We hit 22 yesterday!
) it is sooo gross here this morn! Foggy n drizzly!! but I still got my butt outside early regardless! Im defintly feeling it this morning!! hehe its sad though- I know many guys at my gym that cant even come close to squatin that at parallel.... I dont think they give much effort er summin?? bc Im just a lil girl really!! is there such tunes like that??! its all about the performance of the move I guess.(omg I am sounding crazyyy now!!) 
Ill def PM you sometime today about all that! | Patrick- well I used to go a lil below parallel anyways...but now Im talking super deep. It did kind of bother me at first not being able to squat as much.... I dont know if it will come near to what I was squatin before.. we'll see.. honestly.. right now I dont care! its all about the performance of the move I guess.(omg I am sounding crazyyy now!!) |
Hey sweetie how are you doing?? Hey I'm doing my leggies tonight to--the deep squating! |
Originally posted by P-funk Nothing crazy there. I am still wokring on getting my ass to touch the floor. I am going to start doing yoga so I can stretch out an dopen my hips up more so that hoepfully I can hit the ground with my squat. |
im tryin to talk a friend into taking it for the summer! need to call him back later this evening! have fun with those deep squats too! Im feelin them today! ummm and dead 400? me thinks not!! thank goodness work is dead!! Im tempted to shave it all off and rid of my worries with it and this nasty weather! lol
| SF- my trainer?? ummm and dead 400? me thinks not!! |
well I called my friend back tonite about seeing if he wanted my apartment or not for the summer- he said hed think about it... ... now I HATE him!!! he was being soooo cocky and rude "oh well you'll just have to stay here this summer then" and he kept laughing at me that I was desperate to find a sublease.... (forgot to mention this d00d is a lil obsessed with me... bad way). anyways I was pissy!!! not because he didnt want to take my place, thats fine .. but he could have been a bit more sympathetic and not so dang rude!!! 
I was talking to a girl at work today about the ones she just got done! and I reallyyy think your overestimate my ability-Im just a lil girl eh.. a 400lb dead is a lil outta this world! 
you got it!
!! Hope your legs are feeling better!!
another rainy icky day out!!! my hair was such a mess at the gym! at least that cutie wasnt there!! those ATF squats are rockin!! 
Im sticking with them for quite a while! as for the videos.... we will SEE.. depends if I make it home.. daddys digi cam has a recorder thingy on it.. and all depends how brave I get!! leggies are a bit better today-but still pretty sore.. and trained hammies this morning.. so its not like they are going to be fully recovered anytime soon!! your butt almost comes to the ground, real deep!
the nerve of him!!!!! still waiting for a couple guys that said they would think about it and get back to me... tomarrows another day! sighhhh one guy wanted it for this saturday, that would be heaven!!! dont know why! but it sucks when they are sore and try to do sprints! hope yours get bettter soon too! "extreme" is far too big a word though! I MIGHT do some vids... all depends if I do make it home... I can only tape a bit if I move home to my daddy's! gotta get this darn sublease first! 
been busy and long day so far at work.. slowed down now! its FINALLY SUNNY today!! I rollerbladed to work this morning!! 
I dont think Ive ever had a boy drool over me! lol|

| If you drop 1 of those rowing motions, you'll increase your strength on the other two quite a bit faster. And more weight = more tension = more lean mean jen machine. |
| Interesting. Would the same kind of thing apply to me? Because I always do some kind of back exercise, then my high-set/low-rep exercise, and then another light back exercise. Basically 3 total back movements, should I cut one out? |
Hope everyones having a good day! ughhh Im stuck at work all day missing the nice weather! who the heck do you think I am some beast? LOL
Where do you work? Maybe you can enjoy your lunch break out in the sun
|
SF- me row 300?? who the heck do you think I am some beast? LOL hmmm so I should cut back a rowing? but then add in what? I always do 3-4 exercises for back. |
Well I heard back from that guy about my apt. tonite. he said he'd tell me tomarrow morning after church! but my friend was talking to him a bit more and she said shes sure hes going to take it... that would SO make my day!! I eve started cleanin junk out today!
I would recommend you do your back routine now, minus one rowing lift. And go heavier on the first exercise. More sets, slightly less reps and look to destroy yourself right out of the gates.|

|
| SF- Ok just had to clear that up, strength I want yes but with no more muscle gains! I can get rid of one of those rowing moves. so for the 2 following complementary back moves, what rep and set range should I aim for? |
Im working on putting together a new routine, I may come to you for some advice as well.
still no belt er chains
| SF- Ohhh I am by far not afraid to only hit minimal reps on lifts. I was lifting that way last summer for a bit. Thanks for the advice! Im working on putting together a new routine, I may come to you for some advice as well. |
blah what a rainy dreary bad hair day! lol! the walk to and from the gym was not the least bit pleasant... and the walk home was slow.. totally kicked my ass on leggie workout this morning! Ill get it someday I guess..........
I dont want to be a Monstar-I dont want to be big like Mike! (no offense to you Mike) strong like- yah I could defintly deal with that.
Im one very happy lil girl right now!! I was packing all this evening!! more packing time for me then!

Originally posted by atherjen Jiillybean/Stace- Thank you sooo much girls!!! Im one very happy lil girl right now!! I was packing all this evening!! my boss also told me that hes going to start the new guy at work tomarrow, so I dont have to work more packing time for me then!

LONG drive! but daddys got a heavy foot! I slept for a lil while after dark... got a ton of UNpackin left to be done!
Are you living in Truro now...cause if so I thought they had a gym I am WAY farther then Truro... ten hours from Halifax now.. you know Mt. Carelton?? Im 20mins from there... you can just imagine the area I'm in.. mountains galore! tons of sporting here, thats how come I grew up fly fishing and hunting! haha I am a true HILLBILLY! it worked! Merci Beaucoup! I hate folding my clothes! 
|
Originally posted by Monolith Glad you made it home safe and sound, Jen! What kind of equipment have you got at your house? |
so not NEAR enough weights at all! I have dumbells, cambered bar, small barbell, bench(move to incline). ummmm thats it. going to buy a squating rack, olympic sized barbell, buncha plates, more dumbells... and I think thats about it! dont need any machines or cables, I can make do without |
Never had a dresser? Dang.. I have a closet and a dresser! I didnt know you knew how to kayak, thats so cool. |
I've been kayaking since I was 7 or 8. bought my own when I was 11. I

Originally posted by atherjen haha well my closet always had shelving in it if I need it for my underwear and things that needed folding! HELL YEAH!!! I've been kayaking since I was 7 or 8. bought my own when I was 11. I it!!

it'll be a workout in itself just haulin it all out of the store! you enjoy your summer as well! sounds like your very excited with it.. did you start at the infirmiry yet? where I am now.... very very very minimal! Halifax was HUGE to me! lol!! I would LOVE to do something like that someday!! ohhhh.. I will! haha I'll write it on my list of things to do!
) -except unpackin U-haul its sooo sunny here today!! but windy and cool- it was 20F here last nite!! it was a riot!! had a great time! got real muddy! 
. Have you found a gym to train at? WHat type of job will you be looking for?
I sure could use some tanning weather though! found a gym? well the closest one is an hour away.. so Im upgrading my current weights I have here already(not NEAR enough weights) but I can still train at my old gym in my hometown 2X week. OR working down at the convience store OR caring for this older woman(5days/week-just cleaning, cookin for her) OR councelling at a Science outdoor wilderness camp for a couple weeks. not sure what one I will get. it probably wont be a long period job really.. as Im traveling to Texas in late June and then to NC me thinks!
AT least you have travelling to look forward to...Texas and NC in late spring will be perfect!
I had an AWESOME fun day!! learned how to dirtbike, then went out "muddin" Went fishing and got a bunch of trout! had a huge feast of them for supper with fiddleheads! but with the warmer weather I a sprinting junkie, and I tend to walk much more. as long as your enjoying it, thats all that matters! I feel the same about workin for the elder woman, much more appreciation can be learned and whatnot from that job... working in some store or waitressing again doesnt spark much of my interest. all depends on who hires me!
Good Luck finding a job! Your day in the mud and fishing sounds like a blast..sounds like you were in Texas..haha!!
I did have a fun day yestarday!! you guys go muddin down there? awesome!! let me guess, there are snakes in the mud too! you dont know what them are? hmm guess its just us Maritimer's delicacy! its basically a wild fern, but you pick it when its young-all coiled up-do we call them fiddleheads! SOOOOOOOOOO yummy!!! I ate a ton last nite!
had a SUPER day again!! I suckered daddy into getting my Kayak out today! it was soo windy on the water! but fun nevertheless! thanks! hope you are having a super day too! I LOVE my fiddleheads! I ate another huge feast of them tonite with 10oz. SALMON!! 
mmmmm soooo good! its not a birdie!! its a plant. tastes like....... umm.... a fiddlehead!
