40 days to FIT!! Day 23 & 24 WEB work!
Posted by buffmother in Abs, BUTT, BuffMother, Michelle Berger, Legs on August 12th, 2009
Sorry I missed out on being my normal “interactive” self online yesterday; I’ve been working hard on my Website’s Store…I am rather proud of how much of a TECHNICAL Genius I am becoming, lol!!
I also had to run several big errands yesterday, which meant my computer time was cut short and I missed my workout~ SHEESH!! how did I let that happen?? My only explanation is that “ITs JUST my HORMONES!!”. I felt the effects of cycle day 24 yesterday for sure! NOT anything too Bad (like being crabby, stressed or depressed) but I did have a total lack of focus…everything I tried to do took 10 times longer than it should have.
This is a short week for the kids at school too, so My “work week” has been cut by 1 day…which means I need to get a lot more stuff done today! I’ve already got my workout done~ YAY!! I did it right after getting the kids off to school:
LEGS~
warm up r-bike 7 mins
Squats
warm up- bar- stretch- bar some more…I was really stiff!!
95×10
95×10
115×10
135×10x2~ this is the highest I’ve gotten to recently~ still being VERY Careful with my back
DEADS
95×15x4sets various stance and forms
walking lunges
45#bar on back x15×2sets
Smith Butt Squats
50×10x3
Smith lunges on step
50×10
one set of hanging sit ups here.
70×10…felt a bit of a back strain here so I opted to be safe than sorry (not sure if it was from the lunges or the hanging sit ups??)
Leg extensions
110×10
50×10x2 sets- one leg at a time
70×6x2sets
Sissy Squats
15repsx2 sets really squeezing glutes
That was all…I took NO-EXPLODE first thing this morn despite knowing I shouldn’t~ I can’t take it as a pre-workout, I get tummy issues and cramps from it. I can however take it after workouts as long as I’ve already eaten something…I’ve decided that I’m not going to buy it again. It’s the only creatine product I’ve ever used that’s created this kind of tummy issue for me. There plenty other creatines that work better for me.
BTW- I had a SUPER powerhouse upper body workout on MONDAY evening!
HORMONES+CREATINE = PERSONAL BESTS!!
Gotta go shower, eat and work!

Back to LIFE!!

Back to LIFE!!–first post contest workout!
Well I woke up this morning feeling BLESSED!! I had all my little kiddos and DH surrounding me and realized I have a GREAT life!!
Thank you JESUS for all of my BLESSINGS~~ including all my lovely BuffMother friends. I am so fortunate to have such a super group of ladies who share in the common goal of leaving a LEGACY of Buffness through their lives. YOu all ROCK!!
So now as I return to the responsibilities of LIFE after vacation–dishes, housework, laundry, cooking, etc…I am determined to “slow down” and strive for PEACE in my life!
That’s just what I did in my workout today–lowered my intensity and just let my body recover from all I have put it through over the past 3 months of intense exercise and diet.
My workout went like this
20 min of r-bike
knee extensions 3×20
Sit ups on incline 2×20
lower back extensions 1×35
abductions 2×50..’sx20
knee ups 2 sets
no weight bulgarians 1 set of 20
hack squats- focus on booty- 50 reps
15 min of cardio on the upright bike
Then 45 pilates class–this felt good, but I kept on getting cramps in my feet!! OUCH!
I don’t really feel like I worked out, but that is fine, for me for now–soon I know I will be back at it full BORE!
I am off to shower finally and mentally prepare to go to wal-mart with 4 kids 
-BuffMother!
