Abdominal pain and brown pee? I'd get a check up just in case. That MAY mean an injury to your kidneys.Been running a lot and boxing and climbing a little. Mostly twice a day 5 miles runs. Two 5 mile runs, climbed, and did some fight training including judo throwing and boxing striking yesterday. Today I did my first 10 miles run and I surprised myself with a 9:30 pace... And the fact that it was easy.
One maybe slight problem... My pee was brown this morning... Could be from whatever additive was in all the diet cranberry juice I've been drinking the past two days. Something to keep an eye on. I've also had extreme lower abdominal pains since my kayaking trip. Some kind of poisoning from the fish... Or the fruity cocktails?

I'd love to join in! I haven't looked at all 132 pages; just the last several. I also post regularly on one of the Just For Today commitment threads and I like the everyday accountability! So, here's mine to start:
Cardio: Insanity Max 30 Cardio Challenge (258 calories)
Note to self: Not a good idea to do an Insanity "cardio" workout same day as a strength workout.
Strength: I'm doing Chalean Extreme. Each workout is one set of the circuit, moving fairly slow, and targeting failure within the 10-12 rep range. Today was Burn Circuit 3:
sumo squat with overhead press: 8 x 12* (weight x reps)
lunge with calf raise: 15* x 12*
squat with lateral raise: 8* x 12
lunge with frontal press: 8 x 10
squat with calf raise: 15* x 12
sumo squat with delt raises: 8* x 10
squat with overhead press: 8 x 10
lunge with lateral raise: 5 x 12
sumo squat with calf raise: 12 x 12*
*increase in either weights or reps from previous week
Assessment: Stayed within calorie limit.0 -

Led a tabata class & went to Krav Maga today.
No strength work today.
Assessment: chicken & boiled sweet potato with a mixed greens (kale, collards & spinach) Greek salad for dinner.0 -

Took the weekend off from the gym to paint and I guess it did me some good. Had a great workout and even added leg press back in.......haven't done them in a month because of pulled muscle. Felt good, although it was about 100lbs off my high, I don't think it will take me long to get back up there.

Lost another pound so I'm basically at maintenance but I'm not going to raise my calories yet since I know I'll already be indulging a bit more over the holidays. I'll see where I stand on Jan 1 and decide if I need to lose a few pounds or go right on to maintenance. It's a good position to be in right now......LOL
Have a great week everyone!!!!0 -

I think I'm finally learning how to incorporate some alcohol into my life with some moderation. That's always been an issue and how I gained all my weight. I've been able to just measure out what fits into my daily goals and stick with that this week so that feels good. I'll need to stay especially vigilant with that. 0 -

gaining weight, not sure why! diet hasn't been all that bad, have to investigate!
That's my favorite Insanity workout!0 -
I enjoyed my Thanksgiving eating unconditionally!
Cardio: 16+ miles at a fairly solid MTB pace, over 1000 calculated calories
Strength: Copped out on my planned upper body, body weight stuff after the ride. I was at 16+ hours fasted and opted for the shower and food
Assessment: Ate at approx 500 calories over maintenance on turkey day but can easily be in the clear for the week on loss goals. Haven't been on the bike much lately but cardio work on the elliptical while making notes of heart rate has put me much more in touch with power use when on the bike and controlling heart rate.
Great thread @ninerbuff I can't believe I've never noticed it before the last couple of days.0 -
