Que's Journey begins

[BiggT]

Well I survived day 1 of 2nd week of am cardio. I need to start stretching because I've noticed that I'm not as flexible as I think I should be. Looks like I'll be hunting a yoga video. I have PM Yoga on VHS but the dvd player is hooked up to the tv and I don't really wanna move the entire entertainment center 2 times a day to change connections. Might hunt down that switching station thingy that I know I have somewhere.

The body is always stiff in the mornings anyway, so it may not even be your overall flexibility. AM cardio is a great idea, also, don't be afraid to throw in some abs or some back hypers and lots of stretches. Think of the AM session as sort of a primer to the PM weightlifting.

I would like to blame it on mornings by my flexibility is very poor in the evenings as well.

Well it's 5 am and I'm outta bed getting ready for pilates & then getting ready for work. My legs are feeling really tired & my calves hurt. DOMS for sure this week.

Unless my daughter changes her mind, tonite is an off nite for the gym because I get to babysit my punkin. Hopefully it won't be raining or cold and I can take her for a walk.








Merms...grab one of P's in each hand andddddddddd GROPE 2 3 4.......GROPE 2 3 4
Have to keep those fingers strong.
If M were here I'd skip the pilates and do a few cheek curls myself.
