Guest guest Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Okay, I've finally caught up with my email after this crazy week, so I figured I'd check in with my activity for this week. I'm not tracking my food intake because it is basically soup, pudding, mashed potatoes, etc. every hour or two because I'm starving to death with not being able to eat a real meal. I'll be so glad when the pain in my mouth is gone! Anyway, here is my exercise for the week. Monday--Taught Recharge, Restore, Relax class--30 minutes Tuesday--Last day at the gym, so I taught everything I could! First it was 30 minutes of FitBall with a heavy loop and 8 pound dumbbells, then it was 30 minutes of abs on the ball, and finished it up with 30 minutes of Pilates Wednesday--Took some of my gym members to their new gym and demonstrated weight machines. I did light weights and didn't write them down because I was demonstrating, but it was a moderate workout for about 45 minutes. (Leg presses, leg extensions, leg curls, inner and outer thighs, abs, low back, roman chair, lat pulldowns, rows, bicep curls, tricep extensions, bench presses, shoulder presses, dips, pec dec, and rear flys) Thursday--Massage therapy for 1 hour...I'm not allowed to workout on massage days. Friday--20 minutes of weight training for the legs, this time I did write down my weights. They are light compared to what I did before the injury, but overall, not bad for my first real weight workout since the car accident. Here is the breakdown: Seated Leg Press--2 sets, 15 reps, 140 pounds Horizontal Leg Press--2 sets, 10 reps, 140 pounds Leg Extension--2 sets, 12 reps, 45 pounds Seated Leg Curls--2 sets, 12 reps, 35 pounds Inner Thigh--2 sets, 8 reps, 30 pounds Outer Thigh--2 sets, 8 reps, 20 pounds Warmup and cool down on the treadmill for 5 minutes. Tomorrow my plan is to lift for upper body, but it depends on how my shoulder feels after having the weight on it from the horizontal leg press today. If it hurts, tomorrow will be a rest day. Sunday is moving boxes to storage as active rest. I know this wasn't my Plan for March, but I just couldn't wait to hit the weights when I was told I could!

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2007 Report Share Posted January 27, 2007 Here's my update - Saturday I completed a FIRM Classic - Volume 1, aerobic weight training.Sunday was Taebo Total Body Blasting - intervals of cardio ( Taebo) and resistance work. And swam laps at the pool with dh and the boys.Monday I did the FIRM Volume 1 again.Wed - Turbo Jam Punch, Kick, Jam - 50 minutes of kickboxing, a bit of shaking and grooving and some very fun, effective capoeira ( A Brazilian form of martial arts and dance combined).Thurs - the Hollywood Trainer Cross Training. This set is on sale at Amazon, $US 12.99 for 7 workouts!.btw I only have two workouts in the set - Cardio Sculpt and Cross Training. The Cross Training was good for me to shake things up - about 10 mins kickboxing, 10 minutes cardio sculpt with light weights ( I used 3 kg - about 6 1/2 lbs) and then 20 minutes of pilates and yoga.Fri - Australia Day andone son's birthday! Did Taebo : 's Favourite Moves. 45 minutes.Sat - I did Taebo again - an old Advanced Live ( number 6, with a cardio, form and standing abs focus for 60 minutes). We've also been walking and swimming and bike riding and doing housework withn the kids - its summer here and been pretty hot...Oh, and we've been eating out for J's birthday!

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2007 Report Share Posted January 28, 2007 Sounds like you had a great workout week. That Volume 1 Firm is a tough one, can you do all the leg work? Hope you had fun on your son's birthday and Australia day.
