Ironically, I am home with Makenna today for some similar issues. The girl is running a fever and has it coming out both ends, primarily the rear one.
So, I am stuck in Dora the Explorer hell. At least I have the old laptop or I may have scratched my eyeballs out by now.
Get better!
Oh and the douchbag comment nearly had me in tears, LOL.

Feeling somewhat better today. Don't worry, if I have to check myself into the hospital for liquid IV's, I will be 100% for our trip this weekend!

I'm sorry you are feeling pukey. Nothing worse that feeling like death warmed over when you want to work out.

I completely agree--less than a week after I got the flu shot, I came down with a weeklong bout of respiratory illness. Hmm.. isn't that what the shot is supposed to protect you from? There have been similar news reports here that they "guessed incorrectly" on the strains. Oh, the marvels of medicine.

Thanks girl! I tried to get back on today, but it didn't want to roll with me.

I hope you feel better soon. Being sick sucks!

Thanks! It totally does and it's even worse as we are coming into these first few beautiful days of sunshine and semi-warmth.

Well, woke up this morning feeling still less than 75%, but went through my morning routine hoping to shake it out. Trained w/a trainee for an hour, and felt okay. Once she finished, I thought, "okay, you're up, you're here, let's see how you really feel." So, I jumped on the treadmill and did some light sprints to warm up. Ran at 7mph, 4% incline for 45 seconds. Got to the third sprint, and about 35 seconds in, my stomach indicated it was not happy with what was going on. After I returned to my workout room, I thought I would at least attempt to get in a light weight set, but it was pathetic at best. Was shaky, had horrible balance, and was constantly fighting the cold sweats.

One-Armed DB Snatch-1 x 6 each x 15, 1 x 8 each x 20, 1 x 7 each x 25

DB Single-Leg Rom. D.L.-3 x 8 each x 25 dbs
Barbell Bent-over Row-1 x 6 x 55, 1 x 6 x 65, 1 x 6 x 75

DB Single-Arm Overhead Squat - 3 x 8 each combo x 15/25 db's
DB Incline Bench Press- 3 x 7 x 25 db's

Didn't have enough energy nor strength to attempt the planks and knew that if I even thought too hard about the Body Weight Matrix, I would have to be taken out of there in an ambulance.

Taking it easy for the rest of the day and plan on doing an abbreviated repeat of one set of this workout tomorrow and will finish with the planks and evil body matrix.
