legs!
leg ext. 80x8, x8, x7, x7
hack squat 135x10, x10, x9
single leg press 95x12, x10 I FINALLY found a comfy position on this..things went much smoother!

leg curls 55x10, x9, x8, x6
cable leg raises 45x12, x12, x10
standing calves 100x10, x10, x9, x8
leg press calves 95x15, x14, x12 nice and slow!

treadmill 30 minutes 2.18 miles

okay boys and girls...bad news...I am going to miss my workout on Friday (hopefully can squeeze it in on Saturday if my hands are better) because I have to get a tetnus shot (sp.) I was working on a machine last night where the steel had a LOT of sharp edges and I cut my hands up very badly..at least 6 times

I can barely bend my thumbs right now because of cuts, and this mornings workout was less than comfortable..I was able to do all the moves, but to grip the plates was impossible and very painful

on the bright side I am also having a complete physical while I am there..blood pressure, cholesterol, sugar, iron, etc...just to have a baseline to go by...my hubby is also having a physical and he is having his first colon check, I am very proud of him for doing this, even though I know he HATES it!!

Wish us both luck!!

poor thing! Feel better!
U put an 'isolation' move before a compound movement?
(leg ext. b4 squat)

u know the hubby's gonna have a bad physical if the doc says: Ok, bend over and crack a smile...

I'm sorry for laughing, it s a very serious matter, I just pictured the Dr. doing that and how I would react!!!

Best of wishes to you both!!!

Nice wo Billie ,

I remember doing cable leg raises, I liked those ( note to self: put them back in the routine sometime soon ).

OUCH !!! So will you be off work for a few to let the hands heal ? Good luck at the doc office

I always think of the Ray Ramano line about getting "the test." I don't want to do it because I'm afraid it will hurt...but I'm more afraid it won't...

Don't worry guys, I haven't even got up the courage to put up pics of my body...........................let alone a documentary on the inside of my colon.

"Fasen your seatbelts and hold on to your popcorn ladies and gentlemen, around the next corner you are about to witness an inflamed case of Dyverticulosis".

If I go ahead with it, would you consider doing the narration, Pylon?

Rocco32 · 12-02-2005, 11:57 AM

Good luck with the physical Billie. I haven't had one in 12 years!! I should go.

b_reed23 · 12-03-2005, 12:41 PM

okay...no gym today..which really pisses me off...

My hands are better, but my shoulder is super sore where they gave me my tetnus shot

do you think it would be okay to do a back/bi workout on Monday and then start over on Tuesday with my shock week??

Physical went good...cholesterol is 179, which is good he said, and BP is 90/70 which I thought was low, and he said it couldn't get any better than that. My sugar is normal, and my liver count is high, which he said is fine (I don't even know what a liver count is!! lol...) The nurse weighed me in at 132, and said "wow...you don't even look like you weigh that much!!" to which I replied..."haha..it's all muscle...hahahahahaha"

I have noticed though that since I've gained a few pounds my hubby can't keep his hands off me....it's kind of funny really...he says he likes a little jiggle in my wiggle....LMAO...

I did go for a walk yesterday....2.75 miles

better than nothing I guess????

That's goodf news about your physical

Sorry your shoulder and hands not 100%. As for working out after the tetnus shot, I would say go for it if you can move it. The movement, increased body temp, and increased blood flow should help the tetnus (toxid) shot be absorbed quicker and in theory make the pain go away faster. As for the liver count being high, I would say he was probably referring to liver enzymes such as AST, ALt, Alk Phos. I would be a bit concerned if the liver enzymes were high and ask the doc to clarify exactly what was high and what "he thinks" is the cause. Liver enzymes can be elevated when the liver is stressed by metabolizing drugs, alcohol and from infections.

That's great about your hubby liking your new body

Archangel · 12-03-2005, 12:54 PM

You'll be okay I think to w/o Monday, just see how your body feels and responds to it, then either continue or wait another day!!!
More "Jiggle in your wiggle" huh" Awesome!!!

	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...
