Jodi, what happened to your back??
I injured myself a few weeks ago doing Good mornings. It doesn't hurt me anymore but now I have instilled the fear.

I know what that fear is like Jodi! Be careful, I want you competing!


I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...

So you liking so far?

I must say I am enjoying, I break a good sweat, and I like the constent tension I feel

Cardio before or after weightlifting?

If your going to do Cardio on a workout day do it before lifting weights.

I was always told to do it after, that way it's like doing it on an empty stomach, the glycogen is used up from doing the weights. And you need the glycogen for the weights so you don't want to waste it on cardio.

I think it is more catabolic when doing cardio after weightlifting.

Ask Jodi though!

I normally do too, but I'm hanging with Jodi on this one! It's hard for me not to do cardio, but I really don't want to lose the little muscle I have left!
