Hardcore Fitness Maniac Hotties for 10/27

I cannot believe how sore I am still from Saturday's workout. My lats are very very sore, even to the touch. I guess the chins really worked! Today was Chest and Triceps. Had an excellent workout.

45 second rest between each set.

CHEST
Incline Barbell Press:
105# - 4/4/4 (up 5#)
95# - 12 (up 5#)
75# - 20/20 (same as last week)

Barbell Bench Press:
110# - 4/4 (same as last week)
90# - 15 (up 5#)
70# - 20/20 (same as last week)

Decline Dumbbell Press:
47's - 4/4 (same as last week)
35's - 12 (same as last week)
22's - 20/20 (up 2#)
***Started to really get fatigued with this entire set. 47's were a killer today.

Incline Dumbbell Flyes:
22's - 20/20
***Shoulder was starting to bother me here.

TRICEPS
Weighted Bench Dips:
95# - 4/4 (up 5#)
85# - 12 (up 5#)
65# - 18/16 (same as last week)
***Last two sets were hard. Not sure why I couldn't get 20 reps out with that set. Triceps were not cooperating with me.

Lying Barbell Extensions:
65# - 4/4 (up 5#)
55# - 12 (up 5#)
40# - 20/20 (same as last week)
***Should have gone to 45# with last two sets. These felt good.

Overhead Dumbbell Extensions:
47# - 4/4 (same as last week)
42# - 12 (up 2#)
35# - 20/20 (same as last week)

Kickbacks:
12's - 20/20 (same as last week)
***I hate kickbacks. The last set was a struggle.

That is all. I am wiped out and very sore. Even my abs are still sore. I had a heck of a time getting my workout top off.
 
Happy Monday :rolleyes:

I had a GOOD workout this morning;) What I noticed was this, I've gotten stronger and my form was perfect (almost) :D really tho I couldn’t believe the differences from last week. For most of the exercise I was able to do more reps and push ups also when doing the chin up, I nailed em;) still used stool, but sooooo much better than last week.

Morning Maniacs! Had a fantastic weekend mountain biking. Got in some great riding. I was surprised how well I did considering I haven't gone on any hard rides in weeks. Fruita Co. is by far my favorite place to ride.:) Today will be RCR workout A2 followed with a stretch and then I plan on taking chubbo...I mean Carma out for a bike ride.;)

Here is a pic from this weekend.

Haven't had a chance to catch up on what I missed this weekend yet, but hope to do that a little later. Saturday I did LIC timesaver cardio premix and this morning was a premis from Amy's ASC 3, which was about 55 minutes. Hoping to fit in some good stretching this week.

Now, I have to work on Vader .....
 
Good Morning Maniacs!!!

Today is Chest/Triceps/Abs. I am also still sore from the back/bicep workout a few days ago...BIG TIME!!

Bionics,

Debbie,

Excellent workout! Really doing very well. Love the rotation.

Teddygirl,

Nicely done. Dang...alot of pullup stuff. Really looks like you worked it good!

You posted same time.

Thanks Toasty. My legs are getting pretty strong and when I pinch them I don't get huge globlets of fat anymore, lol! Anywhos, that ride takes us 3 1/2 hrs to get too, but it's worth it! I'm for sure going to watch some scary movies. My son just bought Saw 3 and I'm Watching Omen 3 right now while I'm working.:eek:
 
Dallys - Cool picture!!!

Speaking of scary movies, we seen a good one this weekend called "The Strangers". No gore or gutts everywhere, just one good edge-of-your-seat-make-you-jump suppenseful movie. It was excellent.
 
Good morning!

Okay - you guys are gonna shoot me! I think I'm gonna dump P90X and I'm only in week 3. Here's why. I am making so many modifications to it that it hardly resembles P90X and it takes me longer to do each workout b/c I keep stopping to add my own stuff and since I'm trying to get my back stronger to do pullups by doing pulldowns and back rows and stuff my weight workouts are taking more like an hour and a half plus the extra cardio of an hour that I want to add in. And then on the leg day I add my own leg workout and then I add another leg day and I don't do his cardio except for PlyoX and I don't do the YogaX. So I figured that maybe I should just make up my own workouts. I've been looking at a lot of the transformations on the bodybuilding.com site and I'm thinking I might copy some workouts from there. I just have to sit down and figure out what's best for me. I've never really planned out a "real" workout plan for myself. I've always just winged it and that's never gotten me great results. I need to make sure I lift heavy enough b/c although I overwork myself on cardio, I think I can tend to underwork on weights. Here's what I did today:

Smith Machine Lat Pulldowns 50# 15/15 55# 15reps

Smith Machine Squats 105# 15/15/15 (these are reps - does this make sense?)

Pullups 9/9/7 - all assisted

Step ups 30# each hand 15/15/15

Cable Back rows 40# 12/15/15

Pushups 20/20/20

Bulgarian Split Squats 30# 15/15/15

One Arm Lat Rows 15# 15 17.5# 15/15

Deadlifts 40# 15/15/15

I ran out of time. I didn't plan this until I was in my workout room. :) I know I can lift heavier on a lot of this and should have gone up in weight on some of it and need to push myself more. See what I mean? :(

Great workouts you guys!

Dallys - Gorgeous pic (and gams!!!).
 
Dallys: Look at you :) such a nice picture:) and what a beautiful places to ride. your legs look very good and tone;)

Toasty: Lots of push ups and chin-ups:eek: I’m can’t believe how much I have improved since last week, its crazy!:eek:

Suz: I understand, this is why I could never finish P90X, I like doing my own thing and it really does take discipline to follow Tony I ain’t mad at ya:D. BTW, Niiiiiiiiiiice Workout ;)

Okay, so here are the kind of transformations I've been reading...

http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/transf153.htm

See what I mean??? Doesn't she look amazing? Granted she's 28, but look at Diane Sue! Boy, I'd really have to clean up my eating and start lifting A LOT heavier! And I'd probably have to cut down my cardio, huh? What did she have, like ONE cheat day the entire time??? Ha! I'm not quite that dedicated!!! I could be without DH, but...

We all have to have goals though, right? :D

Teddygirl - Thanks for understanding. I do love that Tony though.
 
Suz: You can be with DH, I know your DH is very supportive of any thing you do :D Okay, may take a little longer (3 to 6 months top) but you can do it. I say go for it;) You got all the equipment you'll probably need, in your home, right? You may have to eat more, can you do it? Teddygirl wants to know:D

Teddygirl - Yup, DH is very supportive. He wanted me to do my own thing all along instead of P90X. I think he was worried about my shoulder mostly, but it's really been fine. On the eating, if I tell him I'm only cheating one day a week, he'll go along with that and won't try to sway me. And I think I can eat more if I have a goal. I did good over the weekend and so far today I have had 1/2 a Carnation Instant Breakfast before workout (that wears off pretty fast during my workout), Myoplex Lite shake with 3/4 of a small banana in it after workout, portion of lowfat cottage cheese with small portion of lowfat yogurt and it's 11:30 now. That's a lot for me in one day already. So I'm trying! I'll eat again in an hour and a half or so. :D
 
Teddy- Debbie-Suz- Thanks! You guys are great!

Suz- I'd love to make a transformation like that! She looks great. Like Teddy said, go for it, you have all the stuff and you have the dedication to do it! :cool:
 
I am home from Grandparents day at granddaughter's school. Was hoping to get past the donuts but she served me up one so I ended up eating it. Not a fan of donuts really. Then we went to her book fair and I bought some books:) No workout yet. Did the cardio last night so am hoping to get some abs and maybe lower body in later. I have had a upset stomach all day. Got to go pick up the girls and take them home. Still waiting on my Tony's one on one road warrior:rolleyes: I e mailed beach body the other day but have not heard anything back.

Dallys, I don't see any fat anywhere. How you could have any globlets of fat with all of the mountain biking that you do. You look great.

Suz, those transformation pictures are always so motivating. When I find my self eating junk I look at those and it helps me control it. Would like to put the pics in the refrigerator and on the inside of the cupboards but the family would all think I had gone nutso:p I know you can do it. Just need the right things to keep you motivated and it is good that your dh is supportive. If that is more than you normally eat in a day I think it is not enough. I would be starving!!
 
It is harder to keep to strict eating with family and such, but I have done it. It really comes down to "choice"....which reminds me...I really need to freeze that Halloween candy like Diane Sue has done with her. That was a great idea! O.k., time to workout now. Been proscratinating and doing this and that too much. Post stats tomorrow. Have a great evening!

Suz:good lordy, that's nothing:p You'd have to get use to eating more, check out there menu, I am, nice meal option.

Thanks Diane Sue.:) I seriously got to a point where I felt like I had goblets of fat were all over me. My legs feel pretty firm right now, so I'm happy about that. Like Char, I thought the idea of putting the Halloween candy in the freezer was a great idea...(unless you buy snicker bars, love those frozen). I bought candy that is not my fav and that helps too. I bought a skittles, nerds, laffy taffy and tootsie roll mix. Of course the tootsie rolls are almost gone, but still!:eek:

Suz- It's been over an hour. Have you eaten yet? :p
 
Eatery today

M1: 1/4 grapefruit & BSN shake (post workout)
M2: 1 c oatmeal w/ 3 egg whites
M3: 2 slices of double fiber bread w/ 2 slices of deli turkey w/mustard
M4: apple w/1 slice cobby cheese
M5: 1 1/2c of turkey chili (homemade with tons of kidney beans):p;)
