My Body Creation

[Burner02]

hey CQ!
What's a leg kickback? Kinda like using the butt blaster?
How's the tushie this day? I will be pounding legs toinight....the pain...it's a coming!

 

[CourtQueen]

I'm sure that there is some other name. You can use the cable which I prefer but I just used the machine. Ok, found it = standing hip extension.... Working on the tushie obviously
But volleyball will help with that. Looks like I might be playing in that tourney down there on the 28th. They usually have a crab boil that night.
Back to work.... How is work treating you?

 

[Burner02]

I'm ok...bored. ABout to go eat...that makes me happy..

the 28th? Might have to stop by and say howdy!
as far as my v-ball skills go..I make a great bystander..

 

[CourtQueen]

Should I have coffee?? Should I not have coffee??
Should I have coffee?? Should I not have coffee??
Should I have coffee?? Should I not have coffee??
Should I have coffee?? Should I not have coffee??
Should I have coffee?? Should I not have coffee??

The great debate

 

[Burner02]

I say, go WITH coffee..
Of course,. I use evil, yet tasty coffee mat creamer...cinnamon vanilla cream is my fav..

 

[CourtQueen]

Where is Jodi?? Isn't she watching your diet??

BURNER - coffee mate is sooooo disgusting and so bad, I think it is made by the little chemists in the "I want to be a cow" plant.

But on the other hand, it probably isn't as bad as a detour bar

 

[Burner02]

is NOT disgusting...'tis GOOOOD!
have to have coffee..coeffee sux w/out taste..so creamer it is....
oh..'moo'..
EVERY body is watching my diet!
I get beat on a daily here.....

 

[CourtQueen]

LOL - poor Burner

Ok, back to work and to my coffee

 

[Burner02]

what do you put in your coffee?
I do sometimes put sugar free hot cocoa mix in..and make a mocha..

 

[CourtQueen]

I'm not telling - I'd get flamed

 

[Burner02]

ha ha!
wise choice!

Monday - UGH
I just want to go home. VB was good this weekend. So taking today off. Playing again on Saturday so going to do cardio for the next 4 days and UB tomorrow LB on Wed.

Trying to avoid the kid's bday cake. Guess I need to grab that salad instead. Going to try and keep it lean until Thursday evening and add a few more carbs starting then. Definitely need to up cals the day before the tourneys.

I get my bf% done tomorrow. Need to establish where I'm at and reset some goals for the next 2 months. Still trying to figure out how to adjust things for the vb but learning (and losing YEAH).

On to meal 4......

 

[CourtQueen]

Woohoo - got into the gym for a little HIIT this morning and it felt great.

I've been really bad about keeping my journal and that is probably because I haven't been eating as clean as I could. Changing that as of now. I really want to make some strides in July/August.

Todays Plan
Oatmeal w/Cinnamon
Coffee (trying to cut back on this, don't know why it is so hard this time)
grapes, broccoli, cauliflower
tuna on a ww pita (lil relish and lowfat mayo)

will get back on the rest of this..... have to see what I can dig up in the fridge.

hmm...birthday salad..oh stop! You are making my mouth water!

Hiya CQ!

 

[CourtQueen]

Hey Burner - thought you might stop by the sandpits last Saturday.... It was a great day, until it started raining. Hate playing in the wind. Was tempted to stay down there with the whole vb crew (heard they hit the bars pretty heavy and danced their butts off).

 

[Burner02]

were you there? if not..no need to be there....

I got off work, went home and relaxed for a minute, then went to the gym, then to the club to work....
oy....

 

[CourtQueen]

yeah, played there last Sat. It was a great tourney. We kicked some butt (at least before the weather moved in).

Ok, next two weeks I'm in cardio mode. Boosting up that cardio and loving the cool mornings right now. Having a hard time eating in the morning after cardio though. I just don't feel like it.


Meals today:
cottage cheese/yogurt
coffee (yummy)
brown rice/broccoli&cauliflower
tuna fish on ww pita
MR Shake
salmon and spinach
omelette

Feeling really good today (maybe because it is a big 3day weekend, WOOHOO)

 

[Burner02]

wish ya would have told me...could have swung by and said howdy!
Let me know next time u are there!

 

[CourtQueen]

I'm back!!!

This is as good a place as any to keep a journal and besides I know a few people here will keep me honest.

I've been hitting the court pretty hard but it has not wavered my gym time. I appreciate more than ever how weight training can truly change my body, no amount of volleyball can do that.

I have some pretty intense goals for this year so I know this is the place to be.

Tomorrow morning is LBWO. Did a double day today with split UB. Need to get a little more serious on the diet which I think tracking it more than anything will help.

Tomorrow I'll record some goals .....

 

[atherjen]

Welcome back CQ!!!

 

[Yanger]

WB, new here myself. Btw daddy of 6 week old twins (boy/girl)....

gulp!

 

[Vieope]

I think there is no sport that can´t benefit from bodybuilding. Now I got interested in what types of muscles one should work out more depending of what kind of sport he does. Is there something written about that ?

That is so true.

My favorite place was Leadville......my hubby and I so want to move there someday!!!!

 

[CourtQueen]

Yanger!!! CONGRATULATIONS!! How exciting. The first year was really the hardest for me but it just gets better and better. Holler if you need anything.

Vieope, I actually have an older weight-lifting book that does have specific sport emphasis programs for lifting. I need to find that (probably in a box from my recent move, UGH).

Atherjen, THANKS!

Fitgirl - Leadville is beautiful. I've heard rumor of an airport going in there.... could be good for property value in that area.... Luv Ski Cooper (Not copper)...

 

[CourtQueen]

Friday - YEAH

Meals:
MRP this morning (not planned but in a hurry)
oatmeal with eggwhites
subway chicken teriyaki (no cheese)
broccoli/summersquash
Vitapro
Most likely free meal for dinner and going to work on the planning
Need to cook some good stuff tonight for the weekend

Tonight LBWO

Leg Press
Curls
Deadlifts
Calf raises

Want to increase strength on the press. Trying to get leaner in the thighs so if anyone has any tricks here let me know. I don't do the adductor ever...

 

[atherjen]

how about adding in some squats? leg extensions?

 

[CourtQueen]

Yes, I usually do squats. I try to rotate those out with the press. I tend to avoid leg extension since I've had acl recon on both knees but will do it with light weight.......

 

[CourtQueen]

Monday

Cardio at lunch

protein shake
egg whites with salsa
broccoli&summer squash
tuna on ww pita w/lettuce
too much chocolate 5 pieces of Dove Dark Eggs
All-Bran cereal (just plain)
dinner is going to be tough but I'll try and stay as clean as possible

Ok, schedule

Tues - VB
Wed. - LEGS and late VB
Thurs - Cardio
Fri - UBWO
Sat - VB Tourney (hopefully)

Need to focus on eating clean this week. Up the calories starting late Thursday night. (This is absolutely crucial for staying energized for a whole day of playing. I've learned this the hard way. It is much more important what I eat prior to the day of than what I eat that day.)

 

[CourtQueen]

Success - why does success make you want to celebrate in bad ways..... Often leading to more backtracking then success originally gained?? Ahhhhhh, not going to do it though

I need to buy new pants. I've lost 2 inches on my waist since the first of the year and my pants are way baggy in the arse...... So I'm doing something right hopefully.

I need to cut out the lattes....IT is so hard. It is like my last comfort thing. A nice warm latte always settles me down, or at least I like to think it does.

Ok - LEG DAY WOOHOO
Squats
Deadlifts
Curls
Jump Rope

Food
Cottage Cheese w/frozen blueberries YUMMY
WW Bagel
1/3 cup All-Bran cereal (just plain, no milk)
broccoli/summer squash
Yahoo's one fish taco one chicken taco
Rest TBD (need to go to the grocery store)

Goal for the day: Be as professional as possible in my damn work meetings. Stupid freakin males that think they are the only ones with a brain.
