I'm so vein.... you probably think this log is about me

[bigDman]

Nice workout!

[lance02]

That's awesome weight on your front squats -- I find heavy weight on these is painful in the wrists.

[tkinsley]

Thanks, Paul and Lance! My problem with them is the bruises on my anterior delt area. OUCH. Chest is very sore today, too....

Ran this morning but only 24 mins--left hip pain and shooting rt ankle pain. DAMN DAMN DAMN. Finished on the bike.

The treadmill and I just do not get along. Guess I'll be taking it to the streets.... hopefully the bad guys are all in bed when I run and/or the wind is blowing AWAY from me so my mace aim isn't an issue.

[stingo]

Nice workout, especially on the first day. You use a regular barbell when you front squat? (My gym has none, so I used the functional trainer when I did mine...)

[tkinsley]

yup, regular BB for me.

Today:

Explosive w/o:
Sumo DLs 135
one armed bench push ups

King DLs
Inverted rows

Seated db laterals 12#
Seated calf raise 105

Done!

[tkinsley]

Rack pulls 225
Incline DB press 50

Front squats 125
Seated OH low cable row 110

Tabatas on the TRX

DONE.

[gobbla]

Getting strong there girly. Keep it up.

[lance02]

Impressive!

[bigDman]

very strong front squat

[tkinsley]

Thanks, guys! You should see my shoulder bruises. Holy shyte!

So I'm posting it here... I wanna do a PL competition! Even just a local yokel one. I mentioned it to Bip and I assume my program may change a bit to reflect this. The only problem I see is that I am going to pack on more fricking muscle, and I am carrying ten lbs more of it than I was three years ago.... I do not want to look like an American Gladiator type, ya know?

Good thing my husband is not intimidated by strong chicks.

[bigDman]

Sweet go for it...

and how much do you weigh now... It really depends on where you fall between weight classes

(97, 105, 114, 123, 132, 148, 165, 181, 198, 220, Heavyweight)

How 'bout you send any of that extra muscle you don't want over this direction?

I'll fall between the 132 and 148 classes. Does that mean that I will be in the 148 class? What kind of numbers do I need to be ready to move?

Thanks, Paul!

Tina

well those are the weight limits. So if you are above 132 you will be in 148 so you can weigh up to 147.99 lbs. You could drop down to 132 or gain some more weight and become more competitive at 148

Depending on what federation you lift under changes the World records.

GREAT resource, Paul. Thanks!

Heee, Greg... I am certainly TRYING to get some o' those... however, I appear to be putting on yet more muscle on the anabolic diet. Sometimes I wonder if there was a mistake in the factory with an accidental X chromosome switcheroo, LOL....

[tkinsley]

HA! Take THIS, bitches...

1A sumo dl 200
1B one armed bench push ups

2A king DLs bw +5#

Congrats on hitting 200 - 225 will fall too.

[tkinsley]

Well thankya thankya, Stingo.

Feel free, Chris... glad to inspire.

Forgot to post these when Victoria was here--this is what you missed, LD.



Muir Woods was pretty cool--every single rugged trail was posted for yellowjacket warnings so we stayed on the main drag. Here's the top of a ginormous redwood (which is really just a young'un)
