20's already? Damn and I'm bitching about 50's!



Posted by: katt

Cardio again this morning 30 minutes on the treadmill... last of 'indoor' cardio for a while... going up to set up hunting camp tomorrow. I'm crossing my fingers that I see that nice elk on opening day (saturday)..

weather forcast... high of 41-42... low's 20-21... brrrrrrrrr... I better bring ALOT of hand warmers..

One thing for sure... If I see antlers.. I"M SHOOTING



Posted by: yellowmoomba

Good luck!!



Posted by: katt

well, I'm back for a couple days... TOH went back up this morning.

Can you say brrrrrrrrrr? We were in our tent on Friday night and I think it got to around 11 degrees... the high that day was 40, which is perfect weather for elk hunting, but geezzz louise it was cold!

Got pretty close to a bull on Sat night, but he was heading uphill and we were below him with not enough light left to circle around, in the right direction so he wouldn't get our scent, before it was going to be dark but he let out some really raspy bugles,, it was cool.

I'm crossing my fingers for this next weekend, I'll be up there for 4 days



Posted by: sara

Yea, I don't get mafia wars.. and I am getting tired of farmtown.. I move on quickly

Today's wo

There are no such thing as stupid posts..

My goal,, just to stay healthy.. I'm 52, so my goal for building any more muscle without "assistance" is none to nil..

I'm 5'4".. right now a chubby 145 lb's.. ( a little winter over-eating and slacking at the gym during hunting season).. I feel the best when I'm around 130, which is pretty lean for me.

We are just getting back into it.... I just have to get back into the eating mode

ok so there is this group of 4 guys that have started doing a 'circut'... taking up the one and only squat rack we have every single day in the gym

so.... yesterday, we needed it to do legs,, so we got there right at 5:00 a.m... YAY! They weren't there yet But today... they got a clue... we got there at 5:01 and they were already there... taking up the GD squat rack again. It wouldn't be so bad if they used it continually... but it's using it for really light weights on the Oly bar,,, then running upstairs to do a little cardio,,, then running downstairs again... how totally annoying..

We have legs again on Friday, and we'll see who gets the rack

Are these clowns new to the gym or have they been there for a while? Perhaps you need to teach them some gym ettiquette.



Posted by: Pylon

Just go in late Thursday and take the bar home with you.

well, that would mean I would have to take all 4 bars home... I would, but I don't think I could get away with that... hey... maybe the front desk gal can hide them behind the counter.. lol ..

Easy... Get there early and hang a sign on the squat rack with an arrow pointing towards the Smith machine, "IF CIRCUIT TRAINING, PLEASE USE THE SMITH MACHINE APPARATUS. NON-COMPLIANCE WILL RESULT IN YOUR SORRY NEWBIE ASS BEING EJECTED FROM THIS GYM... THE MANAGEMENT".

When TOH is assisting you, is he curling you or upright rowing you? I just want to see if he is including that set in his workout journal.

no, but now that you mention it, my arms were already burnt out after asst. her. but on the up side, the view is always great.



Posted by: katt

Ham dominant leg day

BB Hack Squat bar-1x8, (55) 1x8 (65) 3x8

Romanian Deadlift (95) 1x8 (115) 1x6, 1x8 (straps) (125) 1x8

Lying Leg Curl (65) 1x8
HS seated leg curl (45) 1x8 (55) 1x8 (65) 1x8
ss w/
HS Seated Calf raise (25) 4x12

So our leg program is a random one from a Muscle & Fitness Magazine. The BB Hack squats we've never done before and like with any new movement, it felt awkward... but, I guess next time, not so much, huh?

Good thing, is we got to the gym before the dreaded circuit people!!
so we established our 'squat rack rights'

Funny thing is... they set up 2 of the oly bars on the floor and were doing their routine just fine.. so why the F*$k can't they do that every day???



Posted by: Pylon

Because that would show a little consideration for others...



Posted by: katt

Yeah Py, really

Saturday was 35 minutes jogging on the treadmill. Sunday was a day off.

Today

Back Squat (smith machine) (20) 1x8 (50) 2x8 (60) 2x8
TOH had the squat rack and I did mine on the smith machine in consideration of our time factor.

DB Lunge

Good Mornings (40) 1x8 (45) 1x8 (55) 2x8

Getting there is half the battle...



Posted by: katt

I'm trying,,,,,



Posted by: katt

ok so we got back from Vegas... then last week I had something going on and didn't feel well... had no appetite.. so I slacked at the gym...

I really noticed that the lack of food last week has really affected my weights... they totally sucked

BB Hacks (65) 4x10

Romainian Deads (95) 4x10

HS Leg Curl (45) 1x10 (55) 3x10

will do calves tonight with cardio - ran out of time

ok, so I had an issue with the BB hacks today... TOH said that I looked like I was tucking my butt under on the way up and kinda rolling my back.. ok, so I tried to come up straight but I found that the bar was getting 'stuck' at the bottom of my hamstrings just right above the bend of the knee.. so, of course at that point, I pushed my hips forward (tucking my butt under) to get the bar up to point A again... anyone else had this problem???



Posted by: katt

Cardio last night - jog/walk on the tread for 30 minutes


today's workout started sloooowwww... and my muscles seemed to burn out pretty fast..

so I'm totally sucked into 'The Biggest Loser' and last night I saw that it came on at 8:00... I'm saying "great! - lasts till 10...get some sleep" but... the first hour was a total repeat from last week THEN the next show was from 9-11... ok, well I made it till about 10:45.. yup.. totally missed who got kicked off.. I totally thought Miggy would be a total bitch, but really felt sorry for her when she had to have her apendix out

Posted by: katt

ok, so I'll post my workouts from Sunday and today tonight when I get home because I forgot to bring my log book in.

Saturday was cardio - 2 min walk, 2 min at 6 speed for running,, 15 minutes, then I did 2 min walk, 2 min 5 speed, more of a jog for 15 minutes.. then the remainder of the 45 minutes was various incline walking on the tread from 3 to 10 level at a slower speed 3.3 to 3.5

Anyway, last week, we slept in on Tuesday, so no workout,, so TOH said "let's just put our shoulder workout in with our legs on Sunday" so.. I was totally up for that, we both had the day off and we had time... well,,, holy mother of 'wtf were you thinking' kicked in after we did the legs and starting on our military press... Shit!... you could have drug me across the floor like a wet towel after we were done.. I had nothing left .. . that's the last time I listen to TOH's suggestions

Sumo Deads.........Great exercise

I didn't see any "Vegas Updates" in here. How was it? What were the highlights? Did you checkout any of the pool parties?

No pool when we went... it never got above 45 degrees.. brrrrrrr..

highlights - OH! taking TOH up to a club on top of The Hotel at Mandalay Bay ( we stayed there) and it was up a glass elevator, and when you went into the restroom stalls and sat down all the walls in front of you were glass too... AWESOME... I think it was on the 30-something floor...

Did I mention that TOH is deathly afraid of heights????



Posted by: JerseyDevil

Glad to see you are back on track in the gym!



Posted by: Curt James

Great journal!



Posted by: katt

ok so today we started the 15-20 reps... today was just 'ok' but I think at this rate we are more than likely going to have to finish our workouts at night
It's going to make for a long 2 weeks.. I'm already looking for a new program

Front Squats (65) 1x12, 3x15

Machine Hack Squats (90) 4x15

Sissy Squats 2x8 oh, yeah I didn't even finish these...

It doesn't look like much but it takes up alot of time... and we only have 50 minutes in the morning...



Posted by: Curt James

I admire anyone who can get to the gym in the a.m.

And to finish at night makes for a loooong day. Wishing you success and thanks for the inspiration-by-example!

I can't imagine doing 15-20 for every set of every exercise. You and TOH are better than me.

Today

Stretching - 5-10 min.

Standing BB OH press (40) 3x15, 1x9

Side Lateral Raise (15) 4x15

Reverse Pec Deck (40) 3x15

Shrugs (90) 1x8

When we started the workout this morning, my lower back muscles were really tight from yesterday's workout... those ones that run right along your mid-lower spine... well on the last set of Presses,, I bent over to the left to put the bb down and something pulled on that side of my back and almost took the wind right out of me side laterals weren't too bad, but when I got to the shrugs, just the movement of the exercise was more than I could handle, so I had to scrap them...

Came home, took a muscle relaxer and hopefully that will loosen things up, because it's not feeling really stellar right now....

Cardio planned for tonight after work, depending how the day goes.. may just be a hot tub night

I could be really mean here, but I won't ,,, the only thing you are physically challenged with is your calves, and that's genetic, so there's really nothing you can do about it..

Hot tub nights are good

I just might have to do some soaking this weekend.



Posted by: nadirmg

That's a great shoulder w/o, Katt.
I've never tried standing OH presses. I'm afraid my RC would die.

Standing Hammer Curls (20's ) 3x13

ok, this 15 rep stuff (aka shit) is definitely harder, more burning in the muscles going on.... but I guess you gotta switch it up a bit sometimes



Posted by: nadirmg

How often do you switch from low to high volume? On a regular cycle or just whenever you think you're plateauing?

Posted by: katt

I haven't done these in soooo long.. but I saw them in Deadbolt's journal..(I think it was his) anyway,, thought I'd throw them in. They felt really good

katt!

Some good looking workouts in here! I don't know how you're doing 15 repped anything, but power to ya!

Well Scar, we were suppose to do the 15's again this week, but we said 'screw it' and started a new routine

DB Bench (wu w/35's) 1x8 (52.5) 1x8 (45) 1x8 (50) 1x7

DB Incline Flys (30) 3x8

Bench Dips 2x15

Cable Push Downs (40) 1x8 (50) 2x8

Rope Crunch (57.5) 1x15 (65) 1x16, 1x20

Hanging leg raise (supported) 3x7 - I know.. I suck at this

1 plank.. lol

basically we are doing 3 sets of 8 reps, which after 15's this just flies by!! And TOH wants to do ab work at every workout.... so.... that's all I can say
