What a fun day~ It was fun for many reasons:
1. I got to spend some extra time talking to my DH today in route to an from his job (his car is in the shop)
2. I got to buy my kiddo a sonic “whacky pack” for them today–Tia thought the word Whacky was funny!–so do I!
3. I got to workout with my DH, sorta– not actually together, but we were at the gym at the same time
4. I went shoe shopping– the only kind of shopping I tollerate– and I bought a pair!
5. I had fun talking on the phone about BuffMother! My favorite topic!
My workout was good–OH an I am DYING from my sore butt today–those lunges and Dead Lifts–totally killed it!
I lifted a weird upper body mix today:
R- bike warm up
Chest press machine
4 sets…can’t remember weight- I don’t usually do this machine other than for warm up prior to bench, so I wasn’t really focused on the weight
Incline flys
35′sx10
40′x6x2
Standing barbell military
45×15
65x8x2
right shoulder pain– i have a tricky rt. shoulder that I have to keep in check
lateral raises, front raises, hammer curl –mix of about 2 sets
tricep push downs
95x12x2
one set of cable raises between
10×10 each arm
pull ups
8, 8
Lat pulls (cybex pull down)
130×10
150×7
170×5
130×12
Seated rows– oh my poor sore booty
90x20x1 set–my pain was too great on my bottom half to do any more
run total of 4 min warm up
10 mins medium/hard 1 mile at 8.6 mph or a 7:03 min mile
good enough since I have a hard killer Track workout tomorrow
Then abs- old school sit ups- seriously for like 2-3 mins straight…next time I need to time myself
Stretch
Bicep curls on hammer machine
45×15 (5 full, 5 short, 5 full motions)x2
shoulder rehab rotations- 10# db x 10×3 sets
Blesses,
Michelle


I love yogi tea. I mix 1 bag of green tea and 1 bag of berry tea add a packet of truvia to fend of any sweet cravings!!
My favorite tea is honey lemon ginseng….. Every morning with stevia!
I a morning coffee drinker~ I’ll typically switch to tea in the afternoon/evening
From 3 in the afternoon on is my pit-fall. Looking for anything to help me through it!!
tea really helps during that time– also, that’s a popular workout time for me.
Ugh…I have done free-weights FOREVER and really need to learn the machines….
Well, today we are closing in on the final 2 weeks of the 40 days to fit. I was just telling a friend how much I LOVE this Challenge…I MUST do do another NEW ONE like it!! I’ll work towards putting it together next week!!!
YAY!!!
I had those last night…I just gave in…booo…buffing is around the corner…I am ready!!!
HEy! you’ll be buffing in no time sweetie!!
Love my tea..its zumba and weights tonight!!
I enjoy a hot cup of green tea with lemon. Shouldnt this count toward getting in a gallon of water each day??
Yes it certainly does!! keep up the great job!
I have mint plant so recently I have been sipping mint tea before dinner. I heard that its an appetite suppressant. I decided to give it a try.
Oh yummy!! I need a mint plant!
I love the tea tip! I love drinking tea and haven’t been doing so lately. I’ll have to get back in the habit…yummy! Thanks for the reminder!
I love butt soreness! It reminds me it is getting more shapely!
Wonderful workout!
I know~ it’ll be just like what I do today~exept for the insane running, I have not been running recently !!
Love lunges
It’s a cardio day for me 45 min intervals on the treadmill! My kids like to watch me they think I’m crazy!!
LOL!! your kids are learning by osmosis!!
Lunges and deadlifts kicked my butt last week too! Been wondering what exercises gave me my soreness…thanks for clarifying for me!
Don’t you just LOVE IT!!?
Great workout!
can’t wait for a great work out tonight! Cardio, UpperBody & Abs! Love Monday work outs! Might even walk the dog before I head to the gym!
I am starting to get some muscles in my arms. This is a nice change!
SWEET!!! That’s how you know you’ve been putting in the work!
Thursdays are busy! The kidos have gymnastics on Thursday nights so on to the upper body work out then mad dash to town!
Good day today. biked 20 miles. I don’t get enough cardio in so this was great!
I think it’s funny you mention old skool sit-ups as I’ve recently found an old copy of Abs of Steel 2 kicking around, and have been doing it every morning for a couple of weeks
Gotta love the old skool sometimes haha
I love shoes
Off to run and get my cardio in today. Weights and strength tomorrow.
I do love a mug of warm cinnamon or chamomile herb tea in the evening. There seem to be always new benefits I learn about. I’ve heard now that White Tea is the best for antioxidants.
Good times!! I don’t like shopping much either but I DO like talking about fitness. I bet it’s really cool to have your very own fitness business
It might be something I pursue when I retire in 2014…
Fitness is a fun business- tough too, but FUN!!
Great workout! I haven’t worked out since Thursday (today is Tuesday) =( so not too happy about that. I have to get ready to pack for going away tomorrow so I should be able to at least get in a little leg work out today. Gee christmas season is so hectic
This Whole weekend is one big Christmas party for me and it is not easy to Buff when that happens. I did skip the cookies last night though!!!! Yaay!
