Good morning! I'm officially into my rest week. I miss my workouts already. :( Guess i'll just have to workout vicariously through you gals this week. ;) My race on Saturday went spendidly! It was sooo much fun! Much better than the Warrior Dash I did in August (IMHO). There weren't near...

Good morning! My ankle is better, but still not 100%. I also strained both of my hip flexors two weeks ago and both are still bothering me tremendously. I feel like i'm starting to fall apart! I know I just took one not that long ago, but after Saturday's race i'm taking another rest week. I...

Good morning. :confused: This morning's scheduled workout was Drill Max: Cardio and Upper Body premix. I did about 2/3 of the workout before I rolled my ankle hard. :mad::mad::mad: Not cool, ankle, not cool. It's still hurting and very tender. I iced it for about 10 minutes this morning and...

Wendy: What type/brand gloves did you wear during your Spartan Race? I'm thinking about wearing gloves during my upcoming 5K mud run. I struggled a few times during the Warrior Dash to maintain my grip because my hands were so wet and muddy. I thought gloves might help this time around.

Hi!! My car is in the shop, so I took the day off. It's nice to have a quiet day at home. Saturday was my rest day, Sunday I did Combat 60 + 4 side planks (75 secs each), and today I did Butts and Guts. I somehow got talked into doing another 5K mud run and it's THIS Saturday. What the heck...

Hi girls!! I haven't actually worked out (yet) today, but I still wanted to pop in and say hello. I'm going to try Crossfit again today. I think my sister ratted me out to the instructor (just that I was embarrassed and upset after Tuesday's disaster), because the instructor texted me last...

Good morning! Sorry i've been posting sporadically lately. Life has been crazy busy. I spent most of yesterday driving around the state for work and didn't get home until 10:00 pm. And i'm leaving today after work for a 2 day trip with family, so i've been trying to get ready for that. No...

Hello. :) Well, I am DEFINITELY feeling better and boy am I glad. :D :D :D It feels great to be back on my feet. I celebrated my recovery yesterday with Athletic Training. After TTM, the beginning step portion of AT didn't seem as hard, but man the step/legs/shoulder segment still gets me...

Hi gals. Well, my crappy workout week continues. I woke up this morning with a headache, sore throat, and sinus pressure. Needless to say I was NOT feeling up to an intense workout. Instead of skipping my workout all together, I decided to do my Yogini (Ellen Barrett) workout. I always enjoy...
