Yeah, me too. But she is looking good in the current pics--even if she does have her clothes on.

Good job Pammie. Your hard work is paying off!

pammiejoe6 · 05-04-2006, 07:11 PM

awww ya'll are sweet....hahahha

im tryin at least!

i just finished a kick ass workout and post lifting cardio! yay me!

Quad dominant w/ biceps:

ATF squats: 5x5@120lbs
lunges: 3x8@BW
SLDL: 3x10@104lbs <--hammie accessory
bb curls: 3x5@60lbs, 2x5@54lbs
db curls: 3x8@15lbs
drag curls: 3x10@29lbs

ok....i started with the squats obviously....didnt want to overdo it since just coming off being a little sick so i kept the weight at 120lbs for all 5 sets of 5....i was challenged as hell and got a great screamin out of my quads by the 3rd set! whohooooo! wake up pammie!
hahaha
to top all that screamin off i followed squats with lunges...i can still only use bodyweight on these for reps of 8....but i can tell i am getting stronger. its usually after the very first set that i want to give up but today i got all the way through with the second set before i wanted to die...heheh...but i held out and toughed my way through it. strangely my toes always hurt after i do lunges...like i am bending them too much or something....since i workout barefooted maybe this is happening....ill have to remember to wear shoes next time and see if it feels better that way.
i hate lunges.
hammie accessory was last for leggies....i used 104lbs on the barbell for the SLDL....but today i bent my knees a little and really stuck my butt out and kept that bar right to my legs all the way up and down and i got the MOST KILLER burn in my hammies! holy crap! it was HARD!
biceps were next..
barbell curls were great with 60lbs for the first 3 set but i had to lower for the last 2....i noiced i was starting to sway my body with that 60lbs on that third set so i lowered to keep form solid. nice pump in my biceps!
db curls were next....i only used 15lbs on the db today....still....for 8 reps i get a good workout.
drag curls were last...these are challenging for rep of 10! i used 29lbs and i think it might have been a TAD too light but i still felt it bigtime by those last reps each set...oye!

immediately after lifting i hopped on the exercise bike for 15 min sscardio!

great workout!

pammiejoe6 · 05-05-2006, 02:08 AM

everything went great for me today! good eating...a tad above maintenance today and yesterday but nothing too bad....today it was all clean eating just a little more than i wanted...TOM showed so i was quite ravenous. i really need to look for some primrose oil! its supposed to be very helpful with PMS and i have noticed mine getting worse and worse! bites!

im tired! that workout is already making me feel sore! so kewl! see ya'll tomorrow!

Where are your carbs now? You had been down to like 17% on 1900 cals. Are you going for Keto or are you carb cycling? Don't go and disappear on us now

*R*

BTW, if your bar olny weighs 4 pounds I think you're going to need a new one soon. That one's got to be bending with the weights you're using

Good workouts!
