I know Karla--how can I not feel the beaming rays of support?

Catching up with Tuesday's craziness. . . .
I don't know if I drank too much coffee or if someone put some crack in my lunch, but I was working out with a friend and we both had some insanely high energy levels, so read on and know that because of THIS workout, I was completely FUBAR today and had to limit myself to a mere 30 minute semi-brisk incline walk on the treadmill (3.6mph, 7%--almost unbearable):

W.U. on Step-7 minutes, fast pace with 8 db's and 2.5 lb ankle weights
(which, like total morons, we forgot to take off)

100 Jumping Jacks

(Alt. Set)
Swiss Ball Hip Thrusts/Legs Straight 2x12
Flutter Kicks/Arms Extended Overhead with 10 lb. plate 2x12
Swiss Ball Perpendicular Plate Press 2x12x25 lb. plate

60 Plyo Legs-either-side of 8" step Hops

We did the following 6 exercises to failure:
Crab Walk: 3 min.10sec.
Isometric Push-up Hold: 2 min.20sec.
Single-Leg Plank Extension: 1:18(R), 1:07(L)
Abdominal Hang: 46 seconds
Wall Squat: 2 min.7sec.
Abs. Crawl: 37 "steps" on hands dragging 10 lb. weight plate across floor (medieval torture, let me tell ya)

30 Alt. Lunges w/15 db's

20 Jump Squats

Pilates 100 x 2

Cooled down/Stretched like Crazy!

So, feeling pretty beat up today and figured I better take a day or so to think about my sanity. Not helping that my husband has chosen today to be King of the Jerks. Heading down to eat some lovely salmon and hope the healing powers of Omega-3 help ease my soreness and make him appear more likeable!
Sweet workout LoriAnne! Its funny you mention the omega-3's. I was telling a girl at work all about fish oil and all its benefits. She said maybe if she gets some then our coworkers wouldn't get on her nerves so bad. I said fish oil may have magic powers, but I don't think it can make annoying people not be annoying anymore. But let me know the results of your personal research study.
