Default Thurs. 1/10

Definitely feeling yesterdays workout! Woke up with some sore hammies (probably a bit too much incline on the treadmill)
Breakfast: 1 cup Quaker Oatmeal Squares Cereal with 1/2 cup skim milk

Snacks: 2 Vodka Tonics (with diet tonic to make me feel better about it --) 2 squares of dark chocolate

I justify the drinks by my hard workouts! LOL

Workout:
Warm-up 7 minutes on treadmill @ 3.5 mph, 3%incline with 2 lb. dumbbells.
90 second forearm plank with alternating leg raise.

~~~Rest 90 seconds~~~
2 minutes Step-up onto bench, alt. legs, w/12 lb. dumbbells, rest 45 sec

2 minutes Jump Rope with 2 lb. weighted rope, rest 45 seconds.
8 sets of Squat&Kicks-5 per side(set), alt. sides after each set, rest 45

15 Prone Cobras, holding last rep. for 30 secs.
10 Sidewinders (right & left twist=1 rep.)
10 Slow Coils w/ 8 lb. medicine ball
18 Kick-outs
30 Bicycles
10 Sidewinders
10 Slow Coils w/ medicine ball
20 Crunches with feet rasied off the ground.

Cooled down and prayed not to puke in the trash can! Felt awesome, and ripped in the core when I was done. According to my sport watch, which is unreliable at best, I burnt up a total of 587 cals. during my workout which last just under 60 minutes.

Now you see why I felt the need for the vodka tonics!

Tomorrow is weight day--YAY!

Default Friday 1/11 TGIF!

Couldn't be happier for the weekend to have arrived! I've got my exam on Tuesday, so this weekend I'll be doing some serious mental workouts to cram as much as possible. Feeling a little stressed, but chalking it up to worry about Tuesday and certain unpleasant people trying to bring me down. Just want to channel my avatar and give them the double finger salute!

Breakfast: 1/2 cup steel-cut oats, 2 Tbsp. granola, 1 Tbsp. flax seed,
1/2 cup blueberries cooked in mainly water w/splash of skim
milk. Activia yogurt, and waaaayy too much coffee!
Lunch: 6 oz. chicken breast topped with jalepeno, tomato, onion, fresh cilantro and 2 Tbsp. salsa over 1/2 cup brown rice. 1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese.
Dinner: 6 oz. salmon filet with spinach salad. Probably will end up eating 1/2 a whole-wheat pita to get some carbs.
Misc.: 1 protein shake
2 pieces of awful, sinful chocolate
10 unsalted almonds

Workout this morning went really well, despite the lingering soreness of my hamstrings. Focused on quads. and did some serious stretching before I got too intense.
Warm-up: 7 mins. treadmill @ 3.8mph, 2% incline
30 ball squats with overhead 8 lb. medicine ball raise
Workout: Squats/3 sets of 10:
75 lbs./explosive
95 lbs./slow lower-static hold for 5 seconds at mid-point
115 lbs./consistent slow pace, ended up doing 14 reps.

Push-ups/Seated Rows-Alt. 3 sets of 10 each
First 2 sets of Push-ups on floor, 3rd set done with feet on
8"step. Seated Row weights-42lbs., 50lbs., 57 lbs.

Step-ups/Jackknife-Alt. sets
3 sets of Step-ups counting right&left as 1 set onto bench
with 12 lb. dumbbells.
3 sets of 10 Jackknives.

Rested for about 90 seconds, then finished up with 1 minute
of Jumping Jacks, 1 minute of alt. Knee Raises, and 30 Jump
Squats.

Thought about doing a quick hanging abs. set, but realized
my core was a bit tender from yesterday's beating, so nixed
that idea.

I slept great last night, and have wonderful energy today (although that could be due to my massive coffee intake this morning). Picked up a new protein powder with better overall stats., so I'll be excited to see how that affects my lifting and recovery.

I am doing the NROL4W, but tweaking it a bit based on muscle soreness(the hamstring soreness I mentioned in 2 earlier posts). I also have to vary my workouts based on the work I am doing with my training clients.

In order to participate in this challenge, do I have to follow the NROL4W workouts to the letter? Did I read the original post wrong???

nope - you can do any program you like. two different things convoluted into 1 challenge - 1) a group of us committed to doing NROL4W the whole program and 2) a new years challenge to parallel the men's challenge
so now we have a 6 month challenge in which many of us are doing NROL4W and some are not -

Thanks for the clarification Lisa!
I was worried I was doing something wrong, but also couldn't help but feel damn proud of the workouts I have done this week.
