I'll be lucky to be at where I started. Life has been the suck. I need to be in the gym 3-4 days a week, but have only being getting in 2. I am noticeably stronger, lifts have improved, and I did a little garbage circuit(30 walking lunges with 15# medicine ball, 5 pull ups, 10 leg lifts X3) last night that would have killed me a couple of months ago and barely broke a sweat.

My legs are doing great and if I shaved them and did some fake bake tan it would be really noticable.
I really need to have three good days for weights and two for cardio. I'll take the gains in lifting and scratch for the cardio as life evens out. |

I have a couple of 5Ks in May that I want to run - have never run a whole one before - so that, too, is my "success." if you have had crazy days and haven't gained fat, you've succeeded.

I am fighting to get to some routine again. Good workout today, but it kicked my butt. Squats 5X5 190#, Bench 110#, Row #130. The squats are getting heavy and I got sloppy. Need to work this weight for awhile and clean things up.
I saw two new things today at the gym.... A guy was doing something like quarter squats in the smith machine, but the weird part was his form. High bar position, feet close together, and he buckled and I mean intentionally buckled his knees in. I have always pushed my knees out. What was he working or was it just bad form? The other one was also squat related. Standing on the half ball thing doing squats. Again, what benefit is there over a regular squat? Damn I need to hammer cardio. 5ks are coming up and I need to get it together. |

Again, what benefit is there over a regular squat? - some would say that having to maintain your balance while squatting works your legs & core more. others would say that this is stupid and a great way to injure yourself, especially if you're using weights. YMMV Damn I need to hammer cardio. 5ks are coming up and I need to get it together. |

I just sent my pics. Relatively strong start, then hurt my neck and the physical therapist said stop everything and only do the exercises he prescribed. Fixed neck, and I changed jobs which made the convenient gym no longer convenient, so I dropped out of that and sporadically worked out at home for the rest of the time.
5 lbs lost (I guess I should have weighed myself this morning to get a few more lbs!) I've promised a friend that I'd run at least the half marathon w/ him in Oct, so I've got to stay doing SOMETHING until then! that'll keep me going. K |

so, of course, now that the competition is over, and I'm disappointed in my own performance, I'm back to tracking my food, and the hubs and I went on a long walk tonight (and yes, long is relative - 2.4 miles for 7,769 steps)...
whatever it takes to eventually reach the goal, right?
