Ya think that's enough for one day. I mean come on...surely you could have done one more set of something.

hibiscus09 · 06-20-2005, 11:45 AM

LOL -- I thought I did less than usual that day as I wasn't taking my reps high.

Dan · 06-20-2005, 02:13 PM

Good work yet again Hibby.

hibiscus09 · 06-21-2005, 11:22 PM

Thanks, Dan!

Today was just double cardio session day - -no lifting. I'm doing my 120bpm prebreakfast cardio by walking outdoors. It keeps me pretty close to that range, and I just enjoy the peacefulness of being outside in the neighborhood early in the morning.

This afternoon, I turned in 30 minutes on the StepMill and 15 minutes on the bike.

My suit lady contacted me and said she would be ready to mail them in 2 weeks! I'm so excited -- I can't wait to get them! I'll be more excited if my hiney looks halfway decent in them!

So will we....

hibiscus09 · 06-23-2005, 03:14 PM

LOL --

! Good morning, Dan!

I just turned in my hour prebreakfast on the elliptical at 120bpms. The Lipo6 is definitely getting my heartrate up faster because I had to do less speed and resistance on the elliptical to achieve 120bpms.

Later today, I'm training with Kristy, more cardio, getting airbrush tanned, and errands.

Ya'll have a great Thursday!

Oh, and I meet with Pam (diet lady) tomorrow.

Hi Hibby! When are you going to post up some progress pics?

Dan · 06-23-2005, 03:38 PM

Hibby how many weeks out are you?

hibiscus09 · 06-23-2005, 04:27 PM

I'll take pics tomorrow if I find time! Life's been crazy lately!

Oh, and Hi Murphman!

Dan, I am a little more than 6 weeks out from my first show and 9 weeks out from my second show. Time's flying.

My suits should be here in a little over 2 weeks -- I can't wait!

Trick D · 06-23-2005, 04:29 PM

Can't wait to see the new pics... keep it up.. One of ironmass's own is going to own the competition =)

hibiscus09 · 06-23-2005, 04:31 PM

Thanks! I don't know about all of that, but I've certainly been giving it 100% effort. I just want to do it, know I've made the accomplishment, and eat something bad for me again!!

Oh, and some wine would be nice. :p

Dan · 06-23-2005, 04:40 PM

I am sure you will do well but on the off chance you don't ...look at all you have done and the changes you have made physically and mentally.

hibiscus09 · 06-23-2005, 10:42 PM

Yep -- I'm already proud of myself.

Okay -- here's today's fun at the gym:

Incline Dumbbell Press

10 reps X 25lb dumbbells
10 reps X 30lb dumbbells
10 reps X 35lb dumbbells
6 reps X 40lb dumbbells

Cable Cross Overs

15 reps X 40lbs each side
10 reps X 50lbs each side
10 reps X 60lbs each side
8 reps X 70lbs each side

10 reps X 100lbs
8 reps X 120lbs

After that:

Cardio

35 minutes on the StepMill. I'm supposed to keep my heartrate between 140 and 160bpm, so I kept it at level 4 and double stepped the entire time except for a 3 minute warm up single stepping and 1 minute cool down single stepping. I also tossed my leg back like a kick back and squeezed each double step. The double stepping kept me at about 155bpm. After that, I did 10 minutes on the treadmill at 4.0mph and 15% incline -- about 143bpm, and cooled down for a few minutes.

Voila!

Dan · 06-24-2005, 02:54 PM
