    Why do you need a trainer.
    Lol, why do you need a teacher or need to go to school? Why do sports players need coaches? Why does anyone that work need a manager?

    Good answer!

    BTW, I've had 3 different trainers in the last 3 years and they've all helped me enormously. At my age I need the help and the focus!

    Not getting much exercise in this week. Lots of appointments with hubby's doctors and work to get done here. I'm doing a lot of his work now so it's keeping me really busy.

    My plan is to get to the gym on Friday and Saturday though. I have been trying to swim in the afternoon or early evening just to get something in.

    I hate missing the gym but sometimes it just can't be helped.

    Hope you're all having a great week!

    Good Morning Gang!

    ok, Rest week is over and I'm back to workout land! during the rest week, I did a 7 day yoga home retreat workout, from doyouyoga.com, a perfect fit for my resting week.
    Started today with another program from bodybuilding, it's called perfect summer shred workout. It has weights and either steady state cardio or HIIT. This is an advanced program, and boy did I feel it this morning!!!!

    Cardio: 20 minutes HIIT to be done after work
    Strength: Chest, Triceps and Abs done!

    Nutrition has been too relaxed last few days, my goal is to work on nutrition and get it under control, well, not necessarily today or tomorrow tho, hubby will be going away tomorrow and the plan is to be in total control of my nutrition, while he's away.

    Good Morning All!!!

    @luluinca Hope you feel all better and all is well with hubby

    Yesterday's workout:
    Cardio: Steady Cardio 45 minutes, stationary bike

    Strength: Perfect Summer Shred: Legs! Wow!!!! killer leg workout! those sets and reps were unreal, silly me, lifting my max for those many sets and reps! well, if anything, I know now, my 1RM must be a lot higher than what I lifted for those workouts yesterday!

    Nutrition: was high on carbs and super low on protein, a trend that needs to be changed ASAP.

    Today is a lifting rest day, but will be doing HIIT or maybe even better, doing a tapout session after work.

    This entire week was a bust as far as workouts go. I am swimming almost every afternoon but I don't think it burns too many calories really. And I got one dog walk in. I am going to the gym in the morning so hopefully it will be the beginning of a better string of days!

    Have a great 4th of July weekend!

    Have a great weekend everyone!

    I finally made it back to the gym and next week should be more normal around here...........fingers crossed!

    Cardio: Getting in a 30 to 40 min swim this afternoon.

    Strength: 1X5 DL w/115, 1X5 DL w/135 and 1X3 DL w/140 lbs, 3X10 shrugs w/95 lbs, 3X10 DB shoulder press w/15/15, 3X10 floor press w/65 lbs, 3X10 inverted rows, 50 ball crunch, ball hip flexor raises, 2X10 chinups w-108, 3X15 fly w/15/15, 3X12 chest press w/40, 3X15 single arm cross row w/40, 2X15 calf raises w/40, 2X15 tricep extensions w/30 and 3X10 rope tricep pushdown w/30.

    Increased my DL by 5 lbs but still a ways away from my highest.

    I'm new to this thread. I have those last 5 lbs left to lose. The past few months I've gotten my diet on track, after finding out I have some severe food allergies (including gluten and dairy). I had already given up gluten because I suspected I had a problem with it. Giving up dairy has not been as bad as I thought, but still tough. I've been feeling so much better too! And I've really been kicking up my exercise! I will be finished with 30 Day Shred in a wk. and then a couple days later will be starting Focus T25. I can't wait, but I'm scared too
