Feeling somewhat better today not that many cramps and hioping I can make it to the gym today.
The roads look like crap since it snowed over night. Can you believe it? It is May and we got snow. Crazy weather.

On a better note. I am down to 160.8lbs this morning.

For monday... instead of doubling up on the bodypart, why don't you try rotating them... So, Chest press fyrst, then Rows, then crunch... then dumbbell flies, lat pulldowns and finish with side crunches...

For leg days.. I suggest putting the squats fyrst since u're using your body weight.. and would probably consider that to be a warm-up for the leg press where you would actually use weight...

and arm/shoulder day .. I'd suggest mixing up the exercyses the same way that I did on the fyrst day... Just do the hammer curls on a 45 degree incline and forget regular bicep curls.. do tricep extensions or tricep pushdowns instead... that way you have an equal amount of bicep vs tricep exercyses...

Give it a shot & see if ya lyke it..

It's definitely a nyce routine... & I'm a big believer of timing my rest periods..

Peace..~G

BIG bump to the post above...these boys sure know their stuff! Good job on your weight loss, hun! Cant wait to see your IMPC pics for next month...kick butt!

miezimau · 05-12-2006, 08:30 PM

Hey Game,
thanks for stopping by. I do already mix it up a bit. It is not quite as stiff as I make it out to seem. I just listed it here this way so it is listed by Body part. I do mix it up everytime.

Had a great workout and cannot wait until Monday's workout. We are going out of town for the weekend to go camping and rock hounding with the kids.

**Grunt76** · 05-12-2006, 09:07 PM

So how are you liking the new workouts?

dnyc99 · 05-13-2006, 07:39 AM

Hey miezimau...enjoy your weekend! Sounds like lotsa fun!!! :winkthumb

Have a great workout Monday! :dumbells:

~D~

GameDayDog · 05-14-2006, 05:37 AM

Actually, I would keep it pretty set.. instead of doing each exercyse in a random order.. that way you could measure your progression better...

For example.. if you do Incline for 60 pounds, then Flat Benches for 50 pounds and tricep extensions for 40 pounds.. for 3 sets of 8.. and you raise the weights, you can rest assured that u're getting stronger..

But if you do Inclines for 60 pounds, then do tricep extensions, you may find that u can use 60 pounds, then flat benches you may only be able to do 30 pounds... and that's a danger to measuring progression, if you choose the same exercyses but perform them in a different order everytime...

I'm in favor of doing somethyng the same way all the time until you no longer notice u're getting stronger.. and there are other's that say you should mix stuff up to "shock" the muscles... In my never humble opinion.. if you're keepin a journal and tracking your progress.. doing the same thyng is the best method to use..

Hope I explained it clearly.. & happy mommaz day if it applies..

Peace..~G

miezimau · 05-15-2006, 02:48 PM

Ok, we are back from our Camping trip, went Rock hounding and found a few nice pieces, but nothing fancy. Had a nice Mother's day the Boy's and DH took me out to Olive Gardens, and even though we had to wait 45 minutes to get a Table and another 45 minutes to get our actual food, it was a nice time. I am up by 2 lbs this morning, but part of that was having to eat late at the Restaurant. We got there at 6pm and left around 8-8:15pm.

Fixing to hit the gym right now after I water my lawn for a bit.
