Inspirational Workout thread of the day: Thursday

Yea yea I know its boring but I like hearign what other people do ebcause it motivates me.

I went to the gym today, resisting the temptation to blow it off and sit in the park. Go me!!

I tried to do the SELF challenge workout 2(Anyone wnating a change should try it. its fun)

its 10 minutes of 3 different activities for 30 total. I attempted but only ddi 20...I tried!

5 min warmup on level 4.5
10 minute run on level 6.5
10 minute stairmaster on level 7(DYING)
5 minute cool down

Then I did the glute machine and the leg press for three sets of 12

I feel tired but alive!

You did well Jen! I loathe the stairmaster b/c it kills me. Does your gym have that stair mill thing (looks like an escalator)--that kills me, too.

I'm going after work for a change. I think I'll do running intervals. There's one class tonight and it's a little early, plus includes body sculpting and I did strength yesterday, so I guess I go it on my own.

Oh, I didn't forget about JM DVD. Well, I did, but i remember now. Will ask DH If it can be done.

Stair mill thing? Hmm no i dont think so but Im retarded when it comes to machiens so we may.

I LOATHE the stairmaster but it is my friend for glutes as is the machine. i used to be able to rack the entire thing before the wedding if you can believe that. I barely do lol since Im at half of that now . But I did it ebfore and its my goal to be able to that again! I can live with my big behind as long as its FIRM.

Its ok. I have to wait to get mine so i can try and copy it for you anyway.

And you're doing great. Outrunning your DH and everything!

I love walks! DH and I go hiking alot in the reservation by us in the summer and that really helps because you dont even feel like you're working out. Def drag your guy along!

AAWWW Yoga isnt for me. I tried it a few times but just not my thing and I always got hurt so I do other things. Hopefully you'll feel better soon.

I agree - we push each other and motivate each other to go out - plus its time spent together without any distractions!

That means ure in better shape than you thought. GOOD! I wish i could afford a PT but probably better to wait anyway till my shoulder heals. I do love the workout the last one gave me though. Thats the only time my legs have BURNED.
