Me too! I'm excited and also nervous.

I had a weird dream last night..........Dreamt I went into surgery and gone into Cardiac arrest.......I was watching the doctors trying to revive me.......there was no reviving...........I still sat there looking at myself wondering, "why won't my heart beat?" Then I thought, "God wants me now"..........................I woke up and was like: WOW!.....Rolled over, kissed my hubby, told him I loved him and curled tight against him...............

he's very worried.

Good luck at the Dr.'s Babs! Let me know how it goes. Remember to go in with whatever questions you want answered! Miss you!

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...

BabsieGirl

Thanks Rock! During my lunch hour I plan to write down all my questions and concerns.........

How's it going bud?

I feel I'm leaning to far forward on the squat when going down and I'm not at parallel yet. Though about putting plates underneath my heels. But no back problems yet, LOL. So that's good! When I push up from the squat I feel like my knees go in toward each other, does that make sense?

BabsieGirl

Do you have a spotter?

Hmmm.....wouldn't the plates throw off your balance?

Good! Glad you're not hurting yourself.

If you feel your knees go in while coming up.....place a medicine ball between your knee. This is usually a sign that your inner thigh needs strengthened.

that makes sense......Now I'm curious. Do your knees also go in while doing the leg press?

No, i don't have a spotter! Wanna come down here

I've heard when you go on your toes (especially when your tall) that plates (10lb) under your heel helps correct that problem.

A medicince ball huh? Interesting, I'll try that next time.

No I don't really have a problem with that on the Leg press, weird huh?

You always have such good ideas!!

BabsieGirl

I'd love to! On my way!

I'll have to try that and see. I sometimes have that problem when I do squats....I feel if I sit back into it like you're suppose to, that I'll fall flat on my buttay.....That wouldn't be any fun! Funny to see....not funny to do.

Try doing your squats using the squat rack or use the smith machine until you get the positioning down. You can lean clean back on those and not have to worry about falling forward or on your tush.

My father actually recommended I do that. To get the hang of how the ball feels, start out with jumping squats while squeezing the ball tight with your thighs.

Sorry...back to the squatting issue. have you tried going all the way down to the floor? I find that helps me keep my balance. One thing though, you have to keep mental focus on the drive up.

Thanks Rock

Hopefully you had a better Leg day then I. today was a total failure on Legs (rep range). I just did not have it going on in any way. I couldn't get motivated, I couldn't get comforable under the squat bar, I had Zero enery which all is not me. Very disapointed with my effort today but like I said in my journal, I'll use todays failure as a motivational tool for the week. How did your squats go Rocky?

Burner02

yeah, ya big post whore...how did squats go for you?
If I am not too tired this evening, I will be squatting this evening.
(I am back on day shift today....having a hard time getting sleep schedule back online..woke up @ 0230..and it's going to be a
L O N G Day!

If it helps, I also get myself 'set' before I decend my first rep.
(by that, I mean I make sure my back is straight, feet are placed exactly as FS mentioned, tighen my abs ((which also sets my butt correcltly..don't let that sound too weird)) take my breath and head down.)
I use that power rack, so I an place the safetly bars one notch below my point of being parallel. (I rarely have a spotter, so this is the best I have)
I drive up thru my heels, so I do not lean over too far.

I did it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Squats....No pain.......!!!!!!!!!!! The weight was EXTREMLY LIGHT!!!!!

Warm up:

Leg press with 45lb plates
2 Sets of 20........First set was wide stance....second was close.

Leg Press
5 Sets 10 Reps @ 180lbs plus how ever much the press weighs
*No Rest
Squats Squat Rack
5 Sets 10 Reps @ 95lbs (See not heavy)
*No Rest
Precor Sprints
total time: 1 min Level 3...High incline

****1 Min Rest

Note: The only reason I tried squats was because my trainer set the bar for me to stop half way down. Didn't go all the way down.

Good Mornings Standing Wide Stance
4 Sets 10 Reps: used bar with built in metel bars and padding that wrap around your neck, across your shoulders and your back.
*No Rest
Lying Leg Curls
4 Sets 10 Reps @ 60lbs (keeping it light)
* No Rest
Reverse Hyper Extensions
4 Sets 10 Reps @ 75lbs

**1 Min Rest

Leg Extensions
5 Sets 20 Reps @ 70lbs
*No Rest
Calves
5 Sets 20 Reps @ 220lbs

***1 min Stretching.....Low back was tight

Abs
Cable Row Crunch
3 Sets 10 Reps @ 120lbs

This is odd. Don't know if anyone has tried this before, or if there is even a name for it: Here goes the explaining.

Using a BIG RED BALL....I think it's called the balance ball.......Take it over to the Cable row machine. Set your weight. Mine was at 120lbs. Attach the leather straps to the cord. Place the ball where your feet would normally go. Sit down with your back and glutes pressed firmly against the footrest and ball. Grab the leather straps, brace your feet under the seat and crunch.

****No Rest

Abs
Bench push
3 Sets 10 Reps @ 85lb

This is how to do it: Lay down as though you were going to do a bench press. Grab the bar and lift it from the rack. Hold the bar (by locking or keeping your elbows slightly bent) straight up and keep it over mid section of your chest. Squeeze your glutes and tighten your tummy. Make a wide base with your feet for balance. Now, lift shoulders off bench while crunching. DO NOT allow your shoulders to touch the bench until your 10 reps are complete!

***No Rest

Broom Twist We use PC Poles
3 Sets 30seconds

*30 Rest


***************END
