I like them. Christian has me doing them with a close (inside) grip and I like them a lot better than a wider grip.

Thank you! One day I'll get brave enough to have an avy like yours....for now - I pretend!

Hey guess what? NO WORKOUT TODAY!!!!

I'm actually excited about no workout. My lats and triceps and legs are sore from yesterday. So today, I'm happy just eating healthy and NOT working out today.

About to go grab some egg whites, so I'll see you guys later.

Hope everyone is having a great Thursday so far.

Your last circuit looks great! No wonder you're sore today! Have a great day off!

I'm not going to like it when I start getting sore again

You know I really should've gotten in some cardio today...................don't you hate when you do that??? When you're really excited about a day off and then you start to second guess yourself???









Wonder if I can get in some cardio tonight????

Workout today at Noon with Christian. Can't wait. But I'm having a few little twinges in my belly, so I hope it doesn't dampen my workout any. I doubt it will, but I just hope it won't.

Billie - I'm up'ing my Atro today, going from 2 to 2 1/2.

Gotta go get my egg whites and slice of dry toast now.
Will be back to log my workout later.

Did you ever think back to before you started with the whole fitness thing and think..... I would have NEVER thought I would be eating egg whites & dry toast for breakfast,, yuk!

I know I do sometimes,,, think back to the way I used to eat. But I like it alot better now.

I have done that! I like it a lot better now too. I'm so much healthier and feel so much better now.

I remember the year I got into fitness too, do you? Mine was 1996. I still remember my very first piece of equipment -- AND -- the very first person to "act" as a trainer to me. He was a trainer at Good Body's that felt the need to take me under his wing and not charge me!! His name was Ramses and he actually went on to become a bodybuilder. I went to his first show too.

We're racing tomorrow night. Early night tonight and then not much of anything - except maybe cleaning the bikes on Sunday.

What about you?

oh, memories... my first time I ever picked up a weight and knew it was great - gulp - 19.... had just gotten married to a bi-polar/emotional abusive guy that got mad when I started gaining more muscle that he did.... memories... after that fucked up 9 year marriage & raising three kids I didn't pick it up again till I was in my early-mid 30's...

But now it's all better you know what they say - whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger! Ain't that the truth!

Workout started out with some deep/extended lunges w/ rotation stretch (think yoga), then do it in reverse lunge form. Then onto some pushups. Then onto throwing a 10# medicine ball into the wall w/ a trunk twist. Then throwing the medicine ball into the wall in front of you w/ a squat. Then onto some walking lunges. Then onto some squats. Then onto some step up w/ kicks. Then onto some cable rows, then a jog around the track. Then more squats and step-ups and one more round of cable rows........ DONE

hey everyone!

Hope you all had a great weekend. All was good here.

I am going to try to get to cardio today, but not sure if I'll be able to. The girl that's replacing me starts today, and I'll be training her, so I'll see when I get to cardio. It might actually be after work. But - whenever, doesn't matter as long as I get to it.

Billie, I usually open the capsule, dump out half and put the capsule back together -- that's how I take 1/2.

I've noticed less bloating myself. Plus I'm eating a lot better these days, working out a lot more and drinking TONS of water. I figured if I'm going to spend that much money on supps, why in the hell would I eat bad and not use it....know what I mean?

Glad you like the Atro!

Hope everyone is doing well today. 30 minutes cardio today at lunch and a salad and some fruit. My plan is to actually do about 30 more minutes cardio this afternoon after work.

Training tomorrow with Christian.
