1 minute rest between each set.

QUADS
Squats - 65#/12 reps - 2 sets (warmup)
Squats - 85#/8 reps - 3 sets

***These burned like a mother. Haven't done lunges in forever.

***Put concentration on pushing up with my heels. Really felt this in my glutes.

HAMSTRINGS

I am waiting at school and left my log at home. I started with Amy's 10 Miute Solution 5 Day Get Fit Kickbox. section 2 times 21 min Then I did my last workout for Mesocycle 1 chest, shoulders, & biceps. I will do some yoga/ stretching when I get home.

Debbie-YAY for rubbery legs You put together quite a nice little rotation for yourself

Roselyn-nice weights

Diane Sue-I am sure your workout was nothing short of amazing

Yesterday I did Peak 10 Cardio Interval Burn. Workout was 65 min with the warm up and stretch. I was only going to do a few segments but I got going and didn't want to stop. I really enjoy these workouts and am very excited for the other 8 she will be putting together

Roselyn - Great leg workout. Are you just using individual STS workouts, or have you pulled together some sort of rotation? Either way, you've been getting in a lot of good weight work.

Debbie - You're on a role with weight workouts Your recovery week must have done good things.

Theresa - That's a good feeling -- when you get going and don't want to stop. You've been getting in a lot of tough work despite your busy week

Diane Sue - How are those shorter workouts (10 min. Solution). You do a nice job of integrating them in as add ons Enjoy your yoga - I need some of that today, too.

Teddy - Saw your post from yesterday. Lunch sounded good and so did your workout . Glad your energy kicked in for you.

Yesterday, I did Insanity's Power and Resistance. I had a very hard time talking myself into starting. Glad I did. I had a really great workout (yay ). I felt very fast and strong and had enough energy to go ahead and do the Insanity Upper Body Weight Training. This workout is less intense than the other Insanity's but still moves at a pretty good clip and includes a bit of cardio. The first time I did it, I went too light (which was ok -- unusual movements I wasn't sure about). I made better selections this time. Enjoyed it very much. It must be a leg day. That's what I have on my schedule, too. I'm planning to do some work with PLB and Insanity's Cardio Recovery or yoga tonight.

Have a good day.

Lori, I have a few 10 Minute Solutions. I am partial to the ones Amy did so far. My favorites are her Bootcamp one and the 5 Day Get Fit. I have two others with her. I also have a Kettlebell one where the instructor uses a dumbbell that I like but with my knowledge of Kettlebell workouts I change up some of the moves and use a kettlebell. They are pretty handy when you want to add in a quick something or string several segments together. You can use a blender and set which ones you want to use. I like Insanity Cardio Recovery. It is sort of like yoga and a bodyweight leg workout I wondered at the recovery LOL I used lighter weights the first time on the upper body workout too. I have done it a lot. Once I figured out the weights I found it to be a pretty good workout.

Theresa, it really makes a difference when you enjoy the workout

Debbie, nice workout

Roselyn, good weights. Did you find you could go heavier this time after completing Meso 3?

Diane Sue, I didn't know the Yoga House Call dvd had an arthritis section; do you find it effective? My mom has some problems with arthritis, although nothing too severe.

Today I went to Candle Light yoga class, which is nice after a crappy day of commuting and traffic.

Yesterday I did the interval premix of Amy's hi/lo dome workout, some swing/squat things with the kettlebell (I don't know if those have a particular name), and then the stability ball work in Pyramid Lower Body.
