Hiya!
Sorry, this is going to have to be another quickie (sort of), as I'm seriously behind and have a bunch of stuff to prepare for tomorrow.
My neck/shoulders are a lot better today...and luckily I had Pilates on schedule, so I did a bit of that, but took it pretty easy, just in case.
The squirrels had some kind of Spaz-Fest this morning around 5am, speeding around the room like maniacs, and although I was incredibly sleepy, it was totally funny and had me LMAO with their sprinting back and forth.
MICHELE - I wanted to say that the tree talk totally peeved me! That truly sucks that they are cutting the trees down. Urgh.
>Do you think it was because of the kettlebells?
NO. Definitely NO. For the past number of days, I've had stiff shoulders, and I very, very, very rarely have stiff shoulders. I think the main problem is my stinking computer -- the touch pad and click and really stiff, so I end up using a lot of energy pushing them, and the more I use my computer, the stiffer my shoulders get, and I happened to be on the computer a lot this week.
I've got a spare mouse (due to those problems) but sometimes I'm lazy and don't plug it in and only realize I should have been using it once my shoulders start to ache from using the one on the computer.
It also may have been influenced by my being in bed propping my head up in the palm of my hand and bending my neck in odd positions while resting and watching Frasier on DVD LOL.
BECKY - Good lawd, how many pushups are you doing?! That is disgusting LOL.
>I hope your neck feels better when you wake up . That is my only hestitation with the KB's
Please don't let that sway you as I'm confident my problem was NOT due to the KBs. In fact, they say that KB workouts are very good for the back and are often used for rehabilitation of back trouble. (Course, I guess that all depends on if you're doing the movement correctly LOL.)
With my stiff shoulders this week, it was bad timing on my part to push myself with the KBs.
JENNIFER - I'm sending good vibes on your meeting and your phone call. Please keep us up to date with how things are going! We're here to talk or whatever you need when you need!
DANA - LOL, I see you're looking through all the KB stuff now! I would love to have a cute KB. But my plain ol' silver one is pretty cool, so it's not so bad.
I haven't tried doing the 1RMs yet. Did you find that the computer is saving your info? I guess I'll have to do them at some point, but I want to be sure to do them when the thing is running properly....so tell me when it's safe LOL.
I'm sorry to hear about Gabe. I hope he's feeling all the way better now.
Urgh, I HATE hearing stories about sick pets. It makes me so blue.
>Bionic Smilies & the CC spot
OMG, LMAO!!
So did we decide on our new name?
SMILE THOUGH YOUR HATE IS BREAKING
?
SMILIES AND SPOTS
?
Okay, sorry to be emoticon-less again, but as Shannon said, it takes a long time when you do it that way and I really got to run.
I'm off!
