  • Money wise: Dogs, we are adding a beautiful pure breed German Shepherd to our pack in 3 weeks, we got first choice. She wasn't cheap, but she will be worth every penny. I'm also saving so I can send my new girl to protection classes, also not cheap... but so worth it. I have a pyscho Ex who is getting out of prison…
  • @MissHolidayGolightly‌ That is a great idea for breaking the OHP plateau! I'm going to give this a try for sure. And naw I'm good on the Ibuprofen, I feel pretty good ;) But thank you <3
  • Good morning ladies! yesterday was Workout B :) Squats 5x5 @ bodyweight. My form is so much better since ditching the bar and my legs are so much stronger in the right places. I did get under the bar for 1x2 @ 45lb and they felt really good, still waiting till Feb to get under the bar for all sets though. Just a personal…
  • 1.check 2.check, decreased from 100lbs to 94 pounds 3.check of course ;) 4.not yet.. working on it. In the swing of things :)
  • First of all, it's highly motivating to read all your workouts and to see all us ladies rockin it at the gym day in and day out. So thank you :) and Keep on keeping! Last night was Workout A I think Squats 5x5 @ 0lbs, just body weight as I'm really working on form and movement memory for when I attempt the bar again. They…
  • Understandable, but you can modify them greatly, as you can with most exercises :) I hurt my back rollerskating (falling straight backwards and somehow not cracking my head open lol) and instead of the kick back, I put one foot back at a time, then went to my knees, small pushup, one foot at a time back, no jump. Still…
  • I see so many burpee haters, so I'm here to rep on their behalf.. see my profile pic ;) They are a pain but literally work everything! You can do them anywhere, trust me, I like to get creative, and they help your over all stamina. That being said, I hate burpees too.. but I love them just as much. Anyone who can do one…
  • Yesterday was my rest day from lifting, but no reset days from burpees! I have a new 100 burpee PR and I couldn't be more excited! I was so sore yesterday and I knew the only way I'd get through my burpees was just to suck it up, hit the deck, and bust them all out at once. I did all 100 in just under 16 mins! This is huge…
  • Oh yeah, by 50 my feet barely leave the floor!
  • My burpees go like this. Jump up squat down put hands on floor kick your feet back into plank push up jump up one burpee. There are several varieties that I will be playing with this year, man makers, hell raisers, double push-up, there's so many.
  • Thank you! I'm actually doing 100 burpees a day minimum for the whole year :) They are a pain, but you can't get more for your buck then with those little *kitten* hahahha.
  • Yay I made it back to the gym! Workout A Squat, 5x5 just body weight till my form is perfect Pull ups, assisted weight @100lbs 5x5, ouch.. hard Bench Press, 5x5 @ 45lbs, it told me to deload since I hadn't been in a few weeks, however these were incredibly easy, up to 50lbs next time Barbell Rows, 5x5 @50lbs, these are…
  • Oh nice! I love challenges! 15 pull-ups in 15 weeks. April 22 is my 15 week deadline. my plan is simple, work the crap out of my arms lol! 1. Use the assisted pull up machine at the gym as another 5x5 set 2. Decrease the weight of the assist once a week if possible 3. Continue on with my 100 burpees a day 4. Purchase some…
  • Finally got back to the dang gym after a month long bout of sickness running through my house and then a "surprise" root canal. It feel so good to pick up my trusty barbell <3 Squat 4x5 @35lbs 1x5 @45lbs I don't know what got into me, but I picked up my 35lb bar and it felt.. light... like, they were really easy and I got…
  • Thank you! Great work out for you too, but that's crap that the staff wouldn't help.. geez...
  • Thank you! I try and support the cause all I can. I lost my mother to stage 4 breast cancer and I unfortunately since she was diagnosed at such a young age, I'm high risk for it as well. So this was a shirt I had to have <3
  • Oh wow! What an amazing change! I'm so proud of you for sticking with it! Hows C25k going? I love that program too! Thanks for posting the photos, they show so much change! Finally made it back to the gym last night after two weeks of no lifting because that virus in my house, it felt great and I'm feeling it. haha
  • Got my @$$ to the gym finally! Squats, 1x10 body weight, 5x5 @35lbs. These still hurt. I really didn't think that I was going to make it through these. My legs felt like the might melt after the 2nd set but I pushed and made all 5 sets. really proud of myself here. They still hurt like hell though Bench Press, 4x5 @50lbs,…
  • Thank you Peta, and yes I'm 110% now! ready to start some running, have an upcoming 5K I just found out I'm going to lol, and of course get back my true love, the barbell ;) It's Friday, keep going shredders! So proud of you all who made it, who are struggling to get in another day and to those who are just starting. You…
  • Yeah I've been really hungry, but I know I have to eat soup and rehydrate and yadda yadda yadda that the dr told me lol. I miss chicken strips lol
  • Well I've been sick and haven't lifted in nearly two weeks, Spartan race soreness first then sick kids, then sick me, now sick hubby. That virus needs to get the hell out! Anyways... I've missed you all and hope to lift again Monday. If I can start eating soon that is.
  • Thanks guys, I was really sick. That virus tore me up, so I spent my 30th birthday on the bathroom floor :( but it's over now and I'm just trying to get my bodies strength back up. It's hard when I can't eat any food yet. Great job on all the progress guys!
  • Blink if you want me? ahahahahahahaha that's so funny!
  • Great job Peta! Congrats, those are some impressive numbers! You guys are all doing so great! I've been off track due to some virus that's going around and got not just one, but both of my kids :( Spartan race was great and burpees are something love to hate. They work everything, but man do they hurt TGIF :) This weekend…
  • Spartan Race is an obstacle course mud run. Fun and challenging. Thank you!
  • Aww love date nights with the hubby! Have a great time and we all know you'll be smokin' regardless of what you wear!
  • Yay! I love being chatty! So far so good this month, came into it good and muddy from a Spartan Race. Sucks that I'm a little sore and might have to skip this weeks weight room, but when you can't lift your blow dryer due to burpee overload (not from failed obstacles, from being the old admin of a challenge group lol), I…
  • Hey guys! The Race was great as was Halloween. I'm sore EVERYWHERE, but dang, it's worth it. Did a ton of burpees, just because I used to be the admin for a challenge of 100 burpees a day and so my old groupies made me get down and burpee out with them haha. I did a good few for failed obstacles too, I failed three of them…
  • OMG, I can't breathe! This was the best thing I've read all day!
  • Nice! Happy Birthday! I heard "ghostbusters" on the radio this Am and I was like "oh yeah, it's gonna be a fanfreakingtastic day" whoa!
