Exactly right! That's one of my fav's right now,, along with get xxx'd by j-kwon.. probably just because we are doing routines to those songs in my dance class...lol

Posted by: soxmuscle

the boots with the FUR!!! the whole club was looking at HUR!! and she hit the flow... ha...

I don't think it's a good song but it definitely gets me moving if I've got a few drinks in me.

Not familiar with XXX'd off the top of my head, but I'm sure I've heard it before.

Ahh Petey Pablo, haven't seen him in a song in a while.

I get that too. Recently tried it with squats as well - worked a treat!

Hope you enjoy boarding on Saturday - i cant' imagine doing that here. It's freezing. Brrr . . . .

Nelly started that company up, and while yes, you need to have a big fat black booty, the pants do do wonders in making some girls butts look better than they should..

Hmm

I need to get me a pair of those then . . . . .

Posted by: b_reed23

I can fill out a pair of applebottoms easy....guess I was "blessed" in that area.....

seriously though...my big ass is one of the few body parts that I am TOTALLY comfortable with....

Posted by: katt

I wish I was more comfortable with mine B.. lol ..

But if they make your booty look better than it actually does...I may have to look into it

very nice! were the standing bb presses strict form or did you push press a little?
Gawd...i have to admit..I love seeing a woman doing those....

...ok...maybe not as much as a woman in the butt blaster...you know...on all fours...sweating and grunting and...well, that's another story....

Posted by: katt

push press?? like bouncing at the bottom of the movement??? I don't believe I was doing that... but, then again...

Posted by: Burner02

yep...just dip the legs a couple inches and explode up, giving the weight just a teensy bit of momentum...
Its good to help kill the muscle. Get those last couple reps out....get it up...then resist it down, for say...count of 6 or so?
Good stuff.

Posted by: katt

Isn't that cheating though?

Posted by: Burner02

assissted reps.
Now...if u do ALL your reps like this...then you are going too heavy.
Its like doing negatives. Sort of.
Picture it: you are getting most of the weight up yourself, then u resist it down for a longer period than you would a normal count. Your last 2-3 reps.

Posted by: DOMS

Solid workout, katt. And great job on those DB Front Raises. That's a deceptively hard exercise.

Posted by: katt

Yeah it is... you think the db's are too light,,, then the burn starts kicking in.... lol

Posted by: Gazhole

Another great workout, i havent done Arnold Presses in years!

Shoulder workout is looking strong

How'd you like the planks?

Posted by: katt

I just started doing them... but they start burning after about 30 seconds.. lol

Posted by: Scarface30

looking great in here katt

those standing military presses are looking good!

as for those pants, if it's anything like those yoga pants...they are the devil in...well I don't know what they'd be in... their moto should be:

Funny.

Quick "Hello" Katt. Always surprised at how much iron you move

. The only women in my gym are running on treadmills or wriggling around on mats doing godknowswhat. Never lifting.

Just FYI... I had a crazy, hectic year-end (accounting) but I'm done now, so I'll be snoopoing periodically again!

Keep up the good work there, Muscles!

Posted by: katt

Yeah, most of the women at our gym are the same, only a small few in the weight area, and they stick w/the lower dumbbells..lol

Accounting.... isn't your work just beginning??? Or year end for the place you work at??

Thanks for stopping in!

Posted by: JailHouse

nice job. Arnold presses are my favorite shoulder move.

Posted by: SamEaston

Have you tried front raises with plates instead of DB's? They're great for a change and you end up gripping the thing like there's no tomorrow, squeezing the life out of it . . .. . . . . . . .

Amazing pressing strength Katt. Some things never change

Posted by: katt

I havent tried the plates Sam.. good idea there.

Yesterday was a snowboarding day for us... my son got me to do a few diamond runs... which I was practicing my sliding, somersaulting, whiplash reflex....lol....... needless to say today my neck hurts like the devil...

But I'll probably do it again next time....

As I was doing our workout today, when you sit on the end of the bench an lean back and get ready to grab the bar.. that last 4 inches just killed me.. lol...

Today's wo

Flat Bench (95) 1x6 (115) 1x6 (135) 1x3

Incline Bench (95) 1x6 (105) 1x6 (115) 1x4

Incline DB Fly (30) 1x6 (32.5) 1x6 (35) 1x6

CG Bench (75) 1x6 (95) 2x5

Skull Crushers (50) 1x6 (55) 1x6 (60)1x6

DB Kickbacks (22.5) 1x6 (25) 1x6 (27.5)1x6

When we went to do our skull crushers, there was the "dumbbell horder" couple taking up the seat, incline and flat movable bench... we didn't see them using the flat bench, just their towels & water bottles were on it, so I went over and asked if they were using it.....which the guy replied "yes"..

ok, so we hauled the straight bars all the way over to the other side of the gym to do our sets,,,, and the couple never did end up using the bench the entire time...

So why didn't they just put their shit on the floor like everyone else??... buttheads!

Posted by: b_reed23

how long did it take you to work up to benching 135 Katt?? I'm still hovering around the 100 mark...doesn't seem like I can ever make any progress with benching!

Some people just don't know what the fuck gym etiquette is.

I sometimes will throw my notebook on a bench if I'm around it, but I'd never expect to keep it there if somebody needed to use the bench. Asking them how many sets they had left, etc. couldn't have hurt, could it?

A personal fave...

Yeah, I guess I could have done that, but it was to the point that we were running out of time and had to step it up and get it done..

Fergie is good, this song is totally being "over played" on our local radio station right now....

We took an unexpected day off today... last night my neck pain was really bad, so I took a muscle relaxant and went to bed really early..

Doing much better today.... we'll be hitting it hard tomorrow as usual!

Snowboarding last Saturday.... I went down some steep runs that where icy... hence... falling like a rag doll down the hill....lol

Posted by: PreMier

my sister hurt her neck skiing. seems we're all getting fucked up

*oww.. hurts to laugh*

Posted by: katt

But it was fun, wasn't it????

Posted by: PreMier

i broke them on the first run down the hill.. so the rest of the time i was hurting and uncomfortable. but it was fun

Posted by: SamEaston

I remember the first time i tried snowboarding. I spent the whole time leaning back on my way down the slopes, which makes you go faster, until i crashed into the huge crash mats at the bottom of the slopes in a comedy, arms-outstretched manner!

Im sure i just spent the whole time feeling like i was stuck onto an ironing board

hey! yer benching a plate now? AWESOME!

Posted by: the other half

scar, just some advice. start working your calves now, because your first couple of times the hurt like a mofo the next couple of days. it is alot of fun.
you get to spend the whole day picking your ass up off the ground, trying to stand up while your board is going down hill. but dont let me ruin it for you.
you definitely get a good workout on your lower half.

Todays workout

Bar Curl (60) 1x6 (65) 1x3, 1x4

Incline DB Curl (22.5) 1x6 (25) 1x6 (27.5)

DB Curl (25) 1x6 (30) 1x6, 1x5

Cable Row (100) 1x6 (110) 1x6 (120) 1x2 (110) 1x1

Hammer Strength High Row (55) 1x6 (65) 1x6 (70) 1x4

Lat Pull Down (90) 1x6 (100) 1x6 (110) 1x1

SLDL (95) 1x6 (115) 1x6 (125) 1x4

My mood is bad today.. I'm tired, we had to switch our workout order around because the stations were being used. I'm grumpy, my weight is not going down... probably because I'm really not working at it... I couldn't get the dance steps last night no matter how hard I tried... that was probably it, I was trying too hard..

There... I have nothing good to say today, so whatever..... It'll be better tomorrow

Posted by: SamEaston

I can understand that Katt. It's so annoying when you've got a plan laid out of what you want to do when you get into the gym and there are people using the equipment who seem to have no plan whatsoever

Tomorrow is another day. A dance mat sounds like fun cardio though

Posted by: katt

Yeah it's fun... we have approx 10-15 minutes of "warm up" which my legs were litterly shaking after that, then 10 minutes of stretching... and actually only 35 or so minutes of actually learning new moves...

If you've seen the movie "Stomp the Yard" and the one guy was doing the whole body revolving move while his feet were in the same place.. we were kinda doing that yesterday, it's really awkward feeling at first, you think you're going to fall over...

Don't worry about it. It takes time for the movements to embed themselves in your system. Next time you do it you'll probably have it down fine.

Just like in the game rock band...I was playing medium mode on the drums and having a real hard time. I played it on hard a week later and had it down even better. w00t

you also continue to lift heavier weights than guys in my gym.

Posted by: soxmuscle

As dreadful as bad days are, they happen. Just be back and hitting it hard tomorrow and all will be well.

Posted by: Brutus_G

It always turns around no matter what. I have to go with fufu on how you lift more than some of the guys at my gym.

Posted by: goob

Both you and OH had bad workouts on the same day........

Interesting....

(Although i say it looks pretty good from where i'm standing.)

Dont beat ur self up it happins to all of us. Those incline curls are nice.

Well, on a positive note, the weights moved are pretty similar to your 1/15 workout and a few with higher weights this time, so you made progress even on a bad day.

yeah we got hit hard last night with a snow storm, but then it rained and now all the sidewalks are ice/slush which isn't fun to walk on/in!

another great bench day katt, 135 is awesome!!

Posted by: SamEaston

Incredible! 135 bench?? What are you eating to press that weight?? Also, respect to you on those DB Flys, wow. Heavy Flys make me feel as if my arms are gonna fall off!!

14 inches of snow, that's an awful lot. Don't tell me you're due any more ? We don't get snow any more here. We used to have a white Christmas every year when i was wee, but for about 15 years now there has hardly been any. No global warming eh

Yeah right!

Going to the gym after work (after 5) is pure meyham... we only go at night to do cardio..

Man i get pissed when there are more than 10 ppl in my college gym you must be very patient id be walking around trying to start shit.

Posted by: SamEaston

Im a morning person too Katt. However my gym only opens at 7.30am, and is actually pretty busy with people who exercise before starting work at 9am. Oh well, you just gotta do the best you can

Posted by: katt

Suppose to go this morning... but I had a cough attack for about an hour before our alarm went off, and was just getting back to sleep, so said screw it...

6-7 more inches of snow fell last night, we have a shitload.. OH started to shovel off the roof yesterday. Just read in the paper that the commissioners are deciding where to declare a state of emergency because of the conditions...

I think it may be time for a vacation somewhere lol

Posted by: b_reed23

I feel your pain Katt...we got a bunch of ice overnight...so no workout for me either

I was assuming that the fascia is 6 inches and trying not to go overboard.

In Boise, we've gotten about 1 and a half feet. Which, back in SLC, wasn't a problem. But here, they don't believe in plows, salt, or sand.

We're due for 4-8" tonight. So I guess we will get somewhere between 1 inch and 3 feet.

it ok, im alive. just got finished shoveling the roof.

WHOLLY FUCKING A!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by: Scarface30

that is a helluva lot of snow!! I wish we'd get snow like that...just last week it was -15 all week, at the end of the week we got some snow then it rained as much as it snowed, and now it has been +10 all this week...crazy Nova Scotian weather!

Posted by: Witchblade

No snow or anything here. In fact, no real winter here in Holland... Must have been five years ago we had a decent amount of snow.

Same here in London.

At home in Scotland there's been quite a bit of snow, especially up in the North in Aberdeen, but nothing in London so far even though it was forecast. It did rain for about 3 solid days though, and it was blowing a gale so the underground and overground trains went off for a while

I dunno - we get such halfhearted weather here. Christ - London would come to a standstill if we got snow like that Katt, that's amazing!

Posted by: katt

yeah not much snow here either. kind of depressing actually. we get cold spells and then warm wet spells, it is really weird. although up in Northern Canada last week they had a crazy cold spell, more so than normal. average temperature was I think -47 degrees (before wind chill) for the week. INSANE!

sorry for the journal whoring katt - getting back to the workout, that's a great workout katt

not feeling the greatest and you still come out with numerous PRs. excellent job!!

Posted by: the other half

she sucks!!!!!

Posted by: PreMier

i think i see those pics you posted.. kinda small..

Posted by: goob

Nice WO katt-mandu. Lots of volume, what I like to see.

Posted by: JailHouse

your squats and deads are vary impressive good job.

Posted by: SamEaston

Seconded on the Squats Katt - mucho heavy!

My PR is the same as yours on Deads though, i'm finally catching you up on something - even though you have a cold at the moment. Shake that off and you'll be off setting PR's like crazy again

Carbs are my friend too. I just ate a Pizza Hut takeaway with my flatmate. If heaven was delivered by motorcycle in a cardboard box, by a leather clad Eastern European, then i can die happy

Posted by: katt

Still a good workout Katt. How's the cold? You recovered yet?

Do you still have snow there? I bet your doggies love it huh!

Posted by: katt

The lower weights in the workout really didn't bother me today..

recovered - no - it's getting worse. Last night I was coughing, coughing, coughing... I'm going to try some different medicine at the store today..

Hopefully this doesn't turn into some brochitis bull crap...

Yeah, we still have snow - lots of it... the dogs do love it, although it makes quite a mess when they come in with snowballs all over their fur.. lol

Posted by: Scarface30

you can't win 'em all, but it still looks like you won that workout. very nice

I still don't get skullcrushers. I am not downing you for doing them but I will never ever do them again. my elbows pop and snap and grind and hurt when I do them!

Posted by: katt

hmmm. never had any problems with them.... I guess you're just getting old...

lol

Posted by: Fitgirl70

That's a lot of snow DOMS. I want snow

I'd settle for the snow Py is getting.

But nooooooo.......we got 70 degrees yesterday!

Nice workout Katt.

Try the Delsym Cough Syrup. It's the best. And also sleep with an extra pillow. Night time coughing is worse because you're lying flat. Hope you get to feeling better dear.

Posted by: katt

Thanks for the tip Fitty... I'll look for that.. I took Robitussin this morning and it did me no good at all... very annoying..

On a lighter note,,, I was suppose to show up for jury duty this morning, but it was canceled... I'm free for another 2 years... YAY!

Posted by: DeadBolt

zicam, sudafed, morin, and a cough syrup...my magic cocktail you'll be back on your feet in less then 2 days!

Posted by: Gazhole

Workout still looks good to me!

Perhaps you didnt get enough sleep or something? I always feel weak if i was up late the night before. Just cant concentrate on getting the weight up there.

I take my "magic cocktail".... drive to work, slump over at my desk in an antibiotic coma,, my phones ringing, my voice mails are piling up,, people are walking by looking at me whispering... " you think she's on drugs??" rumors running rampant throughout the office while I'm totally oblivious to my surroundings......

Yup,,,,

workout was ok, I had a notion I would tire out fast today, my cold seems better today, less congestion, but when I'm sick I tend to go for the comforting soup instead of lean protein, so my calorie intake has been minimal the last couple days.

That's funny - my Aunty has a Cocker Spaniel and she has to tie his ears up if he goes out in the snow because he ends up with massive wads of snow on the ends of them, like big snow earrings! He just looks around like WTF is that on my ears??

It's funny as hell

Posted by: goob

Nice pressing katt!!!

You must be heading up snowboarding again soon, with that dump....

Posted by: katt

Calf Raise #7
3x15

this one actually went faster than I thought it would. The squats were a little shakey on the first set, but got better.

Posted by: SamEaston

Again, amazing squats Katt. Do you use a pad on the bar while you're doing them? I do and i think that's why i prefer front squats because the pad makes me think the bar is going to fall right off my back (which makes me lean forward). With Front Squats i can stay much more upright. Oh well, good job Katt-tastic!

Shame about the boarding. Couldn't you just go out into the street with your board on, hold on to the back of your car and get OH to drive around the neighbourhood?? We could call it snow-jet skiing

Posted by: katt

haha - yeah I was thinking the burm in front of my house is so large, I could probably head off my roof, hit that and slide right into the front burm by the road... lol

Your leg workouts look especially strong at the moment. Loads of compound movements in one session for lower body is the only way to go.

And that way is known as the road to vomitcity.

Posted by: katt

todays wo started started good, went to shit, then got good again.. I am so sick of freaking coughing all the time..I finished my z-pak and I hope this crap will go away now..

Skull Crushers (50) 1x6 (55) 1x6 (60) 1x6 - these were a little too easy, I should have upped the weight... shoulda, woulda, coulda

DB Kickbacks (25) 1x6 (27.5) 2x6

Cardio tonight

We booked part of our vaca last night, a few nights at "couples swept away" which is right next door to Hedo II,, you can get a day pass into it for 75 bucks..lol We figured, get a good room for a couple days, then we'll switch it up to one of the cabin types and check out the city and local food for the next few days... that way it won't break the bank.. I think the Red Stripe beer is only a buck or so.. lol and you know the rum should be cheap

Guys big bite is funny to watch I think... I love all his "bling" lol

Posted by: Pylon

Guh...Can't stand Giada, am very neutral on the other two.

I'm and Alton guy. Also enjoy Irvine. The rest are kind of hit and miss for me.

Posted by: katt

Irvine??? I am guessing you like Alton, because he goes into great detail...

Posted by: Pylon

Pretty much. He's a teacher more than a cook, which I dig.

Irvine does "Dinner Impossible." Fun stuff.

great workout katt, your benching is still coming on strong. better than a lot of people I see at my gym

Thanks Scar

We booked a few nights at "couples swept away" in Negril.. it's an all inclusive spot right by Hedo II, so I guess we'll be visiting there also. The other 4 days we are going to "ghetto it" and just get some cabin type accomodation on the beach and eat cheap street food....lol
