August 4, 2010 - Body Pump kind of
Back at it again. I saw the chiro in the morning and then at lunch went to a body pump class. Before the class started I did 10mins on another type of elliptical. This one was better, but I still hated it. Then the class started. I made it to the lunge track and then had to stop, thought I was going to pass out. I guess I didn't eat enough this morning. Not sure. Exhaustion also very present in my day today.

Saw the stick bug chick again. This time she was preening in the locker room. I honestly have never seen anyone spend so much time and product on the placement of each individual hair. It was frightening really. As for the class, it was great. Maya taught, she was the club manager at Vanier for a long time and she's awesome! It was also the new release, I can say for what I finished, it was evil. I will be really sore tomorrow. So far I'm just a little sore and my hip isn't hurting, so here's hoping!

August 3rd, 2010 - OMG where did the summer go?
Well I was back at it today. And by it I mean I went to the gym and worked out. No running allowed. SI joint is imflammed plus a couple of my lumbar discs aren't happy campers, so instead I used the elliptical. OMG I HATE IT!!! But it has to be done. If I do nothing I will just erase all my hard work. So that and some weights were achieved today.
View from the mat:
Can I tell you once again how much I hate that machine. So boring. Yes I did break a sweat but it's just so dull. You don't go anywhere. I do feel the same about the treadmill except I feel like I've accomplished something on it at least.
The Workout:
Elliptical - 1 mile
bicep curls - 3 x12 reps - 30lb dumbell
tricep pull down - 3 x 12reps - 30lbs
Overhead press - 3x12 repos - 25lbs
seated row - 2 x 25 reps - 45lbs
deltoid raise - 3 x 12 reps - 15lbs
situps
stretching - lots of stretching!
The Music:
I went with a shuffle of all the Glee soundtracks I got from a friend. Made the dullness that was my workout bearable!
