HARD CORE FITNESS MANIAC HOTTIES FOR 7-09
- Thread starter [email protected]
- Start date
Roselyn - One of my friends is in Hilton Head this week too - she said the weather has been awesome!! I hope you are enjoying it. 
I hope everyone is doing better today and all injuries/pains are getting better. I did cardio this morning (Imax 2) and actually completed the entire workout, which I have been having trouble with lately. My eating has also been aweful this week and I'm up 4 lbs this morning - YUK.
I plan on getting my eating back under control over the weekend at camp and hope to get in lots of exercise. Saturday's forecast says rain, so I am going to try Legs and Glutes and probably a nice long hike with the dogs. My puppies are going crazy with no walks this week. The heat index is again over 100 and it was brutal even at 5:00 am when I would usually walk/jog with them. I decided to wait until tomorrow and take them for a super long hike.
I hope everyone has a great weekend. 'See' ya on Monday.

GM Ladies-
Cheryl-you will get those eats back, and way to go on Imax2.....That's a "fun" way to start the morning I gave up diet soda and wheat for the month and I can tell a HUGE difference already, I don't know why I think I can get away w/ eating horrible. It's always a struggle, have fun at camp
I did the express premix from CCC yesterday, along w/ pushups (6,6,4,4,and5) and worked on my pullups. I pulled a lat muscle on the pullups so I think I will need to adjust my strategy. According to the plan I am following online, you do 5 sets of 1 negative for 5 counts. I am having a hard time holding myself up and lowering slowly, so I think I will use the bands and really work on form. I hope to be able to do 20 one day, but right now I'd be happy w/ one I think a rest day is in order today, I feel very beat up from the run and failed attempt at pullups yesterday. Tomorrow, I should get another kb workout in. Monday, I will start TURBO FIRE.....it looks like a lot of fun; The music was awesome

Today was Meso 2, Week 1, Disc 15, Back and Biceps. Had an exceptional workout and was very careful with form and weights. Neck is still a bit sore and I have a headache. Glad I have the next two days off. Hopefully that will help.
Warmup:

T-Pull w/Band
Y's w/Band
***Used green band, 12 reps each exercise. Was real careful with these because I can't help but wonder if band work is causing this as well.
Workout:
Overhand Band Pulls - 12 reps
Palms Facing Band Pulls - 12 reps
Underhand Band Pulls - 12 reps
***I did exactly what Cedie did here. Did not do chins or pullups due to my neck problem. These were perfect and I really felt them.

***Used my preacher bench, I don't like doing these on the SB because it hurts my elbows.
Theresa - I was going to tell you yesterday, but didn't get a chance to get back in here, that you shouldn't do pullups if your traps are sore. Not a good plan. I hope you are ok. Start slow with the pullups, it will come. And using assistance is the best way to start.
Roselyn - Hope you are having fun!
Cheryl - Have a great weekend at camp!

Hi to everyone!
Theresa - Way to go on giving up the soda and wheat - I wish I could! I am so dependent on caffiene, especially when I have afternoon patients, that I just don't think I could go without it. Good work on the pullups - they are a bear!! I am going to check out Turbo Fire on the internet, although DH says I'm not allowed to buy any more workout DVD's for a while.
Debbie - I'm glad you have a few days off to "nurse" the neck. I hope you feel better next week.
I'm off to camp for the weekend in about an hour. Have a great one everyone!!

I thought that I was going to be back here at lunch but never happened.
My foot was still hurt this morning so I had to modify a lot. My Nike compression socks helped relieve it though so I went to stop and get some more when I got the kids to go to the library. I started with Brook Benton's Cardio Pump Fusion w/up, Kettlebell cardio and crank 35 minutes 175 calor...ies, then I did Power 90 Fat Burning Express using an 8# med ball 36 minutes 190 calories, I followed with Amy's 10 minutes solution 5 day get fit abs and Turbo Fire Abs 10 class 21 minutes 64 calories and finished with Turbo Fire Stretch 10, 12 minutes 24 calories. Total calories burned was 459.
