Fit to be Bride
4 months until wedding, so that puts a goal in sight for me. Started a new phase in my training with goal to lose about 10lbs. 5 might be ok if I find more of it is muscle than I think  I'll call it corrective fat loss as it's still written by Bill keeping in mind the weaknesses I still need to adress and make sure don't fall to the wayside. I'm not as concerned about being able to run as I am being able to shed some fat w/o running. So EST work will be some bike intervals and some band circuits/EDT/complexes.
based on this morning's workout, I can already feel the fat meltin' away
Will post workout later, must run for now!

So today was foam rolling/mobility warm-up
Workout A (75 secs rests between each exercise)
1a) BB SS 2x15 x 55lbs
1b) BB row 2x15 x 55,60 lbs
first leg first BB SS I thought weight was too light. 2nd leg and 2nd set, it was plenty  Was able to up the BB Rows though...must be less time under tension since not a unilateral movement. Thought I'd be stronger with legs than rowing
2a) low cable pull-through 2 x15 x 80lbs
2b) Standing DB press 2 x 15 x 20lb DBs(ea)
good weights here, 2nd set harder than first. Heart jumping out of chest
3a) DB bench press 2x15: 30lbs (ea)x12, 25x15
3b) Med grip band chin-up: 1(sans band) + 8 Purple band+6 Purple+Red, 15 P+R bands
whatta finisher
had to go to dentist, so have to do targeted exercises tomorrow with EST work. left panting and remembering that intensity feeling I once had.
Still think it's weird but the corrective programs at first were very CNS challenging...less intense but somehow wore me out quickly..thinking cause it made so many of my weak muscles work. This one was pure intensity and close to that runner's high feeling
food in check today although haven't offically counted calories yet

what are your imbalances? Did you meet with bill in person?
I'm full of questions, so....is that really you doing the 1 arm pushup and can you do a whole one in both directions? I bow down!

Good luck on the program Cappy! It's good to have a definitive target date in mind.
I noticed the other day that Craig is still using some of your quotes in his blog. Need to have Craig/Bill get together for a TT+corrective workout!
Good luck, we'll be watching!

Cappy! I love that you used that photo as your avatar! I said that when the photo was taken! It looks great.
I also agree that the title of your log rocks.
I'd wish you luck with your program, but it has nothing to do with luck and everything to do with hard, consistent work. I know you'll meet all your goals.

Good luck, darling! You will do great! I am excited as a puppy that "corrective fat loss" exists! Oh my! I need that, once I get my *** straight

Thanks for popping in, y'all. Guess a catchy title works. When I thought of it yesterday I couldn't wait to come home and start my new log
Wedding is Sep 2nd, but dress altering needs to be soon
lauren, I'm doing a band assisted p-up in the avatar. galya's skills photo skills make it pretty hard to see the band.  Soon I'll switch it to Lisa's pic of my 405 deadlift :p
today was morning bw circuit after foam rolling/mobility/activation exercises (new this time, plank, side plank and bird dogs)
3 rounds of 30sec each followed by 2min rest
jumping jacks
burpees
alternating lunges
push-ups
squats
still owe my targeted exercises from yesterday
