Sassy: July 2006 - 41 & CA Bound

[Sassy69]

Eh, took yesterday off from training. No particular reason I guess. Lack of direction in whatever I'm going to do next.

19 Sept 2006 (Tues)
--------------------

House: nuttin

Job: no updates

Diet: still tight. I have no appetite for anything except jalapenos.

Training -- it was so random today. Ended up doing a really random full body thing w/ a couple suggestions from a guy at the gym but didn't get to talk long enough to get sort of the whole "flow" of a complete workout so it just got to be more of a supersetting of "stuff"... ."Weider Confusion Principle" LMAO! -- The general idea is still full body but more dynamic motions super setting - e.g. clean & press + curls

6 min cardio warmup
Super:
- clean & press: bar + 20/10 x 3
- ezbar curl: 40/10 x 3
Super:
- lat pull ups: bodywt/5 x 2 -- found that little tweak I had in my lats from this summe r-- backed off the last set
- cable tri rope presses: 60/10 x 2
--- since the last set of pull-ups interrupted I switched over to DB tri kickbacks: 20/12 x 2
Super:
- Hammerstrength Press: 70/10 x 3
- HS row: 90/10 x 3
Super:
- leg ext (8 TUT): 85/12 x 3
- sliding calf raise: 120/45 x 3

This was a very cardio-oriented workout -- definitely huffing thru each superset so I called that "cardio" and went home

Yeah, that looks like a great workout from here I know what ya mean bout those super sets too... alot of times that is a cardio workout in itself, same with high reps if ya do it intense!

Hope you had a great day as well!!!!!

Keep your head up high girly. Sometimes you need a day off to get motivated.

Workouts looking great can't wait till you hit the stage again, and who knows maybe I can make it wherever and whenever that is, would love to hang with you again. This time no early departure though

Cheers,

You know it! Have to see where life leads me -- the BB competition is up for grabs --- I've got so many aches & pains that flare up from lifting that I have to reassess what I'm doing - but definitely looking for some goals. I think my buddy at the gym will put together an interesting routine for me and I'm really excited about it.

And I will tell you there is nothing I would look forward to more than another chance to strut my shit on stage for EF!

Or just hang out & chug beers w/ a guy in a kilt!

Good luck with the interview Sass!
What kind of protein bars do you eat? I'm trying find a good one. So far my favorite (taste and content-wise) is MHP's macrobolic bar.

 

[dutch diva]

Good luck!!

My 2 cents on the bars are sensations and Allmax isoflex...YUMMY!

Whats going on with the knee Sassy? I may have missed a post on it.... reverse lunges take alot of knee pain out of my workouts..
