A little behind on the check-in. I had a good session with Katie on Friday. I am noticing some subtle differnces in my lower body since working on the functional mobility. Not anything visible, but I don't feel so tight. Esp in the buttock region. Saturday I did SZ and chinups (weighted 10#) 4/2,4/2,3/3,3/3 & 3/3 Not as good as last week, but I was a bit sore from Friday's w/o. Today I did B&Gs standing portion and LB's short KB workout.

This weekend went by way too quick!!

Linda, hope you had a good one!!
 
I would love to go back to bed :confused: Must go to work however :( I am planning upper body and cardio this evening!!

Have a good day!!
 
No workout for me Saturday, didn't get to bed until 1 am. But back at it this morning.

Superset A
Incline DB Press
6/6/6 - 40
One Arm Row
6/6/6 - 47's ***Dropped the weight even more and was able to get a good hold at the top, but had some pain in the front of left shoulder***

Superset B
Chin ups
8,8,5/8 ***Had a tough time with these this morning***
DB Chest Press
8/8/8 - 40's

Superset C
Close Grip Tricep Press
24 - 55#
23 - 50 #
25 - 45# **This wasn't suppose to be a drop set but couldn't make 25 reps, biggest problem was a burning sensation in the front of right shoulder:confused:***

Then interval cardio at 45/90 ratio using Amy's ASC powerups.


BTW, I got my first client! I am so nervous! I have lots to do to get ready, especially I will have to design programs around some bad back issues!:eek: and a few other injuries!
 
Workout done. Did upper body and HIS cardio. Too tired to remember my numbers but they were about the same as last week. Pullups were weak, but I did them :) Having a drinkie poo to relax now :cool:
 
On to the workout....

Superset A
DB Static Lunges
6/6/6 - 40
SB Rollouts
10/10/10

Superset B
RDL
8/8/8 - 115# ***Dropped the weight a gain, like it because I could but a pause at the bottom***
DB Push Press
6/6/6 - 30's

Superset C
Squats
12/12/12 - 95# ***Was suppose to be a 100, but didn't realized until after that I had forgotten to put the last set of plates on, oh well, felt like a 100:p
SB Jacknifes
15/15/15
Side Planks
3 x 45 sec. hold

Bored with the cardio so did IMAX 2 blasts only 1-7, skipping 3, because, well, I just don't like it.
 
Hey Linda!! Now when do you start working with your new client? How exciting is that :eek: Good w/o!! I'm LOL at you skipping blast # 3. I'll have to check it out because I can not remember what it is. I sometimes will skip one that I don't like and repeat one that I do. I loathe the 1st drill in DM. Can not stand it. To the point that I will skip doing the w/o just to not do the drill :confused: Now that makes a whole lot of sense!!

I've been super busy lately. Which is good when productivity comes around, but WHEW!!! I did LB 40 min KB w/o. Man that kicks some a$$. Used my 26# for practically the whole w/o. Think I need a bigger bell. But damn$$$$ Maybe when productivity comes in I will treat myself :p

Tomorrow DH is having a ganglion cyst surgically removed from his wrist. I don't know if I will be around. If I am it will be really early. I have to get up at 4 am :confused: Or it will be later in the day!!
 
Catherine I will catch up with you on the other stuff later, just want to to say hope all goes well for DH tomorrow!:D
 
Glad to hear all went well today. Make sure you get that nap!

No date to officially start training my client. We are still working out particulars. I visited an attorney to review paper work. She is cleaning her house and getting a release from her doctor. I also need to get with her and discuss what amount of time she wants to dedicate to exercise. She would like to walk in the Susan G Komen in May. So I need to look into the training for that.


Overslept ,so did Amy's ASC 1. That workout gets a lot done in a short amount of time. The entire workout is about 45 minutes and always leaves me breathing hard!
 
Hey Linda!! I am sure you are anxious to get going with that client!!! I hope it goes well for ya ;)

I did 1/2 of RS this morning and have a kb session with Katie this afternoon. DH is doing fine. I asked if he minded me leaving him and he said it was ok. I hope he meant it!! I am hoping to do some chinups tomorrow!!
 
Sorry to butt into your thread (or should I say Mutt?), but this was in today's paper, and I immediately thought of you lovely chin-up lovers! Have a fabulous weekend!

ETA: Catherine, hope your DH is doing well!!
 
I did not want to get out of bed this morning. It wasn't so much that I didn't want to work out, but rather that I just wanted more sleep So I made a compromise with myself and got up ....today's workout was not about reaching goals, setting new records, building more muscle, or going all out.... it was simply about moving when I did not feel like it.

So I lowered all the weights and it went like this....

Superset A
Incline DB Chest Press
6/6/6 - 35#
One Arm Row
6/6/6 - 42's

Superset B
Chin Ups
6/6/6
DB Bench Press
8/8/8 - 35's

Superset C
Close Grip Press
25 - 50#
15 - 45# ***At this point I switched over to doing Lying Tricep extensions because the front of my shoulders were burning too bad.***
Tricep Lying Extension
15 - 15's
25 - 12's
Rear Delt Raise
10/10/10 - 10's

Must have done something right even though I lowered the weights, because when I went to fill out my log sheet my arm was shaking. Then did BM2 Timesaver Cardio Premix.
