Today was lake day! Had a blast enjoying family and friends and baking in the sun! The water was still waaaaay too cold to swim in. My fair skin soaked up a little too much sun too! ;P

Oh that stinks! I'm in South Carolina! You?
 
Oh, I can't wait to get out on the water. We haven't taken the boat out yet this season. The weather is perfect for it today though....

Glad you had a blast. That temp will be just right here soon.

Toronto (Canada).Are you anywhere near Myrtle Beach. Was there for the first time back in October, returning this October.

Not too far just a couple of hours away! I've never actually been to myrtle surprisingly! I am a quaint quiet beach girl myself! Love to just walk along the shoreline for miles and listen to the waves!!

They truly are a money pit. Find a friend that has one and just offer to help clean it and chip in with gas.

Trust me..

Yeah, that's what we do now. We have a friend who has a membership with a local boat club and he invites us along for most of his weekend trips! We just sneak gas money into his bag because he won't take it! Lol We had a boat a few years ago that we shared with another couple but the motor burned up while we were out and they threw in the towel! Haha

Good morning and happy Monday everyone! Started the week off with a great back workout! It was cramping up about halfway through! Felt great though!...unfortunately while doing abs, I think I somehow strained my wrist. It takes my breathe away if I bend it downwards. :-/
Ain't nobody got time for that!!! Lol

Going back at lunch for cardio...Oh, guess what?! Hubby wants to join the gym again- hopefully he'll go consistently this time!! If so, I'll be training in the am and again in the evenings with him! Maybe I'll even get my 13 yr old daughter to go with us as well!! :) I hope everyone has an amazing day!!

I've said it before, & I'll say it again... Great pulling...

Thank you! I feel like I'm getting stronger! It's such a great feeling! Especially when you pull more than most of the guys there that early! ;P It just makes them pick up their game and I'm always happy to push people! Lol
 
Good Lawd that volume!!

Careful with those wrists on ab exercises. Lol

Thank you!! Haha Ikr! It's so stupid! I don't even know what I did! I was doing kickouts and all of a sudden a sharp pain ran up my arm and I about fell off the bench! Lol I pushed through the rest of the exercises! It's fine as long as I don't bend it! It's only a little swollen so surely it will be fine tomorrow!

A lot of guys are pretty damn lazy in the gym compared to women... Keep it up!

That's funny you say that! I've always wondered why guys just don't seem to be that into pushing during training. Thank you!!

Pfft.

It is mostly true though. There are serious guys at the hour I go, but I've noticed if I go later in the morning there are lots of guys just hanging around.

Yeah there is a nice mixture. Most of the ones in the morning are serious but there are a few that could do so much more! I have only witness the ridiculousness in the evenings a couple of times! Big meatheads doing half*** jobs on everything. Lol I enjoy watching and learning!

Great amount of volume. You have some really well planned workouts!
Click to expand...

Thank you very much! I enjoy making them! :)
 
Got 45 mins of sprints in at lunch...total of almost 1100 calories burned today and man can I tell! I decided to cut out carbs for today so I'm crazy tired now! Haha Even threw in 2 sets of 10 pull-ups and hanging knee raises! :D

Wrist is feeling better though so it must've just been an odd freak thing! Lol

Damn thats alot of calories used! You are like the energizer bunny.

Haha I just pretend! I guess it's just from keeping my heart rate so high throughout weight training!
 
Crazy volume, great results!

Thank you! You think 1/2 scoop to start? I was surprised at how small the container was but I can't wait to try it tomorrow! :)

You know your stim sensitivity better than me, I started at one and moved to 2 but I am stim-immune.

If you're fine with Alphamine you can handle a scoop I'm sure

Ok good to know! I am not very sensitive at all so I'll prob go with a full scoop - if all else fails I just have to train harder to compensate! ;)
 
Good morning! Tried out my Enhanced today! Loved it! I was able to go up on several exercises!! I am beat now though! Must've trained hard- I was hungry an hour before meal #2 time! Haha

Chest/Tris
Warm-up: 20 push-ups

Incline BB Bench 55x12, 65x12, 75x12

Flat DB bench 35x12, 40x8, 50x4 (I haven't been able to do the 50's since I hurt my shoulder 2 years ago) Woohoo!!

Peck deck 70x12x3

Decline bench 95x8, 85x10, 75x12

Incline cable flyes 10x12x3

Triple set:
Ez bar cable pullovers 15x20, 20x20x2
Overhead rope extension 30x12x3
Straight bar pushdown 30x12x3

Sprints 26 mins- ran out of time! Had to get home to get the kids to school!

Happy girl!!--- I had a friend who hasn't been training in the AM for a while stop me this morning and tell me that I've made huge changes since he saw me last! :D Made me smile!
 
Boosts in Self-confidence are nothing short of amazing.

One comment can make an entire day.
Your boost was well merited too!

Impressive change.

Nice numbers on your lifts. Really like that tri-set at the end... and sprints too boot! Keep it up.
 
Great am session, Kat! You look amazing as always! That's the best feeling in the world, when people notice your progress!
