Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Tues Jan 8

[toastythemosty]

Finished workout. Had a good one.

BICEPS:

Concentration Curls w/45's 3/6

BB Curls w/85# 3 sets/5 (felt like I was dying and it looked like a blood vessel was gonna burst in my head as I watched myself)

Then dropped to 65# bb curls 3 sets/10 (felt like a feather in the wind compare to 85#) I couldn't believe how easy it was. Why can't my benching be this way????

Incline Curls w/20's (don't laugh, but after doing above, my arms were just fried) Did 3/8


TRICEPS:

Lying Tricep Ext with 20's 3/10 (getting stronger in triceps now)

Parallel Dips 7/7/7 (my best as last time was 5/5/5)

Close Grip with 60# 3/8

Ab work later.

EATS:

Meal 1: Kelloggs Protein Plus Cereal
Meal 2: Cinnamon Whole Grain Bread Toast (1 slice), Tuna Fish Kit and half grapefruit
Meal 3: Chicken Breast, spinach salad, 1/2 apple
Meal 4: Protein Shake
Meal 5: Chicken Parmesan (no noodles just chicken with provolone cheese and marinara sauce with green beans

Charlotte,

Great workout as usual, so what are you gonna do tonight? I didn't get to view my w/o's yet. Took dd to meet a friend, then came back home and did Kickmax! Let me know what you start out with and I'll join ya on the rotation!

Hi Everyone!
I haven't really checked in but have been reading. I've been working out hard!

Randi, looking good. Love the definition in your arms and shoulders! Abs look good too, I'm just wishing my would hurry up and get there!

Have a great day everyone!

Hey there...back again.

Let's see if I can get a little more personal today...

Anne - I'm a maniac...thought you knew...LOL!!! Take care of that wrist!!

Suz - Ahhhh...this is just a day in the life of me!! Sounds like to me you are capable of following a plan...just has to be something you are feeling at the time...I'm the exact same way.

Toasty - You got your P90X!! Let the madness begin!!!! Awesome workout...whenever you get through. Repeat after me....Focus on the positive and not the negative. Any woman doing bicep curls with 8d# is alright w/me!!


Linda - LOL!! Bring it!!! Great job on that workout...I need to do IMAX2 haven't done it in a while... My fav is IMAX3.

Deb - Hi there!! I was beginning to think you didn't like me anymore...

Hi Sandy!!

I'm in the wind...

Marietta,

You gotta it going on, girl! Have a nice evening!

Alright, went to Fitday because I don't keep track of my cals like some of you do. I just eat same things. I AM NOT EATING ENOUGH! Some of ya'll might be saying, "duh"! O.k., I am suppose to be eating 1900 cals a day and only had 1578!!!!! I gotta get back up there and throw in some extra eggs and stuff.

So here is the breakdown of my food intake if ya'll are interested....

Fat: 40%
Carbs: 103%
Protein 192%

YIKES!

Hey Maniacs!

Meant to check in earlier but today is just getting away from me. Decided to do a cardio day before I start my 2nd week of the P90X+ rotation so I did IMAX 3 this morning. I forgot what a great workout that is! Not sure why I don't do it more often.

Char- Can't wait to hear what you think of P90X+! Hope things are better on the job front. I'm getting ready to start a local chapter of a national women's networking group in the next couple of weeks so hopefully that will boost my business. Wish me luck

Randi-You do look amazing-it's proof that sticking with it pays off:7

Thanks everyone for the well wishes with the job. It sucks that it gets so hard to learn a job when you're older. I never used to have this much trouble. Sometimes I really just think I killed too many brain cells in my previous life!! LOL

Toasty - Let me know what you think of P90X+ when you preview or do them! I have been sore from them. Are you gonna get a chinup bar and the arm slings to do the hanging ab work? I love mine. They make it easier to control your movements. I really think women that tend to be ectomorphs on top should try to build our strength with pullups. They seem to be aggravating my injury a bit though.......or else it's the tons of pushups you do in them. I hear ya about college. I wish I'd have gone for something more than Medical Secretary.

Coni- when does your cat go to the Vet? Please let us know the outcome.

Diane Sue - yes, Tracey's CS sucks this time. I still haven't got my step DVD replaced. What happened to her? She used to be on the ball! I like the step one also....from what I can remember of it! I figured the Treadmill workout would be unique. I got Zak Lee's kickboxing from Amazon cuz I read that someone in the OD forum liked it....but I'm not sure about it. I previewed it last night. Doesn't look too intense....but it's low impact. I'll see how it is when I try it. I really need to stop buying so many workouts that I may not keep. My "not sure if I'm keeping" box is overflowing....and I haven't even tried most of them! I never even did my Pit workouts yet. I see you never use them.......so I guess they aren't that good? Thanks for the compliment about that pic. That was probably me at the verge of turning 40. I was a few years younger........still had some collagen left in my face. I notice my face is getting more delicate and sunken looking -- instead of plumped with collagen! Such is life.

I ended up finishing off with the P90X+ abs/core and then Spinervals Flecible warrior Athletic yoga swim and cycle segments(28 min) I then had a protein shake. I made the Oyster Stew from Oxygen clean eating cutting back on the potato amount and using light soy milk. I did a couple of other changes as well. That was my lunch. I guess that tiny amount of potato was my alotment for the P90X eating plan Dinner is a chicken and veggie stir fry and salad. I had lots to run and do today before I went back to pick up from school.

Charlotte, glad you got your P90X+. When are you starting? Logging your food intake can be an eye opening experience:0

Lora, I have used the ab segment off of the Pit workout more than anything else. That is near the end of the Total Body one. Really I have only done the lower one. Can't remember what I did but somehow I injured myself and never went back after I recovered to try again. I think I will eventually though. I still have my eye on Real Kickboxing. I like that it is a bag workout. How do you like Aromaleigh's Nocturne. I just got some so have only used it once. Like the silk powder.
