I would be careful to put malicious intent where you certainly cannot be sure of. Just sayin' … I mean, sure it comes off kinda pissy, but truly the problem is yours, not his. You missed class, and that's that. I'm just not sure it gets you anywhere to be mad at him when you made your choice. Don't get me wrong, I'd feel the same way… but end of the day taking responsibility and control (and actually, blame) will be good for you. easier said than done, sure.
(And yes, I did just come off colossally bitchy and superior there, didn't I? It's a gift. I know you're impressed, no need to hide it.)

Then went home and cooked:
Sausage and Peppers with Turkey Sausage for hubby
My favorite veggie soup!!!! This time i added lots of turkey breast for a LOAD of the protein that I can't seem to get enough of in my macros.
I also have more turkey and more ground turkey to cook. Yay!!!
Either way, I will win...I am a Capricorn, stubborn as hell and twice as determined...so...he's in trouble, and my grade will be an A...oh yes it will.
Oh, truer words have not been spoken!! And, I am the same way! So far, holding on to a 4.0 because I'm stubborn and determined, dammit!
Umm does having peppers in it make it a veggie soup?
Oops...I kinda started writing a list and then...didnt...hehe...I made the sausage and peppers and THEN a veggie soup for me... But...maybe I should try making the sausage and peppers into a soup.....hmmmmmmmmmm...a little chicken stock......some more garlic and onions...it could be done............

Weird...I know...but fun and at least I did the tire flips!! I was so much more tired than I was the last time I had done them. I can't wait go have my endurance back again.
Hey thanks!! Hubby says I have a freakishly strong back...I guess so!
Today did some speed bag for ten-fifteen mins and then cardio on the elliptical. 25 mind, intervals for the first 15 and then just some steady state. Since I have my (incredibly boring wanna shoot myself in the face) oceanography class tomorrow night I won't make it to the gym so I had to go today!!! You all know I'd rather be made to do jumping jacks naked in the middle of the gym rather than go back to this class...? Ok...sorry for that visual...but it's so true!!!

All I can say is I'm glad I got that Gatorade this morning...lol! I'm starting to feel my cardio come back...last week I'd have died trying this workout. The punisher seemed pleased as well. Several guys standing around made comments about not wanting to ever piss me off during my ball slams...so I must be getting better! YAY!!
Note: Picturing your tool of a professor's head during the ball slams really helps motivation.
Sorry your toolish professor is not only a dick, but a boring dick.
Thinking of including ball slams in workout...can think of a few faces to slam....
THANKS! It was SO much fun...I didn't like my cardio being blah, I am so looking forward to more of these ass kicking workouts. It just makes me FEEL better. And yeah...picturing the tool REALLY was a nice release...you HAVE to try them...so damn FUN!
I'm basically taking my own notes outta the book (since he "teaches" directly from it) and in class I surf da net and get other work done.
Hai dere! I am pretty low carb I guess. I go to the gym around 5 days a week usually, sometimes only 4. (and sometimes more!) The two days that I have a trainer are considered "training days" and I am supposed to have only 118g of carbs those days...which is a lot compared to my non-training days (the days I kick my own ass) which ranges from lifting to boxing to tire flipping to other normal cardio, where I am only supposed to have 63g of carbs. Now that's not to say I don't screw up my macros every now and then and go under...but I'm usually pretty good. So I guess the short answer was...yes...and thanks!
I can't imagine what my workouts would be like with 200+g of carbs...a beautiful thing I suppose...and I'll have to be a good girl and lose the fat so I can get to the point of actually knowing what that's like.
Or...I can just join an all women's tackle football league...and Alan will have to change up my macros....hehehe
Oh yeah and I forgot...also...my calories range from 1365 to 1685 on the workout days (and I currently weight just over 300lbs) because my thyroid is a no good lousy non functioning POS. But other than that...
Just stopping by to say 'hai'. I'm always impressed by your workouts with Charlie. As much as I can sometimes push myself, I know it's not as hard as you go.

Hai Anne! Thanks...but there's no way I'd get half of it done without him standing there...it comes down to a matter of not letting him win!!! I'm too competitive for that...
Wednesday: Weird....Speed Bag 15 mins and then:
Chest Press
45lbs x 6
45lbs x 6
50lbs x 6
50lbs x 6
55lbs x 6
Then I felt too tired to proceed into the rest of a weight workout, so I tailored it to some cardio with intervals. 30 mins, first 15 intervals, elliptical.
Thursday's Workout with Charlie the Punisher:
(apologies in advance for the weird descriptions of the things we did!!)
Once again, he lives up to his name and does not disappoint...also this workout took place outside...and it was humid and already 78 degrees at 10:30am!!!
Bosu Ball Step Ups x 20 each leg (but of course)
Standing on bosu with stretchy cable thingie (very technical fitness equipment term) attached to the fence, arms in Pallof press position, mini squat holding arms out, then twist to opposide side of fencekeeping arms extended the whole time x 15 each side (Whilst doing these I am simultaneoulsly thinking damn this sucks and why did I introduce him to Pallof Presses???)
Standing on Stretchy band thingie, mini squats and explosive curls x 25
Bosu Ball Step Ups x 20 each leg
Stretchy band thingie attached to fence again, standing on bosu again, this time mini squat, one armed fly to center, then twist to the side x 15 each side

Sideways Sledgehammer hits to tire x 15 each arm

Pad Training: Left, Right, Hard Right x 25 Left, Right, Left Hook, Right Hook, Right Hook, Left Hook x 25
Overhead Sledgehammer hits / mini squat to tire x 15 each arm
Sideways Sledgehammer hits to tire x 15 each arm
Bosu Ball Step Ups x 20 each leg
Tire Flips x 20
50 Ball Crunches
And then we went back inside the gym and I crawled up the stairs and did another 30 mins of cardio on the Precor 100i!!! YAYYYY!!!
This morning, my forearms are KILLING ME. Sledgehammer...no doubt. I do look forward to more of it tho...my legs and abs are also a bit sore, and I haven't been sore in awhile. After awhile, I was training so much for so long I wasn't getting sore really...it's nice to think I finally gave my body enough of a break that it had time to heal...so I can bust it up again!!
On another note...I am being EXTREMELY unhappy with my weight. I am at 313.8 this morning...and whereas I know my rings do not fit and there is some bloat going on...I am still having heart failure at the sight of ANYTHING over 310. I am going to re-examine Alan's last plan...and try to break it down again and RE-Plan my foods and tighten up on the macros. Since vacation I have just been dreading logging and counting...I don't know why. Maybe because I have been logging for over a year now...and I barely take a logging break? I don't know what it is...but I need to snap out of it... I was just starting to really get my food in order and learn how to keep it in check, and vacation kind of killed it and I feel like I have to re-learn it all over again.
I got pretty lax over the summer...I was still tracking but my choices were less then stellar. I was super motivated to kick it in the ass after Labor Day, then I got sick. Boo. Don't be too hard on yourself...you are working hard both diet and exercise wise!
And I agree about wondering what it will be like to workout with lots o carbs and fully fueled bodies. Watch out!
I have a LOT of trouble getting back on track... obviously... just look at my (pathetic) log... Hope you can find that nice balance of tracking and breaks!
