We can post however we see fit - daily, weekly, whatever.
The point is to keep us motivated, and share workout ideas with each other. I am hoping we can all learn some new strength training moves, and some great workout ideas when we are in a slump!!!
any Questions - FM me!
Happy training!!!!

Re: OFFICIAL WORKOUT LOG OF 2006!
Sunday 1/1 - 45 minutes of Precor. I was sick all weekend so this was pure torture - I usually do 50 minutes but was feeling SO sickly I had to stop. I took yesterday off cause I was feeling so sick, but will start up again today. I plan to do 50 minutes later today plus if I am feeling up to it 15 minutes of squats, leg lifts, etc.....

Re: OFFICIAL WORKOUT LOG OF 2006!
I was supposed to go to kickboxing tonight, but FH wants me home to give his daughter her b-day gifts before with him before he brings her home to mom - her b-day was on the 1st, and he couldnt see her that day... I work til 7:30 - she needs to be home at around 8ish, KB is at 8:30 - oh well....
BUT - I did manage to do another weight workout this morning!!!

*50 push ups - 10 on my toes, 40 on my knees - I never was good at them - here's hoping eventually ALL on my toes!!!!
*Bicep Curls - 10 lbs, 3 sets of 12
*Bicep Isolation curls 10 lbs, 3 sets of 8
*Tricep Kickbacks 5 lbs, 3 sets of 12
*Squats - 10 lb dumbells in each hand - 3 sets 12

Re: OFFICIAL WORKOUT LOG OF 2006!
I go to the gym 3X or 4X per week. I do cardio two days, and two days I do some cardio plus weights (my heart rate usually stays up during the weights). I go to a NYSC near my job in the AM and work out, then shower and go to work.
I would like to do 4X to 5X per week this year.

Re: OFFICIAL WORKOUT LOG OF 2006!
Last night I did 50 minutes of Precor elliptical - increasing the incline every 3 minutes (then decreasing it and going backwards). 11000 strides, 625+ calories.
FH worked out with me for the first time! He used to work out ALL the time before we got really serious (and became couch potatoes) - so hopefully we can motivate each other to stay at it

Re: OFFICIAL WORKOUT LOG OF 2006!
Okay, this is so lame but... We got our daughter one of those dance mats that you hook up to a video game system for chirstmas. They have this program where you do all the dances and they count calories for you and tell you the equivalent of how many miles you've jogged. So I have been 'playing' for about a half hour every other day. Gosh, I am such a geek.

Brod,
What kind of foot injury was it? You can still do exercises that do not involve your foot so you wouldn't need to wait until March (with your trainer) to start exercising You can do things on your own to at least get your body accustomed to some kind of muscular activity.
Happy new year!
I bruised two bones - fractured another and pulled the two tendons that run along both sides of my foot. The injury was on July 4th. I was a soft cast first with crtuches. Then I moved on to a brace, but when that did not help me enough my doctor put in a walking cast. I came out of the walking cast in October. Up until now I could hardly do any aerobics.
I tried to keep up with weight training, but I just was not motivated because I was in pain all the time. Now I can at least use the ellipitcal trainer.
I met with the personal trainer yesterday and he did tell me that I don't need to wait until March.
Sorry for the long response, and thanks for the advice.

it's great that you are weight training! But I just wanted to give you a little advice, if tyou don't mind. 30 reps to WAY too much! you are wasting time, and I don't want that to happen.
use a higher weight, and do at most 12 reps per set, you will see amazing results, really fast.
