ACMESkydiver 0 #26 August 7, 2008 Now for my update: the good, the bad, and the ugly! Saw the lowest weight I've seen on the scale in a few years this morning (yippeee again!!) and I just got back from a solid workout -1 hour combination of my fast 30's and treadmill work. Now for the bad...well I couldn't stop eating when I got home, dammit! I had some fiery habenero Doritos (only crushed bits left in the bag, but I ate about 1/4 cup worth.) I ate a 100 calorie Hostess carrot cake thingy. I ate 2 tiny lil dark chocolate bon-bons that my sister in law made (she SWEARS they are fairly healthy! ?) and then... ...the ugly. I just ate a whole damn Baby Ruth candy bar that had been sitting in the dang pantry for about a week. I don't know who the hell threw that thing in there, but damn my lack of will power! Edit to add: but no worries! I ate VERY well the rest of the day, and I'll do some crunches and push ups later tonight before bed. ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.

ACMESkydiver 0 #28 August 8, 2008 Today's the 7th! Did ya finish out this workout week strong? I did my evening step and lift class and she damn near KILLED us tonight! I was joking with her after class asking if someone had pissed her off and she was taking it out on us... ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.

tigra 0 #30 August 8, 2008 I did about 45 mintues on the elliptical plus abs! I can always tell when my Zumba class is going to be extra tough if I see the instructor working out BEFORE the class. That gives her lots of energy which she is happy to share with the rest of us! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bluepill 0 #31 August 8, 2008 Whats a Zumba class? BP Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tigra 0 #32 August 8, 2008 Zumba is a cardio dance class to Latin music- anything from classic Salsa to Reggaeton. They combine fitness moves like lunges and crunches with more traditional latin dance steps- salsa, mambo, cumbia, etc. Its a ton of fun! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

guppie01 0 #37 August 8, 2008 The pain is minimized (with glutamine), but I was really slow today - had very little energy. I'm not sure if my body is trying to catch up from the shock, or if my lovely allergies are weakening my body - or both. 1.5 mile run reverse squats with leg kicks (45 ea) hop squats (200 feet) sprint runs (20', 40' 100') 3 ea push ups (30 ea) ab work band work (arm curls/lifts) think that's it. I'm ready for the weekend.... g"Let's do something romantic this Saturday... how bout we bust out the restraints?" Raddest Ho this side of Jersey #1 - MISS YOU OMG, is she okay?

tigra 0 #38 August 8, 2008 Allergies tend to drain me, so my guess is that its a combination of both and it will pass as your body gets used to the increased activity and new allergens in the air. Looks like you managed to get in a pretty good workout anyway. Good going! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
guppie01 0 #39 August 8, 2008 Yeah, last night the allergies were so bad I was worried I was going to have a major attack (I have anaphylactic attacks) so I dosed up on benedryl before bed (which probably also attributed to the energy level). I managed to do it all, but much slower than the rest of the group.... There is a 17 year old girl in the group who is in HS track and ROTC - girl can run circles around me (blech ~ makes me feel old LOL). I feel bad b/c I slow her down, but our trainer is usually pretty good about giving her harder reps than the rest of us to keep her challenged. Today I felt like the lil engine that could. I want to be that strong effecient steam engine though. Onward and updward right??? g "Let's do something romantic this Saturday... how bout we bust out the restraints?"
