YOU KNOW IT!! FRIDAY IS THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!! I'll try to log on later and actually post in people's logs.....I am so behind!!!!!
I find that I've gotten worse about that lately. I'll see 30+ logs with updates, and I'll try to read them, but I make fewer posts than I feel that I should. Mainly because I have nothing to add.
Enjoy your two days off, and hope you get to sleep in a bit. I find that I'm so used to getting up around 7/7:30 that it's almost impossible for me to sleep past 8am on the weekend. Of course, I'm doing the M-F on purpose so that I'm not dead in the fall when I have to start getting up during the week.
Your schedule sounds exhausting - hope the weekend treated you well.
Yeah my schedule it pretty my killing my days!!!!
Anyway...I'm still around...lurking a lot...no time to write...or really catch up...
I have been going to the gym, just not logging the hours in here...the usual cardio and training still happening all thought in the past 3 weeks I've only been training with Charlie once a week...I just can't seem to get my schedule to cooperate with his!!! This Saturday I'm training...so it will be the first week I will have trained twice with him. Hopefully I will have some energy!!!
Anyway...still at work...here since 7am...hoping to go home soon, If I can I'll write more later...
I miss you all...feel free to keep my log warm with kittehs, and comics, and handbags and shoes of course!!!!!!!!!
So I know I've been MIA around here, I am still working out just haven't had time to log...my summer schedule is hell on wheels and I've just just about enough energy after working 7-6 to go to the gym, come home eat and drop dead...soooo....this past Saturday I got some fun in...so I thought I'd share:
Damn girl - you flipped that thing so many times!!! My first (only) time, I only got 5. Jason had said I would do 10, but after 5 we both knew I was DONE. Not sure how big that tire was, but... I miss it. Stoopid teenage vandals...
You look smaller to me - how's the weight/diet/measurement thing going (since you're not updating as often)?
I was thinking of you today and glad to see your update.
Love the tire-flipping. Who is your cheerleader? I don't know if putting your knee up is part of it, but I think you should switch to the other leg on the way back (can't have the bootyliciousness getting lop-sided)

Hey girl. I already commented on your awesomeness over at Facebook, but I wanted to let you know that I am working on getting my favorite SIL Pelly over here and I am using you to inspire her--she needs to lose about 100 lbs. Wanted to let you know what a great role model you are!
Wow that is badass.... Am wondering though if it made your low back sore. I don't see how you can not round out the back flipp'n like this. Here's hoping all is well. And I agree with the hamster again (second time tonight)... You look smaller.

Are you following me around, kissing my furry butt???

Thanks...it was FUN! I actually flipped it 16 more times after that, after some pad training...
I have been weighing every day as usual...but haven't measured since June, it's time for more pics and some measuring definitely! Thanks for reminding me...8) I don't know if I am smaller...I don't really feel any smaller at this point, but my clothing is fitting nicely...so who knows! Maybe it's just the black outfit...

Lol...I'll try to keep the sides all evened up! The cheerleader is actually my trainer and the gym owner...his name is Charles...I call him Charles the Punisher.

You have to try it...it's really a lot of fun! I had more fun with the second round since I knew what to expect and how to go at it!

Thanks gals...I was trying to prevent burnout...myself and my trainer...after so many months you don't want them to get bored...and I surely didn't wanna be bored...and since there's only so much I can do INSIDE the gym...I thought...how about outside???

I was expecting the same thing, but my lower back was actually completely fine...oddly enough...the ONLY things that were sore...were my forearms??? Weird...I do notice that on the second pass, I start to use more back and less legs, that's when he started yelling at me to get my butt down...so I will try to be more conscious about that today when we do it again!!!

"As far as (healthy) eating, either do it, or don't. Same issues repeated over and over is just insanity. We either commit to the endeavor or pay lip-service to it. This is the hardest part of the whole process, and it needs to be practiced more than the actual physical training. It's mind training." ~ Matt Thorne

And what a good idea to start getups from the bench. I'll have to try that.
