Hi Everyone,
I didn't get to run yesterday so I did P90X Kenpo and then 2 rounds of a kettlebell drill that included squat thrust, thrusters and swings. I ended with 30 or 40 swings with my 35# bell.
It's still raining today
mad so I will do Firepower inside.
Farmer ~ Enjoy your rest day.
Deanie ~ Great job on the push ups.
Waves hello to Andilynn, Marcy and Gayle.

Good morning!
Today is a gym day. I'm planning to work deadlifts and then throw in a little Crossfit style met-con afterward.
Farmer - Good work on Providence! Tell me more about your 100 pushup or burpee challenge.
Jane - I hope you get some dry weather soon. I think the Slingshot routine is my favorite on the Keith Weber DVD.
Deanie - Sounds like a good workout. Thank you for pointing me to that AOS thread! I got a lot of good information for working kettlebells and heavy lifts simultaneously. It should fun.
Marcy - Those pull up ladders look tough! Good job.
Andilynn - Sounds like you are busy! Are you taking classes full or part-time?
Have a good day everyone!!

I was really looking forward to doing cardio today. I had my workout all planned out in my head last night and then the phone rings and it's my DH asking me if I'm gettting up today. I overslept by an hour and a half! Apparently I forgot to set my alarm. I was really mad and obviously didn't get my workout in for today. I guess I needed the extra sleep.
Deanie - Great job on the pushups! Here's an article about "kettlebell hands" which I thought would be helpful to you and everyone else:

My DH and I have both used the ped egg on our feet and it works really well so I plan to try it on my calloused hands.
Jane - Enjoy Firepower! It's been a couple of months since I've done it and can't wait to do it again.
Gayle - Thanks! Pullups are never easy. I hope you have a great workout today. How long are you planning to work on your deadlifts?
Farmer - Sounds like you're really enjoying Providence. Good job!
Waves to Andilynn! Have a great day everyone.

I'm planning to continue working deadlifts indefinitely, but only really heavy once a week. Lately I've noticed that they're really used a lot in the Mtn Athlete, CrossFit, and Gym Jones workouts.
I think I'm going to also try doing heavy squats once a week, and see how that goes.

Good Afternoon
Marcy::: Sorry you missed your workout today, I hate when that happens!! Thanks for the article. I don't use a pumice stone, but I have been using an emery board and the corn huskers lotion on my hands. I also have been wearing a bandaid with neosporin on it all day and taking it off at night (changing the bandaid as needed during the day) Unfortunately, the blisters I am getting are from that days workout but good to know I'm doing all the right things! really like the glove idea, maybe that added to my blister (apparently I have the wrong kind for kb's) so I will look into the cotton ones
Jane::: Love firepower!! Hope you had fun! I like how you workout outside. I think I am to self concious too!! I'd feel like my neighbors were watching me (like they have nothing better to do!!)
Gayle::: Enjoy your workout today! I'm glad the article/forum discussion was of interest to you
Andilynn::: Nice to be busy again, isn't it!?
Have a great evening everyone!

Hi everybody! Well tonite will be kettlebells again, I'm thinking Santa Monica so I can play with the ropes! I ran a air hammer all day today and my wrists are killing me so I don't know how well I'll do, this may be a short workout!
Deanie- you're right it is good to be busy again, I was getting bored!
Marcy-That's a bummer about your workout, I hate when I plan one and something derails it!
Jane- I should really try working out in the back yard, I live in the middle of nowhere and nobody could see me!
Marcy-I'm taking classes part-time while working full-time and I'm hoping to go full-time after all my prereqs are done.
Farmer- Enjoy your rest day!
