Ceradad 10 Posted June 11, 2008 upper body workout last night. 60 minutes on elliptical this morning. Really tired this week as I can't seem to get to sleep at night, but still forcing myself to get up and hit the gym. I'm actually kind of hoping softball gets cancelled tonight so I can try to get to bed early. If not, then I won't see the bed until about 10:30 at the earliest.

luluc 6 Posted June 12, 2008 hi all - after talking w/my surgeon and my trainer, i'm taking my goal weight down by 8lbs to 117. I'm pretty short, 5' & can still see where my lower body would need to slim down some. As I crept to my original 125lb goal, I figured I would re-asses & so a new challenge is on & i'm going to step up the training for the summer. in addition to tsd/thurs - my trainer "trains" some members of the Baylor Football Team on Wed/Fri (early 5am) - i'm going to hit up Wed morning conditioning just to see how fit i really am..LOL. i'd like to be 120lb by the first of Aug - when i visit my parents who i havent' seen since i had the surgey...for me exercise is the only way i can get close to the scale goals set...... Sooooo.. today - 2mile run 50min training session - windsprints / ladder drills / squats / lunges , abs , shoulder - tri - bi plan on getting some swimming in later on... have a good one~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

whosyadaddy 0 Posted June 16, 2008 HI team!!!! Saturaday ran a 10k Sunday biked 20 miles. TOday nothing yet. I wanna play in the pool with Luluc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ceradad 10 Posted June 16, 2008 Gotta play catch up from the weekend. Friday morning was both lower body and cardio of 65 minutes on elliptical and 25 minutes (2.1 miles ran in 20 minutes) on treadmill. Saturday morning was 65 minutes on elliptical and 25 minutes (2.15 mile run in 20minutes). Sunday went at it HARD. Set the treadmill for 60 minutes. Decided to run until I could not run anymore. Hit the 5 mile mark @ 50:25. Got in a total of 6.26 miles in 65 minutes (incl. cool down). Then hit the elliptical for 25 minutes. I've never run that far at one time. Heck, until the 5k's this summer, I've never run half that distance at one time. I couldn't believe I was able to do that.:biggrin: This morning was 65 minutes on elliptical and 15 minutes (1.05 miles in 10 minutes) on treadmill. Tonight is upper body again.
