Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Monday June 30

Morning Maniacs -

This morning I did WSFL. The strength portion was deadlifts followed by the metabolic circuits of RDL's/Abs on Ball and then Step Ups & KB Swings. I used my 35 lb KB for the swings. Intervals were 30/90...but I did them more like 30/60 - 6 rounds...but I did 7 rounds. Workout with cooldown and stretch was 60" and I burned 442 calories. Tunes were the new Shinedown - Sound of Madness and Papa Roach Paramour Sessions for cardio.

Have great workouts everyone.

Diane Sue - my HRM doesn't have a "zone setting". It only tells me total calories burned, the percentage that I'm working out at and it has an alarm that goes off everytime I burn a total of 3500 calories and then I reset it.

Deb - give me a shout when the Avon order needs to be in. I'm still undecided on a few things....but I'm definitely ordering! Thanks.
 
Wow, had no energy this morning. Not sure why. I chose iTread Set 7 which was a 40 minute workout. Constant jogging, some of the time on hills others on flat road. I varied my speeds from 4.0 to 5.0. I just didn't have it in me to go any higher then that today.

Then I did the ab work from Step, Jump & Pump.

[font color=indigo]Cardio only stats:[/font]
[font color=blue]42 minutes
36 minutes in zone
263 calories burned
2.79 miles travelled
[/font]

It's weird, my treadmill calorie burn reading and HRM reading was really close there for a while. Now it's way off again. My treadmill showed 313 calories burned. Weird.

Lora - Will do. Next order goes in on Sunday, July 6th. I'll remind you before them. Thanks!
 
Good Morning Maniacs!!!

Today I will work legs and add in some Imax 2 blast moves inbetween. Also work abs. Have to work tonight.

Hope you all had a great weekend.

Debbie

Great workout. Sometimes I don't feel like going fast either. Depends on the body at the time.
 
Morning Maniacs,

Was suppose to start a new rotation this morning, but instead no workout for me. I feel like hell! DS share a nasty respiratory virus with me. Chest hurts when I cough, throat hurts when I swallow and head feela like it's going to explode. It will take all I have to clean my house today.

Have a great day!
 
Good Morning, I finished my workout. I started with CIA Sharon Twombly Athletic Step Jam checked my calorie burn before I went on and did the stability ball segment and it was 618 calories after the ball work it was 790. Then I did Cathe's Super Sets lower blas skipping the w/up. I skipped past the pauses to keep it moving and too brief breaks after each of the 3 times through all of the exercises.
Weights were
squats 65# barbell
deadlifts 65# barbell
plie squats holding 25# db's on shoulders (I hate holding a heavy bar in front of me.
DB 1 leg squat i held 15# db's instead of 1 in the front.
Then I did Bowflex Supersets
Leg extension 200# 10 reps superset with leg curls 100# 10rep 3sets
Leg Press 310# 12 reps superset with Bowflex calf raises 310# 20reps
3 sets
I went back and did the stretch from Super Sets and Dr Yoga Housecall bye bye back pain segment from Ana and Ravi's dvd. This segment is pretty good. Total Calories burned was 1095 today.
I am off to pick up my granddaughters and go to the library in a bit. I changed the zone setting on my hr monitor to high. I had it on Max:0 So I guess the other day when I hit my target zone for 27 minutes during the intervals I was in my Max range.

Lora, after having this hr monitor I think I would find it hard to use one that didn't have all of the features I have. I do think I may eventually get a low cost one just for when mine needs to have the batteries changed out. Kind of don't want to be completely without it LOL

Linda, sorry you caught a virus. I hope you get past it quickly.

Debbie, we all have those days. You still got a nice calorie burn in.

Charlotte, sounds like a nice leg circuit you have planned:)
