Superset C

Linda, nice job esp on those squats!!! Yard sale eh? I detest yardsales LOL!! I hope it is worth it for you!!
These massages are doing wonderful things for my back. I have another scheduled in 3 weeks. I will make sure I get one at least once a month. But will do them more frequently if I need to

Legs are done!! Pretty pleased with the w/o:
Squats:
Warmup sets: 45# 6 reps, 75# 6 reps
Working sets: 85# 12 reps, 87.5# 2 sets of 10
(85# felt a little to easy, so bumped up 2.5#, but reduced reps)
RDLS:
70# 3 sets of 10
(lightened up on these and did them off a 6" step to go deeper- really felt it)
Pistols:
3 sets of 12
(still holding on for these, but really trying to focus on the legs doing the work)
Followed that up with GSL calf raises and floor work I really am starting to like this floor routine. It's not like other floor routines with endless sets of donkey kicks and inner and outter thigh work. It really gets in there good!!

Morning Catheirne!
Boy im up early today.. had to drive the bf to the airport.. its so beautiful out I couldn't bear to go back to sleep
It was pouring rain yesterday so I did my back workout at home.. no pullups for me :'-(
Instead I did a bunch of things that I dont feel are very effective for me.. BB rows, db rows etc..
Im hoping to get some cardio in today.. I took yesterday as my OFF day as I hurt my HS real bad (I guess) durring fridays training and the pain on them was delayed to just yesterday.. not sure ill be doing anything today as they do not feel ANY better.. prolly go to CVS n' get some epsoms and take some advil or something hee
Have a good workout!

Morning Chinsters,
Okay the dreaded yard sale is over. Was not as successful as I would of hope, but at the end we donated all the stuff to breast cancer so it was all gone!!! and I didn't bring anything back home!. Saturday I didn't workout because it was just cardio and I thought I'd be running around at the yard sale enough for the day, besides I wanted the extra sleep (still got up at 5:30am, but at least it wasn't 4:30). Today was upper body and it went like this:
(Still had to keep the weights down due to the shoulder)
Superset A
DB Chest Press
6/6/6 - 30's *** count was up 8 & down 8 -brutal***
Rear Delt Raises
10/10/10 - 5's***count was up 6 & down 6 - shoulders were on fire****
Superset B
One Arm Row
6/6/6 - 52's
DB Floor Press
8/8/8 - 35's ***count was up 4, hold 2, down 4 - found that if you come to a complete rest after each rep exercise is very hard because of having to restart the movement***
Superset C
DB Tricep Ext.
8/8/8 - 20's
Alt. Db Curls
8/8/8 - 23 1/2's
Then lowered the weight and did an extra set of tri ext. & db curls for left arm (trying get it to catch up) using a very slow count for both up & down. Left arm was pumped after that. Then cardio was done at 60/60 ratio for 6 rounds running outside. I think I did the wrong cardio though, half way through I realized it should have been 30/90 ratio. Oh Well!
Catherine - Nice workouts! Sorry you are stuck at work!
Pebs - Hope the HS feel better!

I did BM2 DBL UB premix as I said I would. Thing is I had planned to do cardio afterwards. Well, I had some technical difficulties with my DVD player and didn't get to it. I was so angry. I through a big temper tantrum. You should have seen the looks on my dogs faces Now, I realize in the scheme of things this is a minor issue. But I just get so frustrated when things don't work. I need to work on patience
