Good Afternoon Everyone!
Over the weekend, I did a couple of pullups and 5 chinups and did a few straight leg levitation holds.
Today was Tone It Up. I increased my weights on some things again. I feel like my body is adapting to these workouts and I need to keep increasing the weights.
Lower body: dip, squat, squat + leg lift, front kick + back kick (no weights)
Step touch + pull-backs, squat + row, alternating reverse fly, reverse fly, upright row, squat + hammer curl - all 7# except for bentover rows and alternating reverse fly which I used 8# (up 1#).
Plie squat + chest crossover, plie squat + chest pullup, plie squat + standing chest fly, squat + tricep kickback - all 5#
Dip + front raise, lunge + bicep curl, static lunge + side raise, shoulder combo: front-side-rear raise, rotator cuff, squat + W-press, squat - All 5# except for bicep curls and rear delt raise which were 7# (up 2#).
Chest fly, chest press, tricep press, bridgework + tricep lying overhead ext, bridgework - 8# but used 8s and 10s on chest flies and presses. Went up 2# on chestwork.

Used 5# for rollups and rowing motion.
Deanie - Enjoy your last few weeks of vacation! Our school district started back today. I think they finished in the middle of May. I think it's great you're able to stick with your rotations for so long.
Tami - Congratulations on your promotion and good job with Newport!
Melissa - I love skull crushers! I have a couple of Barry's Bootcamp but still have yet to try them. The cardio looked a little scary at the time! Even though Slim Series is high rep/low weight, many of the exercises are multi-bodypart. Glad to hear the first day of school went smoothly.
Jane - Glad to hear you're enjoying Insanity. I'm planning on watching them on Saturday.
Rhonda - Thanks for the training tips! Sounds like your training session really helped you.
Waves to all!
