good to know. and oh yeah! look at that! you sure did. hahahaha! Yours was deliberate and planned ahead of time, though. Mine was an impromptu solution... that's why i was wondering if it was ok that i did that...


well, a spanking may be in order. :evil:
 
Why, God? Why?!?!!

I hadn't watched VH1 in a while, and I just now flipped to it, and caught the new (?) video by Rob Thomas, of Matchbox 20 fame.

WHY does his solo work sound like something the backstreet boys or in sync would put out? What happened? I used to :heartpump: Rob Thomas. I loved a lot of the songs he wrote for MB20, and I love his voice. But damn. If this is the route he's going to go with his solo career, he just lost me... I'm disgusted.

OK. just had to vent...

Hahaha, thanks! :)

Please, lurk all you want. ANd if you are so inclined, feel free to post something, whenever.

Yeah! The Grip n flip rocks! i used it every morning for my little egg/oatmeal concoction that I've fooled myself into believing is a delicious pancake. Hahaha!

If it weren't because i currently can't afford to make any additions to my already crowded kitchen counter, I would buy the Flavorwave Oven next! It kicks ass! Have you seen this thing?!
 
Good evening Ivy, hows your day?

Hadn't seen it but I just checked out that link you posted in the nutrition forum. I just got myself a new G. Foreman (the one with the removable grilling surfaces....SOOOOO nice!) or I would think about getting the oven. I'm a horrible cook, but I love all the gadgets! :D
 
congrats on the job, hope it works out for you.
 
hi all... too. friggin. tired.

i will post my workout tomorrow when i get home, but i just wanted to highlihg that today patrick had me squat 20 reps for 3 sets, and i did it. 115lb/20 x 2, and then made it to 18 on the last set before finally losing my form and stopping. 60 second rest. the first 60 seconds seemed to take forever. it was a strong set and i was looking forward to the next one. the second 60-second rest FLEW BY, and I was still gasping for air when i started the third set....

but i did it :) Woo hoo.

Oh yeah and there's been some developments. i will not be doing sales at la fitness, no. i am now training there. A trainer left today and i inherited her appointment book full of clients. WTF? How crazy is that?
 
115/20 at your weight is no joke!!!!

And yet, i feel like it was no big feat. :( is there something wrong with me?!

it is huge. if I were there you would have done 135 for 20.

Definately something wrong. Maybe all the blood is still in your legs and not your brain? :grin:


Congrats on inheriting the book! Are you happy?
 
GoalGetter said:


don't worry. I would spot you. It would give me a chance to put my hands on your boobies. :shhh:

No, but that is damned impressive. I don't think I'm too far ahead of you in terms of what I can squat for 20 repetitions, esepecially considering I'm a male with about 85 pounds on ya!

Eh, yes. I am happy because right off the bat i have more clients than i had in three months at bally's. but the pay is so crappy that -- well, whatever, at least i have a job. hahhahaha let me just try to look at it that way... right? Yes. I am happy. :)

Yes, as that is the only way you'll be able to do that.

ok ok ok... fine, everyone says it was impressive... i guess i'll have to believe it. thanks. :) it just didn't FEEL impressive. hahahaha! I'm sure your form is much better than mine on your squats, CP. I often get caught up in the numbers and sometimes sacrifice form just to get "there" wherever "there" is. I am also sure that you can probably squat more than you think you can for 20. ;)

man i am jsut tired and run-down today.
 
You know, lately i feel like saying the hell with the show and instead start training for an obstacle course. :shrug:

i am not the "just stand there and look pretty" kind of girl. This posing stuff is really getting to me and is making me focus more on how useless figure competitions are (no offense to those of you on this board who take this more seriously). I am sticking with it just to say I did it. One more thing to add to my list of things I've tried, you know? But more and more I'm realizing this isn't for me. The dieting is not a problem. i can diet. The training is not a problem. i can train. but the whole point at the end... to walk on stage and smile and look like a Fitness Fun Barbie... what is the point?

So I'm doing it. I'm doing it for the experience because not everyone does it, because it's hard, because it's a sacrifice and I'm a massochist. But after this, I'm going to focus on obstacle courses, which I've been learning more and more about lately and REALLY want to try.
 
Precisely the reason I'm doing bodybuilding next time ;)

Check your email. Don't hate me yet, it gets worse. :grin:

I think I agree with you, I tried to do a show in 2003 and just couldn't make the last two weeks. What was the point anyways, well good luck to you. :thumb:

:laugh:

:cry:

Ivonne, I would never do that. However, I am going to warn you that this isn't easy. I would have to can be one of the most difficult things to do. Your mind starts playing games, your workouts suck, you wake up everyday wondering what this is all for. You need to be strong, you need to have the willpower and realize that it will be over soon. It's very trying and it wears on you but you are a strong girl and I know you will get through. Just keep looking at that goal and nothing else will matter. Once it's over you will be happy you stuck through it.

IOW, emotionally unstable need not apply ;)

These next 2 weeks are just a trial run so that you and I both know what to expect from your body in that final week.
