Good Afternoon!
Today I did Mix It Up. I feel like I keep improving each week with this workout.
Lat pulls, alternating lunges/hammer curls, (10# - up 5#) bent-over rows, crossover lunges/bicep curls, double rows (RB), squats/bicep curls (RB), jogging, half jacks (also 10# - up 2#)
Shoulder presses, pliés, pliés/front raises, rear delt raises, reverse lunges/side kicks, arnold press, pliés/lateral raises, rear delt raises, squats/side leg lifts,
alternating shoulder press (RB), jogging, half jacks (10# - all up 5#) except no double time reps on the Arnold Press
"Midsection series" -- punches, reaches, uppercut punch, crossover punch, upward reaches, side crunches, crossover reaches, side bends, downward reaches, chair pose, plié pose, side stretch (2#)
Standing chest flies (8# - up 3#), one-arm french press (RB), c-sweeps (for chest 8# - up 2#), supine french press (8# - up 1#), pelvic tilts, push-ups (20), kneeling tricep kickbacks (8# - up 1#), bent-leg lifts (first time using 5# ankle weights), chest press (10# - up 2#), rotating chest press (10# - up 2#), rib cage pullovers (started with 10s and had to go down to 8s - I guess the chest work really exhausts me), tricep press - 8#
Abs -- reverse crunches, alternating oblique crunches, standard crunches, double crunches
Deanie - Great workout! Sizing is crazy everywhere. I'm anywhere from a 0 to a 4 at Ann Taylor. Target is size 2 jeans. I'm a size 5 ring and they're loose on me now. I guess you let me in on what I have to look forward to. I have allergies but I can't live without a dog. We're on our second Pomeranian. The first one never shed but this one does. We recently got him cut short for the summer and he hasn't been shedding for awhile.
Melissa - I think it's great all your kids are getting the exact kind of education they need. I fought for years to try and get my DS the education he needed. It's too bad most schools are one-size-fits-all types when kids have so many different types of learning styles.
Jane - Maybe you should think of signing up for this ultramarathon:

Your workout looks great today. It's actually an easy one to figure out. I've copied it for future reference.
Gayle - Hope you're enjoying your time off!
Waves to all!
