Today I did Kelly's
RAW Weights 1 In the Garage workout. OMG, what a great workout that was. Holy smokes, my muscles were burning by the end of each body part. I skipped the legs, just didn't feel like it plus they are sore from yesterday. Had an awesome workout!!
Tabata style (and I love the program she uses to do the tabata start and stops), 25 seconds on/10 seconds off. 8 rounds each body part.
Biceps
Dumbbell Curls: 15's (4 rounds)
Hammer Curls: 15's(4 rounds)
(alternated between the two)
Alternate Lunges as rest (just walked in place)
Shoulders
Shoulder Press: 15# (used only one dumbbell so it was more of a front shoulder exercises) - 4 rounds
Upright Row: 15# (she one arm at a time) - 4 rounds
(alternated between the two)
Alternate Lunges as rest (just walked in place)
Back
Lawnmowers: 15# (alternated each round between right and left side so 4 rounds each side) - KILLER!

Crunches - 4 rounds
Reverse Crunch - 4 rounds
Seriously, a killer workout. My biceps were dying by the end of the first section. Chest too, OMG. Loved this! So check out my stats, I'm definitely going to post something on the Fitbit forum but a lot of good it will do:
Workout was 54 minutes (even though I didn't do legs, not sure how this happened), burned only 174 calories - COME ON! My HR was racing with this one, it was non stop. HR was 91/178 so why were my readings so low? And every time I looked at my FB it showed my HR was below 100.
So check this out, I walked - WALKED on my treadmill for 21 minutes. Every time I looked at my FB it said my HR was 178! Really? I only get to 178 when I'm running a sprint. Workout was 21 minutes, burned 175 calories (TM said 121 and my FB is usually really close that number) went 1 mile and did 2475 steps. HR was 149/186 - impossible. Usually my HR is at 123 the whole time I'm walking. So what is going on with this thing? So frustrating.
Oh, and it also says that my active minutes total time for today so far was 37 minutes. WTF??? Should be at least an hour if not more!!!
I need to do a Lindsey workout, hopefully later on I will have time.
Jolie - How are your legs today? Great workout yesterday, you killed it! Hope you can find a Cathe workout like you are talking about. I thought she had a couple out there like that? I looked through all my sheets and only found Total Body Barbell Challenge but some of the exercises are repeated. Maybe check your notes for that one. My neck, traps and upper back are doing good. My shoulders, the left one for sure, are still really tight, working on that.
Diane - Nice job with your cardio workouts yesterday. How have you been feeling lately? Are your shoulders and neck ok so far? I can see why your PT had you do those exercises, they have really helped me a great deal. That knot I had is totally gone. It was there for weeks so I'm happy about that. Trying to keep it away. And I agree, Lindsey does a great job describing what you should be feeling and how the move is done. She is top notch, thanks for finding her!
Oh, and I can't believe you did those kickbacks with 15#! That would have pulled a muscle for me for sure. 10# was challenge enough on that one for me.
Roselyn - Great job with legs yesterday!
Doreen - Great job with the bike ride!!
Have great workouts everyone! It is beautiful here, I'm going out to enjoy it.
