I want to clean it up this summer. What kills me is that I am always on the road.
Sagittal, Frontal, Horizontal..The Monkey Man said:GG...
How many planes are you doing the MULTI-PLANE LUNGES IN???
Is it a spoke array? What's the order?
So front lunge, side lunge and one that goes across, so I actually turn/pivot on my back leg and lunge at about 45 degrees behind me, then return to the front-facing position.
Like shit. haha. No but really... except for the few times I've lost control lately and ended up having all sorts of edible madness, I've been toying with carb cycling...min0 lee said:
so it has gone something like this:
Sunday - high carb, Monday - Low carb, Tuesday - no carb, Wednesday - High Carb, Thursday - no carb, Friday - Low Carb, Saturday - No Carb
My protein is at 22g per meal across the board all days, minimum.
On low carb days, I have 105g of carbs, divided into three meals. On high carb days, since I can't control myself, I have decided to implement a specific number, as Jodi suggested, so I'm going with 2g of carbs per lb of bw, so 210g of carbs divided into four meals. Fats stay at about 30g a day, regardless of what kind of day it is. Six fish caps a day, the rest of the fat from good fat sources or fattier proteins (salmon, beef, etc.) at two meals.
As far as what i am eating, generally same clean stuff - chicken/turkey/egg whites/brown rice/sweet potatoes/oatmeal, etc. On high carb days, I will have stuff like buckwheat pancakes, multigrain sprouted breads, stuff like that, and on Sunday's high carb day i have cheats, like pizza, or a burrito, some low fat or non-fat ice cream, or a fat free rice krispie treat, etc.
The last two weeks have been a little erratic and I've been freaking out and eating the wrong foods at the wrong times in DEFINITELY the wrong quantities, but after saturday's baking class and subsequent pig-out fest, I have been VERY good.
What did she say sucked about yours?The Monkey Man said:That's OK... Emmalee told me mine sucked...

Hey... wait a sec - I didn't say it outright sucked! I just said that some improvements might be made with some tweaking...
But if it is working for you Monkey Man the stick with it!
She didn't... It earned a bunch of these...GoalGetter said:
So the middle lunge (45deg) is not to the front, it's to the rear?GoalGetter said:
_ | _...or _\|/_... Is it #1 or #2?

VERY creative way of putting it. Yes, #1 seems right.The Monkey Man said:
I was wondering because you wouldn't outright say someone's diet sucks. you give suggestions and point things out usuallyEmma-Leigh said:

hahaha! Or just make a or 
face!
ah, that's more like emma-leigh. I just can't see her telling someone, "Yo, your diet sucks!"The Monkey Man said:She didn't... It earned a bunch of these...
Yeah... Em would never say "it sucked"Emma-Leigh said:

That would not be fair of me to say
I am going to write myself a note, to get a body comp this week...
(I promised Em xtra info)
I used to run this setup when I was coaching boxing,GoalGetter said:
I used a medicine ball, and a L-R torso twist in between #'d lunges...
The medball twist is performed in the direction of inertia created by
your weight transfer
(IE- It moves with the natural rhythm
of the weight shift from your feet) -- EX...
coming off the Left foot lungeing,
the ball swings 90deg R,
then 180deg L,
Then 90deg R to solid front hold,
then the Right leg lunges~
~the motion starts over again, but in a different plane and the
twist order direction will reverse...
(Coming off the Right lunge, the ball will swing L-R-L)
(If you didn't stick the solid hold before entering the next lunge,
I would punch you in the head)
(The goal was speed and balance)
The order of the planes is kind of like tightening lugnuts on your car wheel
(if that makes any sense?)

Obstacle course dilemma...
So this was the obstacle course I was hoping to enter when I'm ready. BUT it is also a god-damned beauty contest. They have a bikini round and an evening gown round. This is the format: Figure, Obstacle Course, Fitness Skills, Evening Gown, Model Search.
WHAT THE FUCK. I am NOT doing this. MODEL SEARCH???? JESUS.
I just want to run through an obstacle course.
So now i am left with the task of finding another obstacle course type of competiton that is JUST an obstacle course and nothing else. No tri-fitness thing, no beauty pageants, none of that other bullshit. Honestly, at this point i don't care if it's a small local thing put on by the neighborhood elementary school hahahaha! I am just so upset that the one i really wanted to do requires that i also parade around in a fucking evening gown.
Sorry for the colorful language. I am just frustrated.

P can probably decipher it, if really interestedGoalGetter said:
You said you like lunges, so I pulled something Lunge-EE
out of my a-..... Hat.
It's really specifically designed for boxing
It might not fit in the P-side experiment
GoalGetter said:
look for those all in one comps (forgot the word Im lookin for) where you run swim and bike. triathalon or something like that
i don't want to run swim and bike. I want to do an obstacle course.motopsyko32 said:
A triathlon is way more than i want to do in terms of my training for it. Training for what I want to do is part of the fun! I find no enjoyment in running, biking or swimming.
uh... THIS YEAR?Novo said:We really need to talk, I have so much news
Can't wait to catch up! Dish, girl!
I'm gonna make a guess...

Workout updates
Hi all...
well I've been lazy to post stuff on here the last few days
Sorry.
let's see... friday - upper pull...
Took me five sets with some rest in between (30-40 seconds at a time) to complete 15 chin ups. Ugh. I don't know why i'm so weak lately. It was 4, 4, 3, 2, 2.
Everything else was pretty good - barbell bent-over rows, shrugs, YTA's, nothing too exciting. Nice weight and strength for everything else, but the chin ups... i was disappointed with that.
Yesterday I rowed with patrick on the Concept2, 3 miles, took me 24 minutes. P finished in like 20 minutes or something like that.
I started out strong (i think we both did), but got tired pretty quickly. Not so much "tired" as it was that my SHINS were starting to burn! WTF!? Cardiovascularly i was ok until the sprint in the last 300 meters. But my leg/hip muscles were totally shot by then.
Food-wise I haven't been an angel lately... Have to admit my inexplicable craving for cuban pastries led me to a little bakeshop in Chelsea (Mary's Off Jane) on Friday, where I found some DECENT -- BUT NOT GREAT -- "pastelitos". I was a block or two away from Chelsea Market (home of the Food Network), so I went there too, and checked it out (and by checking it out, I mean i ate a lot of food from all the little shops - Fat Witch, Sarabeth's, Amy's Bread, Eleni's, Ronnybrook Farms, Bowery Kitchen Supplies (they had free gelato, so i sampled most of their flavors).
Friday was supposed to be a low-carb day, but i had to switch my diet around this week to accomodate for my lack of discipline on Friday. Not that I'm "dieting" per se, just trying to find a happy balance where I can eat some of this stuff sometimes and be really strict other days and still maintain my girlish figure
Anyway, I decided I better not take more than one cooking class a month because that was disastrous to my psyche and self-esteem. It's been a week and I am still feeling guilty, which causes me to feel sorry for/angry at myself, which causes me to not give a shit and just eat. Vicious cycle. Sucks. Hahaha!
