Crazy Strong and Loving It for October 12, 2009

It's a yucky, rainy, cold morning here. I really would like to run, but it looks like I'll have to go up to the gym to get a run in. So, I'm undecided right now. Plan is to do some sort of cardio plus abs.

Belinda - hope you enjoyed your sleeping in this morning!

Good Morning

Tonite for me is KCMs Muscle Definition and abs. I really need to focus more on my abs this week been like Debbie and just forget or don't want to do them.

Belinda-good job with whatever you do today.

Heahter-it is yucky again here today to.

Forgot to add asked DH for a punching bag to take my sexual frustrations out on.

Taking a recovery day. I'll do cardio tomorrow. Just feels good not to get up early. I've been so tired lately.

EDITED:
Roxie - That doesn't sound good. I went back and read the threads from Friday on and I'm sorry things are so bad right now. Maybe you should just tell dh to smoke. For goodness sakes, it isn't worth all this. My dh smokes and I just let him. He's been trying to quit for YEARS now and I have to just accept the fact that that is who he is. It's his body, his lungs. I can't control what he does just like you can't control what your dh does. Just sit down with him and tell him if that's what he needs to do, to do it. Hiding it is obviously making things worse for you two. {{{hugs}}}

Debbie-he says he hasn't smoked in a week but he has been on vacation all week with no stress and no one around him smoking I am waiting to see what this week brings he just bought 3 months worth of pills and they are 140.00 a month. His DDs also want him to quit before they start having families so I guess if that means I have to be miserable for awhile then I will. I am just glad I have you guys to talk to because I have no friends DH is all I have.
 
Hey Guys!

I started Week #3 of STS with DISC 7: Shoulders Chest and Biceps. Tough stuff!! That is one long tough workout, and the one where she does CONSTANT push ups. My lord , those Elmos are a joke, huh? It's crazy how much I shake (and embarassingly enough I do them on my knees :eek:)

Belinda: SS is a good weight workout though! Glad you're being smart and going light with your back.

Roxie: Sorry about your troubles with hubby. You can vent to us anytime!! ((hugs)). Sounds like you have a good workout in store for you today.

Debbie: Yay for recovery!!! Good advice for Roxie. It has to be up to the person to quit smoking, and "nagging" only makes it worse. But the sad stories I see of young people that smoke and get horrible lung cancer. Had one girl at work , 42, that was SOOO sick last night with a chest tube and couldn't breathe, for that very reason. I know it's so hard, but that stuff just breaks my heart.

Heather: Sorry you have rain there. It's coming our way too, which means I probably won't get my run day in tomorrow. :( I've really been enjoying my runs in the nice Autumn weather, enjoying the foliage at the park too.

Was supposed to go get our pumpkins today, but my oldest son started a paper route today, and it looks like it's taking too long. :(
 
I ended up running 35 mins doing tempo drills then about 8 mins on the eliptical. I did Cardio & Weights Abs as well. I am supposed to run in the Susan G Komen Race for the Cure on Sat so I am trying to decide when to do my leg workout. May need to do that tomorrow then run again Wed and Thurs with Friday as a rest day.

Chris - I keep telling my DH about the elmo pushups. He is going back and forth about trying STS. Of course, if I keep telling him about it, he may not do it! I just laughed out loud doing those silly things. That's all you can do.

Checking in -

Yes, Nora!! We care!! I think a couple of us did Imax 2 this week - good for you. And I really enjoy that pilates based AbCircuits.

Roxie, hang in there. I'm glad you had a nice evening.

Debbie, nice to hear from you. I always seem to have more time to post on the weekends. Then there are some of you "real people" that get out and have lives on weekends and we don't hear from you until Monday. Hope you enjoyed your weekend.

Then there's Chris...works the night shift on weekends - ugh! I don't know how you do it!
Heather, I'm not a "runner", so I don't know much about leg work and race prep. Have fun this weekend, though.

I'm only still up because (after work and soccer and homework) my husband is resting before graveyard and I hate to go upstairs and disturb him... I did manage to get a workout in this morning before work - Muscle Endurance. I had a really good workout and burned almost 400 calories. Holy cow!

Nice job on Supersets, Belinda. I know I'm having a really good time revisiting all of my DVDs. I have to say, though, I DID break a sweat on Muscle Endurance!!

Time to go start some coffee for DH. Then off to bed...night night....
