Had a good workout with my trainer this morning. Not quite ready for squats, hip's still a little stiff, so we did lunges.............a lot of them. Worked my lats too by holding a 20lb bar over my head for all of them.
Exercise: 20 min calisthenic warmup incl 2X 10 situps w/12 lb ball, 2X 10 standard pushups, 60 sec extended plank, 60 sec forearm plank, 15 pistol squats w/20 lbs, 2X 20 physio ball crunches w/25 lb plate, 2X 15 physio ball speed bridges, 2X 20 clams, 2X 20 hip extensions from all fours, 5 min stairmaster. 70 min strength training w/Brent including 2X 20 side walking lunges w/20 lb barbell overhead press, 2X 20 walking fwd lunges w/20 lb OHP, 2X 20 walking rev lunges w/20 lb OHP, 2X 20 side lunge rotation w/10 lb ball, 2X 20 squat w/lat raise and 10 lb ball, 3X 12 inner thigh w/90 lbs.
Food: Now that I'm working harder again I'm back to averaging about 1700-1750 a day.
I've been hungry and lost a pound over the last couple of weeks, so I can tell my metabolism is inching up again. Pretty close to maintenance and will begin increasing my calories slowly I think. My doctor thinks I'm done losing but I'm not quite sure I believe it. I'm in no hurry right now as I'm feeling pretty good and strong. I think I'd like to lose at least another 5 lbs or more. We'll see.0 -
Happy Tuesday!
So far, the Houston area has been fine with Tropical Storm Bill coming ashore. We're lucky it took a slight turn west. We'll see how Wednesday shakes out. Still had decent amount of rain today. Really don't want any more.
Cardio: 6 mile run, moderate pace. Did enjoy running in the rain.
Food: on target.0 -

Thanks niner...........just realized I put two of those bar weights in as 00 instead of 30 lbs............LOL. I added it up and realized I did 180 lunges between fwd, rev, and side with a 30 lb bar over my head. If someone had told me to do that I would have said............uhhhh, no thanks.
A little easier day at the gym today but I got my swim in.
Exercise: 15 min calisthenics warmup including 2X 10 pushups, 2X 12 situps w/12 lb ball, 2X 20 crunch twists w/12 lb ball, 2X 15 physio ball speed bridges, 2X 8 physio ball speed pikes. 25 min strength training including bench press >2X 8 @65 > 2X 5 @ 75 > 2X 3 @ 85 lbs, 3X 8 each side single arm row from bench w/37.5 lbs, 3X 10 overhead tricep extension w/17.5/17.5 lbs, 2X 10 bicep curl w/17.5 lbs. 30 min swim.
An hour and a half to lunch and I'm already hungry again............swimming always does this to me. Sticking to my plan though, it's all pre-logged at about 1750.
Niner, sounds like the client base is growing..............good job!

A variety of science topics. He used movies (and beer commercials!) to tie it together. Showing when movies got science right (and wrong) and using that as a segue into the science topic. But not movies you'd think of; examples like how West Side Story got thermodynamics wrong (dialogue between two characters about cold hands). Or how fractals are mentioned in Frozen. Or how a Corona commercial shows a proper sunset and moonrise in the tropics. Awesomely done. Very entertaining and with plenty to think about.0 -
