P90X Kenpo last night. Needed a cardio workout, and hadn't done that in a while. Made it a little more intense by doing calisthenics instead of the long, slow yoga warmup. Squat thrusts > vinyasas. :-)
Still having water retention problem - I do think it's the allergy meds, plus food has been too high in sodium lately.0 -
Down for the count with a nasty nasty head cold. I can't focus on anything right now. Managed to make it through work. I can't sleep hardly and my chest feels so heavy, it's hard to breathe. However, a bunch of that mucus came out today which is a good sign that hopefully I'll be over it in the next couple days. Still, I walked to dog but today I don't even feel like getting out of this chair. MY head hurts so bad lol. I don't really have a desire to eat either, so at least my calories have been really low. Hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to get back in the gym, but right now it's just not happening.0

I like the results, not the exercise. I didn't have any weights with me, so I did more sets of the other squats to "make up" for the missing extra weight.0 -
Realized that increasing reps every week is going to lead to my weight workouts taking too long ... so I'm adding weight instead, and doing an A and a B routine that are a little different from each other, though targeting the same basic muscle groups.
4 sets of everything, targeting 10 reps for the working sets.
Today:
Squats - 165 lbs
Incline Press - 150 (this was tough after doing only flat press for a few weeks!)
Stiff-Leg Deads - 105
Pull-Ups (bodyweight, assisted) - 4x10
Upright Rows - 85 lbs
Dumbbells Curls - 30s
Calf Raises - also w/ 30s
Plus: Ab Ripper X.0 -
Friday: Strength Training and Cardio
Upper body:
Push ups: 3x10
Diamond pushups (from knees) 3x10
Hammer curls: 3x10x20lb
Triceps: skullcrushers 3x10x15lb, tricep dips 1x10.
Abs/back: 3x20 scissor kicks, 4x20 abdominal raises, 5x15sec superman, 1x60sec plank, 2x30sec side planks.
Shoulders: 3x8x15lb lateral raise, 3x10x20lb shoulder fly, 3x6x15lb front lateral raise.
Cardio: medium jog for 15 minutes.
Food: on target, except sodium. Having crawfish tonight!0 -
