Damage Control STS Style...Teusday

Hello Ladies.

Decided to take my rest day today because when my alarm went off and I went to turn it off it hurt to move. ACK. I was also still very tired despite getting to bed at a decent hour so I reset my alarm and slept in. Only one day early so no big deal...

BBL!
 
Hi Ladies,

Wow, it is super cold....the high for today is -5. All the schools are closed due to the cold temps, wind chill is -30 to -40, I don't recall it ever being this cold. Maybe when I lived in Montana, definitely had some cold winters there.

DH and I have both come down with headcold. DS2 has had it for the past week and now it seems as though it is spreading through the family.

Today will be another cardio and abs day. I'll decide on a w/o when I get downstairs, after another cup of coffee. I'm not terribly sore, but definitely can feel that I worked CST yesterday.

Wendy-have a good rest day.

Jacque-see you are getting the hang of your new iphone.;) Hope the Dr. comes up with a plan to help you with your migraines. You'll have to let us know how the new assistant works out.

Diana:: Wow your cold temps make ours seem like child's play! Try and keep warm! :eek:

Jacque:: I echo Diana's sentiments that I hope the doc can figure out a way to get a handle on your migraines for you. (((hugs)))

So I forgot to mention this earlier....when I go back to working out tmrw I will be in an active recovery week. I completed the first 4 weeks out of 8 of meso 1 and asked Cathe if an active recovery week would be ok even though she does not have one in the official rotation. She responded saying it's definitely a good idea and she should have put them in the 6.5 month rotation as such. So I am looking forward to a week of work outs w/o heavy lifting! Considering going for shorter w/o's all week too...perhaps about 30 mins plus abs. :)
 
Didn't get to check in yesterday, but I did run. It's a new week and a new interval, 13/2. I think from here on, the intervals are pretty much psychological. I'm running 13 minutes without a break. I could probably do 30. But it's nice to know that "at the top of this hill I get to walk for a couple minutes." Just long enough to breathe and get a drink. :D

Today I did BM2--Double Upper premix. I loved it. I've really been enjoying all the upper body premixes. I don't always like doing a 3 day weight split, so doing ALL the upper body on one day is a great option.

My dog's ear seems to be improving. Great relief! :p But now DH has a cold. Hoping that I don't catch it!
 
Hey Ladies ..

sorry I have been MIA - the stupid cough that I had THURS has turned into a dang cough from H### and fever and coughing up crud from my lungs- thinking i have bronchitis ..UGH!! :mad: NOT what I wanted .. never fails .. I take vacation and end up sick!! But FRI we went to Biloxi cough and all - gambling and had a great time - I WON!! woot woot!! Then SAT was out in night air and think I made the cough worse so SUN I was flat out on the couch all day - I came into work ystdy but shouldnt have been here - but it is FIRST of month so I came in adn good thing we were short handed .. so I muddled thru > UGH!! I didnt teach last night and prbly shouldnt tonight .. but will prbly try to go in and teach a matt class if I dont go into coughing fits!!!

Di - those temps are BRUTAL .. they are saying that the middle of the country is about to get bombarded by a winter blizzard from H### .. stay inside and stay warm and safe!!

Wendy - think you will get some of that blizzard too - we are in the 60 here .. and we are to get rain .. but temps to plummit tmrw .. but they are expecting just rain .. no ice or snow that I know of.. this winter has been a DOOZY!

Hello to all that follow .. I gotta jet .. will try to BBL to see what everyone is up to! ;)
 
LauraR:: Yay for the running progress. I can relate to your excitement. I remember it well! :) Glad the pup's ear is improving. If you can be around him/her w/o gagging from the smell then that's a good sign! ;) OMG BM2 Double Upper is KILLER! :eek::)

LauraT:: Sorry you are sick. Be careful if you seriously think you have bronchitis! I can you can develop pneumonia if it goes untreated! :eek: Glad you had fun gambling! We might be going over Prez Day weekend! Fingers crossed! :D
 
Hi Ladies,

I did KPC this morning. I think the rest of the family is coming down with the cold that DS2 had. I feel terrible, sore throat and ears, sneezing, heavy head....yada yada yada. Glad I did my w/o this morning. I was actually hoping to do Disc 14 today, legs. I still may if I feel better tonight.

The sun actually came out today, but we were warned not to spend too much time out in the bitter cold. I think the high tomorrow is supposed to be 10.

LauraR-congrats on the running. I'm doing STS and I don't really care for the 3 day split. I'm going to stick with it for now though. Good job with BM2 Double Upper....that's a goodie. You dog is getting better, good thing you caught that infection in time.

LauraT-oh no, your sick too. ITA w/Wendy, you need to seek treatment if you think it is bronchitis. I ended up with pneumonia from the very same thing. Winner....congrats! Hope you feel better soon so you can enjoy your winnings.
