Hmmm....

So as I was surfing around on Self.com this afternoon....I was reading some "celebrity" blog stuff & found this too funny: (Just a snipet from an interview with Hilary Duff)

SELF MAGAZINE: You credit pilates with your weight loss?

HILARY DUFF: With everything! Seriously, my body changed in three weeks. I've always been really muscular; that's why pilates is good for me. I have broad shoulders and if I do weights or something I'll bulk up and feel manly, but pilates lengthens me out. Also you feel really powerful.



**Really? Do you know how many women read Self & probably believe this crap? She's a celebrity, she must really know her stuff.......... Anyway, just wanted to share that......don't get me started on half the stuff in print 'targeted at women'. The stuff is nonsense......**

But I digress.........HAD AN AWESOME 5:30am workout AGAIN!!!!!!! YAYA!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm just relaxing right now, then I'm heading to the gym for some more cardio.

LAKE TIME BABY!!!!!!

HAVE AN AWESOME WEEKEND, I'LL POST MONDAY!!!
LOVE~

It's getting cRaZiEr...........

Or I am, at least! :) :)
This morning Kuray & I (she's my Fiona-workout partner) were at the gym at 5:30am this morning ready to rock out arms & abs. (Yes, I repeat: 5:30am........people, this means I got up at 5am......) never knew I'd be driven to do that! :) :)

AWESOME workout, I stuck around for 20 min. stair mill & a 10 min. run. It was pretty nice to ALMOST be done working out for the day, and most people hadn't even STARTED their day!!!

Today after work I have a 35 min. cardio program (ellip & trdmill) THEN I clean house. Our groomsman, Adam, from AZ is coming into town for the weekend. We're heading to the lake tmrw, so that should be fun!

Anyway, that's my update!

Crossfit

Ohhh goodness. I survived another Crossfit workout! I'm loving these!!
Today we did:
Pushups (8X for 20 secs each----10 sec. rest in between)
Pull-ups (I had to use a step & jump....wimpy I know) (Same as above)
Air Squats (Rear touches a medicine ball, pop up, do it again)
Sit - Ups (Chest to knees)

Then finished with 45lb. plate runs..... 20 yards down and back = one. We did it 10 times..........took me over 6 mins. This about did me in..........I think it's self explanatory, but your hands are on the plate, (we're on a turf surface) and your rear is as low as you can keep it, and you push forward, tough stuff.

Anyway, came home and review a new round for turbo tonight!!!!!!!!!!

Off to get ready for work. Have a fabulous day!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love~

Legs

Just finished my Fiona workout. Kicked my booty. Now I'm home trying to get the hubby to join me for morning cardio in Schwetty's :)
This morning I'm doing 35 min. on the treadmill. Forward, then side shuffle for 25, then walk backwards, side shuffle again, then start over. Increasing the incline each round. Fun times. Harder than it sounds. Then finish with 10-15 min. on the ellip. My legs will be TOAST.
Tomorrow I'm Cross-fitting again at 6am. I hope I never lose this excitment I always feel towards Exercise. I just LOVE it. If I would get paid to workout all day, I'm pretty sure I would be one happy gal! :)
So, comment time: WHAT ARE YOUR GOALS????? WHAT KEEPS YOU GOING????

I'd love feedback. Have a fabulous day, and always keep in mind the 212 degree 'theory'

I'm Here! I'm Here!!

:) HI GUYS!
Nope, haven't stopped. Still trudging along!! :) Got a new diet! Yay! That's always exciting!!! Guess what........no oats.......we're on Cream of Rice for now....boo hoo. ANYWAY, training HARD, hitting the cardio-two 45 min. sessions a day, most days of the week.
We were at the lake this past weekend, and head there this weekend as well. Staying strong out there, tough, but manageable. (unlimited food...drinks....) again, boo hoo.
Waking up feeling leaner each day. That is good news :)
LOVE~~~~~~~~~~~~
Until tomorrow~
