    You have a house on your ship??:laugh:

    Sorry I haven't checked in gang. I am up to 21/21/15/15/26 today. I worked in gardens all weekend and did about a thousand squats while planting and digging and spreading dirt ~ really sore from that today so I'm thinking that tomorrow *everything* will be sore! Yikes!

    Hope I'll do my test on the above website tomorrow morning. :wink:

    Let us know how your test turns out:drinker:

    I'm pathetic, I haven't done it yet. :embarassed: I had muscle sore from the aerobic class and then got sick. Mmm... I really look forward to seeing where I stand, but I just gotta give myself time. :huh: Will definitely keep you posted! :flowerforyou:

    omg - now you're really killing me. But seriously, I want a bosu ball now. I have a regular ball and do lots with that - it has helped tremendously with my core strength! I guess I can get the same hyper-extension on the regular ball - just can't raise my legs like on the bosu. Heehee, I'm talking like I could even do that anyway:laugh: :blushing:

    you can do it don't tell yourself you can't
    just tell yourself you will

    I love that Bosu there a little pricey like 100 bucks but I think wall worth the money

    Week 2 Day 2 in the books

    set 1: 21
    set 2: 24
    set 3: 18
    set 4:18
    set 5: 40 (at least 26)

    Goodness, they're getting harder! I'm definitely feeling the muscles hiding behind my stomach! Maybe by the time I get to the end of this I'll just be whipping out 200 like JohnBlake!

    How are everybody else's coming?
