Xtreme Workout Upper Body, 25 min. - done
Shorter dog walk (rain), a mile? don't really know - done.
9 burpees (doing sarges's no excuse and no whinning bootcamp #19 on this forum). They just put up another challenge . . . 100 crunches, pushups or mountain climbers 3 days in a row. Yikes! Gonna give the crunches a go.

SBD ... I LOVE Zuzana and bodyrock.tv! If you have a Facebook page subscribe to her. She posts workout videos nearly everyday. I've done some and they totally and completely kick-***.

Grrrr! What is wrong with me?!? http://www.smileys4me.com/getsmiley.php?show=2137 I am having the most difficult time getting started with my exercise program again. I know it's a busy time of year, but that is no excuse. Look how great you are all doing.

I just got off the phone with my sister and asked her to work out with me M-W-F until the end of the year, just to get me going and in the habit again. She agreed, so we start tomorrow. NO MORE EXCUSE!!!

sandcar, way to make a plan to make it happen! Let us know how things go tomorrow. :D


Sorry I haven't been posting... I had a procedure on Sunday and wasn't allowed to exercise leading up to it, and I have been in pretty rough shape since and haven't been able to exercise at all. Today is the first day when I feel like I'm finally moving toward feeling better - which means I can mostly stand up straight and walk like a normal, if slow, person, lol. Anyway, I will get back to the exercise I'm allowed as soon as my body can handle it. :)

My exercise plan for today: Rest!

Scale is still stuck (164.2 again! :mad:), I've been exercising more in the past 2 weeks than I have in a long, long time. If there is any truth to microtears in muscle caused by exercising that can account for water retention, well, I'm testing it out. Maybe with the day off, I may see a drop over the weekend? :?:

Then, I have just one 20-minute intensity workout to do tomorrow to complete my weekly goal. :cool:

loose seal 12-09-2011 12:28 PM

Goldfrost - I always find that when I do intense workouts or weights, the scale literally doesn't budge until I take a day or two break. Then pop, it drops. I'm convinced it's the muscle holding onto water. I was going to slack today but then realized if I did that then did an intense workout tomorrow, the scale wouldn't drop Sunday morning. So that gave me the incentive to kick it today and I'll do yoga tomorrow. Good luck and enjoy the day off!

Xtreme Kickboxing, 40 min. - done

Am off to do Pilates and crunches. Possible dog walk today but not sure. My left big toe hurts . . I think I sprang it! Who does that? :dizzy:

One and done! Tomorrow rest day. Aahhhh.
