Sassy Round 2: Fit for Figure

[Roonytunes]

This is just as a support for the crunches - what you are talking about comes on Sun morning in the BOSU class....

Ahh, those Bosu classes are fun....I took one at the Crunch Hollywood gym in LA while on vacation and it kicked my a#s in a major way! It was probably one of the hardest classes I've taken and there was literally a puddle of sweat around me when I was done. I want to hear what yours is like.

I've used it in the past as part of my physical therapy for some lower back problems I had last yr. Good stuff!

Well w/ intention of getting to a 9 am yoga class, I slept like crap -- we had some wild wind kick up & drive the temp down from the mid 60s down to windchills of 22 degrees - which kept me from falling asleep until about 2:30 am, woke up at 5:30 w/ the wind still howling. I ended up switching my radio on & dozed off listenign to some mindless talk show thing. However that also turned off my alarm. So I woke up when a friend called at noon. Oops...

So...

Diet:

Meal 1: 12 noon
1 whole egg + 3 egg whites
4 oz ground turkey
1/2 grapefruit

Meal 2: 4 pm
1 can tuna + mustard

*shot hoops at the gym*

Meal 3: 8 pm
2 scoops protein mix

Meal 4: 10:30pm (I'm assuming anyway...)
5 oz top round
2 c salad
1 tbsp vinegar & oil

Training: shooting hoops
Shot hoops & played a few rounds of HORSE at the gym's little 1/2 court for 1.5 hrs
- good sweat & lots of fun.

How has your back been doing?

How has your back been doing?

Pounded on it pretty good the other day - slipped during the plyo jumps and jacked it real nice. So being very careful w/ it & will be using a soft waist wrap for a while I think. Just a little support.


And of course as a result of simply shooting hoops last nite my ankles are sore. I will be wearing my high top lifting shoes today for support there too. God everything I do , I pay for later. lol

We have a new fitness club down the street that has the cardio equipment with the TV's on them - like your club, Sass. I have quite a bit of equipment at home, but now I want to go down there just to use the cardio equipment - and you guys have me all excited about a BOSU Ball class now too!!! lol

 

[Sassy69]

LOL - I have one of those 24 hr key access gyms 2 blocks from the house, a Precor in my basement in front of cable / hbo w/ DVD & sound system, and now this gym. And I still have to hire a trainer to get me excited about going to the gym. Talk about no motivation.

Anyway, diet is still tight, but not much appetite so I'm just rollign w/ it. Not really too concerned about losing muscle, although I'm supplementing w/ the Bev Int'l Ultra 40 liver tabs (protein pills basically) and aminos, so I'm covering myself pretty good that way. My ankles were very tender this morning from playing ball last nite. Hilarious - every little thing I do hurts later. I'm not THAT freekin old...

Current trainer schedule is Sunday, Tues, Fri. Carb up days will be Tues & Fri nite to support those lifting days. That keeps my lifting days pretty evenly spread out, and a kickboxing class on Wed and the rest will be various combinations of yoga, pilates, bosu, cardio, hoop'ing and what have you. Certainly not boring

Know how ya feel - I just can't get "into it." Not at all......

 

[Sassy69]

I'd say I'm "into it" now though. Long time coming, but its here! (Not to mention less than 7 weeks to the Arnold...)
