX 2- I do try not to do it too often b/c I'm afraid I'll get sick of it and that would be tragic! Yes, I'm packing. :D I'm a planner- already have my nicest yoga pants set aside, stuff like that. I have big Ziplocks, thanks. If you have any other tips, pass 'em along...

    Morning! I just finished Leaner Legs and Core Max #3. I have to pause during LL- she moves so fast! Of course I don't use the same pound barbell for the whole wo, either. Chris: Glad everything went OK yesterday. Weird about the HR- I'm always so proud of my low resting HR but guess not for...

    Roxie: Just another note- most nutritionists and diet plans will tell you to eat a much lower % of protein- like 20-25%, or about half as many grams as your body weight. In fact, over in OD it is a pretty hot topic. You can search and find some pretty opinionated posts about it. I am like...
