Today started week 2 of Meso 2, Disc 16 Chest, Shoulders and Triceps. You had the same rep pattern as last week 12/10/8 but at 75% and a final backoff set dropping weight by 40% and going to failure. Workout was 1:03 and I burned 375 calories. Then went for a walk pushing DD that was 1:05 and I burned 575 calories, for a total today of 950 calories burned.

And due to how I felt Saturday morning, I did not do anything else nor did I do anything on Sunday. I was experiencing some sharp pians in the left knee. However I did some work out in the yard both those days.

I had to drop weight several times. I was trying to do better than I did the first time I did STS. Maybe next time I should just up it by 1 ore 2#.
 
Debbie - I forgot to say Nice Job on the Chins!:D And the rest of the workout as well!

- Sometimes small increases are the way to go. That's why I love my pace weights!
 
Debbie, I have been wanting to go back and do STS again. I did play with parts of it once I finished it the first time through.

Meals today are:
b-oatmeal with 1 scoop Optimum Nutrition chocolate whey
l-mixed salad, 1 chicken breast, Kraft Greek Vinegrette with olive oil dressing
snack??-hoping to get out to the store:)
d-Muscle Chow's stuffed pepper recipe so I can use up some ground turkey I have thawed.
s-protein shake
Hopefully I can get out of the drive to go to the grocery store. The fence people are parked behind my car.
 
Nice work on STS, ladies.

Linda-congrats on the weight loss
Debbie-totally understand the fluff :(

I am getting back on the workout wagon and eating clean wagon this week. I gave up diet soda Sunday as it is doing me no favors. I have already noticed I am not as hungry. My yo-yo eating habits are really tearing my body up. I just have to be consistent. I have 20 + pounds to lose. This week I am doing 3 tb workouts (2 circuit style) and 2 additional cardio days + 1 20 min metabolic workout.
