This weekend!

Hi everybody!
This weekend is Dora's (my training partner's girlfriend) first figure competition! She has made HUGE progress! I'm sure she will win it! Wish her luck!

Tony, my training partner is now 2 weeks out! I am 7 weeks out! We are both doing really well!!

I will take some pictures this weekend and show you our progress.

2 days in a row...Whew!

Hi,
Today is my well needed rest day! No lifting!
I will do some swimming today during my lunch break, if possible. Swimming is my favorite type of cardio. I feel so good after, very relaxed and worn out. Too bad I have to go back to work.

If it's nice out, I may even go for a walk too when I get home from work. I think I make the most progress when I do cardio twice a day.

My back is still really sore.
I will try to take real progress pics this weekend and post them.

I'm gettin better!

I am so sore! My back just aches!
I feel I have a few weaknesses in my back, the balance is off a bit, but anyway, I'm sore in those exact spots! I tried to design my back workout around those spots and it worked! Well, at least I feel it.

I feel like I'm starting to see changes everyday too- it may all be in my head, but HEY- Whatever works, right?!

Ok, sorry again.

So I guess I'm not doing too well updating this. Sorry.

But, everything is coming together! I feel and look leaner than last week.

My training partner and I had a great back workout yesterday, we went to a different gym! We did close grip pull ups first. We really stretched at the bottom and then squeezed hard at the top- 4 sets of 10. OOH! That wore us out! Then we did 3 machines and exercises we'd never done before...I was exhausted by the end of it.
Over the weekend I was doing cardio twice a day and felt so tired!! I'm just not used to that amount of activity yet, I guess. I need to build up my endurance!

Oh- we started using the Stairmaster more and more...gotta get my glutes lean and mean! Hopefully, I'll get some more pictures up soon.
