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.

I ate a good 7 ozs. of salmon and yet still wanted to smack him in the mouth. I hate to place blame on a lovely piece of fish, it was satisfying and delightful--two things I cannot say about him!

I know! We are planning on getting together this weekend and I'm thinking I should slip her a Valium before she gets any hare-brained ideas.

Thanks! And thanks for stopping by my log!

Okay, I truly believe I may have broken my abdominals! LOL
I am experiencing the deepest pain along my obliques that is unlike anything I have ever felt. I have this crazy, puffy awful swollen thing protruding along my mid-left side. It makes me totally re-consider my pereceived core strength and endurance. Or, on the other hand, maybe I'm just now finding exercises that really hit me where I need to be hit?
Any thoughts out there?

I really know nothing about hernias....but, something about the word "protruding" made me go there for some reason??? Take care of yourself!!

Hmm, that doesn't sounds good at all... Jane mentioned a hernia... might want to get chaked outand make sure you don't have one of those.. I've seen the surgery to get them repaired, and while it's not bad as far as surgeries go, you still don't want to have to get it done... so I'd go get it checked out....
Hope you feel better and it turns out to just be the fact that you're kicking some major ass! :-)

I don't know much about hernias either (but that had definitely entered my mind!) and had always considered them an affliction limited to males! I should have clarified that the swollen area is pretty much a mass of "rubbery" feeling nodules that is roughly the combined size of a small canteloupe. Again, I don't know much about them, but remember a friend's husband that had one and it was located in his low abdomen and was more of a hard golf-ball thingy.
I am paying really close attention to how it feels and the level of acute soreness. Obviously, I am not even considering working out today and if the swelling/pain has not subsided by tomorrow morning, I will be stopping by my Dr.'s office first thing. I usually end up going in there once every couple months, so I'm sure he already thinks I'm a hypochondriac (which I probably am)  . So, I want to wait and see if it is something that truly warrants a visit and not just another reason to support the Corporate Medical Machine.
I'm eating really clean and light today figuring I don't need to add insult to injury and plan to take it easy and hope for recovery.
I'm hoping I can chalk this up to being a psycho and not being able to tell myself when too much is too much. I'm an addict!!

Just to put you at ease, um, that ain't normal.
My brother had a hernia from birth just below his sternum, he could push it in and out LOL!
Sore, swollen, cantaloupe... see doctor!
