Morning Girls!:)

X Shoulders and Back/ARX did not happen y'day. I ended up short on time but I did my own heavy shoulders/arms circuit so it's not like I didn't get a work out in!}( I didn't have time for abs so ARX is on the schedule for today along with Legs and Back and a run. The run is supposed to be this evening in the park with my friend but w/all of the rain coming down I have a feeling I'll end up at the gym...

So what's up with everyone else? :)
 
Morning ladies!!

Sorry didn't make it to the forums .. seems even though I was at home I was super busy ... but I read all of your posts!! Sounds like everyone had a good weekend .. and was a bit devilish on the food .. I am including myself in that group .. for some reason I was on a SALT kick .. I get that way sometimes .. the food was not that bad .. but I salted everything ???? now I feel like a puffer fish!! DH did cook some fried chicken last night .. mmm mm mmm .. so that was my devilish treat!!

SIL and I did Muscle Endurance Sat. .. OMG... I forgot how freaking hard that was .. WTH is up w/the bicep work in that one .. BBC has spoiled me on lighter weights .. I did the torture LOOOOOONG bicep section w/the bar .. about 35# .. OH YEAH could not straiten my arms yesterday .. :eek: .. so used that as an excuse to take a REST day .. and lounged by the pool all afternoon .. yes I was a bum!!

Today the asylum is insane .. we are THREE short today :eek: WTH?? everyone gets sick and has Dr. appnt at the same time??? yikes .. so I am on the counter .. but hey I am off the #$!@#%#$ sales floor .. so I am not complaining too bad .. maybe I will make it back to my desk tommorrow!!

OK .. BBC bicep/tricep torture at lunch .. then circuit class tonight!! gotta get serious again ... JEEZE Monday's come all too soon don't they!!!

will BBL (hopefully) for personals!!

have a great one!!:7
 
Hi ladies,

I did Lowmax this morning and have bootcamp tonight. I was planning on going to the rec ctr at lunch but didn't make it. I feel a little guilty going to the rec ctr at lunch since I have to come in late and leave early everyday this week. Jerod has lacrosse camp from 8:30-12 and football camp from 5:30 to 7:30pm everyday this week. I guess I will have to do my weight workouts in the morning at home.

I've been busy looking up the kids school registration dates and times this morning. I'll have to work from home or schedule some time off to take care of this.

Wendy-could ya send some rain my way please. We are in a heat wave, upper 90's all week again with no rain in the forecast. I'm so thankful we have central air at home.

Laura-glad you had a nice relaxing weekend! If I had a pool, I'd be lounging by it everyday. If you don't mind me asking, is the upkeep on a pool pretty expensive, or is it reasonable in your opinion. In Colorado, many of the neighborhoods have a community pool, but most homes do not.

Angie-Sounds like you had fun camping. Thanks for the info on Deep discount. I actually purchased Ripped 1000 from Ross for $5.99. Another forum member told me about getting cheap workout dvd's from Ross. I also picked up a kickboxing workout for $2.99 but haven't tried it yet.

Happy Monday,

Diana
 
Diana .. re: the pool .. the upkeep is amazingly NOT expensive .. DH handles the chemicals .. and he of course does it himself and has it perfect .. when we first got the pool in last year .. we ran the pump 24/7 .. the electricity bill shot up .. so we bought a timer .. it turns on in the morning .. runs about an hour or two ..then it comes on around 5:00 or so and runs 2 hours .. now we don't really notice it ..

I LOVE the pool .. DH brother does backhoe and landscaping .. the guy wanted his pool dug up .. he actuallly dug it up .. we bought the shell .. and DH and brother in law put it in .. yeah .. I know I am a lucky gal!!:) :)

Everyone told us how expensive and time conuming a pool was .. but really don't see where they are getting that ... as far as cleaning it .. we have a polaris and it does all the work for us .. after a big storm there is some "sweeping/sucking" to do .. but other than that it is SUPER easy!

It is so hot here too .. to lay outside . requires a pool float .. as in getting IN the water .. LOL .. and of a course a healthy supply of CABS for the really hot day .. LOL!;)

OK .. 5:00 finally made it here .. on the circuit class .. think it is gonna be 4 step LOWER body circuit ... bring on the burn!!!}(

have a great one!!
 
Hi Girls.

I did B&G Floorwork and Abs premix this afternoon along with 6 sets of pull ups and 2 sets of calf raises.

My run got rained out but is rescheduled for tomorrow. I will be doing Yoga as well. :)

Have a great night!
 
Hi girls

Back to the grind today.;( Getting up on Mondays is the worst! Thank the lord for coffee.:) My shoulder is much better today and I am so relieved. It really wasn't very good this morning but I took some motrin after work and before doing lowmax and I was able to get thru it without any problems and have been virtually pain free since the workout. I'm not 100% ROM yet, but pretty darn close. I feel like I could actually do a shoulder press if I needed to, but I'm takin' it slow.

Wendy - B&G floorwork huh? Yikes - I despise it, but I do it.}( It seems like the reps will never end. And you added pull ups to that?? Ouch! Do you do a Yoga DVD? Which one is your fav or how long do you normally do Yoga for? I'm thinking I really need to add a yoga into my routine, but since I'm not a fan of yogaX, I'm kinda yoga-shy if you know what I mean. *lol*

Diana - Lowmax is a popular one today. :) Congrats, by the way, for the 3# loss!!!! That's wonderful! You've definitely earned it! How's the back today?
What's ross? It is ross.com? Any other w/o worth the purchase there?

Laura - ME is a tough one! It is tough using heavy weights with Cathe. I thought I would be able to increase more after doing the X, and on some of them I have, but others..... She is just pure tough!
I can so relate to your salt kick. I get those days when I go from a salt food to a sweet food, than back to salt and sweet, salt, sweet..... I hate those days!! But, sometimes ya just gotta give in. I don't have those roller coaster days near as much as I used to, but they do still happen at times.

Cathy - Where are you?

Good night all and chat with you tomorrow
