Now is the time for warmer clothes
Posted by buffmother in Fitness on December 6th, 2009
BRRR!! it’s been cold here this week~ Not that it gets anything like Minnesota, but it’s been chilly compared to the 60’s we had for the previous 2 weeks. I am pretty much against winter clothes…I hate bundling up!
What do you think?? do you like winter clothes? Or do you like summer clothes better?
But ~despite my protest, Now is the time for warmer clothes, jeans, scarves, coats and mittens ~ so…I’ve got to go up in the attic today to grab our box of winter accessories…I hope I don’t get LOST up there, lol!
I had a great workout day yesterday…and I did good on my diet too. Low carb and I DID eat greens too!! YAY!!
Here’s the workouts:
am fasted cardio: 10 min elliptical; 20mins of running intervals on treadmill; 12 mins of r-bike then abs
3 sets of knee ups on roman chair
3 sets of crunches on ab roller
stretching between
pm LEGS
Squats 45×10
2 sets body weight bulgarians to help warm up
95×10 135×10x3sets
2 sets knee ups on bench for abs
Dead lifts 135×10x2sets romainian
135×10 conventional
Leg press low weight high reps- 3 sets
Leg curls 70×10 80×10x2sets
That was it, it was all good!! Now for today, I am not going to do fasted cardio…I am going to eat and head to the gym for a back/sh/bicep workout and intervals.
What do you think?? do you like winter clothes? Or do you like summer clothes better?

Whew!
Busy few days for me~
I just wanted to catch up here on my journal
Tues:
Ran outside and did 100 walking lunges
Wed:
Did a Chest/Tri lifting workout followed by running intervals on the treddy- GREAT workout
followed by 100 lunges
if you are wondering about the lunges in my Team BuffMother! Rally ROOM…we have a mini challenge this week to do 100 lunges every day this week. So far so good!!!
I am headed now to the gym to do a Back/Sh/Bi workout and some intervals if time permits….otherwise I do them later tonight.
I’ll post after I get it DONE!!
Have a super Thursday!!
Wrap up for the week and WHAT IS your plan???
Posted by buffmother in Goal Setting (POA), Running on July 23rd, 2006
Hello!!
Happy Sunday—I am a bit bummed…we missed church today, so I feel like I am missing something–
The weather this weekend has been beautiful- much cooler and a bit breezy…so much better than the triple digits we had all of last week.
So I got my booty out for a run outside and dang! that was a killer!! I’ve only been running on the treddy as of late and MAN- it is so much more effective outside. While on my run I decided my goal is to keep up with my outdoor running and get TRACK ready in 2 weeks. I have not ran on the TRACK since my Junior year in college–so 10 years!! Can you believe it? It is a mental demon of mine, I want to go to the Track, but I am scared kinda–I know it sounds weird, but I have a lot of emotions tied to it.
Well, I am having good success buffing–my tummy is getting smaller along with my booty, lol. Speaking of which–I am an Apple body type as I have stated many times, but that does not mean that my butt doesn’t get fat–it does. And it has been a little bigger here the past month (my DH says it is a medium size instead of its normal small size version, lol) I have a good distribution of my fat–meaning I gain weight very evenly all over my body, but the first and last place I gain and lose is my stomach. 127 is my current weight–my goal is to be 126 by FRIDAY- so one more pound this week–very doable!
My wrap up from last week looks like this:
Monday- Chest/tris/pushups 4 min elliptical warm up, no intervals- electricity went out at the gym
Tuesday- Back/Bi’s Shoulders- 12min warm up- 20 min running intervals-10 min steady r-bike and Grocery shopping- this has to count as some sort of cardio, right?
Wednesday- OFF totally
Thursday- officially started buffing- took some pictures of me at 128 17 min r-bike warm up- KILLLER LEGS
Friday- Chest/tri’s/push ups/ tons of abs- warm up 30 min r-bike, GREAT intervals run on treddy 28 min total
Saturday- Back/Bi’s/Shoulders only 8 min warm up
Sunday- Run intervals outside- make ab video weight =127
So the plan for this week is the following:
M- Legs
T-Chest-run outside
W-back-intervals on elliptical
Thurs-Legs- run too? Hard on leg day but we’ll see
Fri-Chest-intervals on elliptical
Sat-Back, run outside-snap a set of progress pictures- goal is to weight 126 at this point
Sun-off
Did you week turn out to be a good workout week? And What is your plan for this week of workouts?
Have a super sunday!!
-Michelle
