Nikki's Workout Log

But I told her how many calories are in a scoop of protein. Alas PCH, I prefer your question. I’ll get to researching the answer right away.

AustinB, that songs explains a lot about you :wink:
My question was actually rhetorical. That doesn’t “matter” if you eat at a deficit. You can’t get huge on a calorie deficit.
But I digress.
Yes Austin, I love when you talk science to me <3

On another note, I saw some interesting pants on TV last night.
They’re toning pants, OH BOY! You just put them on, and along with Reebok’s toning shoes, you can get better thighs and butt with each step.
It’s part of Reebok’s “You Can Get Fit By Not Doing Shit” collection, if you wanna look it up.

are you serious?(about the pants?!) geez

And just so anyone is curious, that isn’t really what Reebok’s collection is called…I looked it up, haha!!

Oh boy, there’s an Easytone Shirt too!!!

I wish I wasn’t serious MiM. I wish it was April Fool’s Day and I was just joshin’.
Oh the collection is Easytone. Easytone, Get Fit By Not Doing Shit… close enough :stuck_out_tongue:

This is the description for the pants (couldn’t find the commercial video)
“Resistone bans create resistance as you move; designed to tone and strengthen upper body muscles, improve posture and better body alignment”
I don’t know how it strengthens upper body muscles, they’re pants, but then again, the pants can’t even strengthen the lower body muscles so what am I talking about?

These pants also cost $80.

Wait a minute. Wouldn’t pants that cause resistance while you walk obstruct you’re walking?

You’ll end up walking like this:

Silly walks!

Wow, Resistone? Nice marketing bs!

HA! I love that episode!

Meanwhile i should just STFU b/c apparantly I walk like a duck…which, if you ask me, is all part of my feminine wiles bats eyelashes and waddles off

Just seeing if this works…

Theres some figure girls in the drop down box…something to aspire to anyway(that was a PRO show)

I love how you spend your deload entertaining us all. Toning pants. On my list to santa.

In regard to those pants. What does strengthening and toning even mean these days?

Nothing exciting going on here? Those posing pictures are pretty exciting! Not to mention the sick bench pr and Kroc rows. Keep it up!!

Yeah, I just saw those easytone clothes the other day while I was looking for more bootypants-I mean, exercise bottoms- and I almost punched my laptop. people actually BELIEVE that shit!

Nikki, those posing pix were awesome! All your hard work is showing off…especially the rear view. Damn, girl.

Those kroc rows really impressed me. The 70 for that many reps is BIG.

LMAO thank you for the entertainment Maschy and LastStand.
Yes, when you make up words like “Resistone”, it pretty much means that it works.
Someone is actually suing Reebok because the shoes aren’t what they cracked up to be. Gee, who woulda thunk? :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks for that MiM, awesome.

I’m glad to be amusing Nadia. Who knows, if you continue to be good for the remainder of the year and leave some cookies and milk out, you might get the whole EasyTone collection!

Strengthening and toning today means continuing to live your sedentary life but still able to look like Gina Aliotti without effort.
But you gotta be careful, because we can just as easily wake up looking like Iris Kyle. Waking up huge has been known to happen.

Eh Kalle, ‘awesome’ or ‘pretty wicked’ will describe those things. Exciting is doing what you do.

Plucky, it’s sad that people fall for that mess then get disappointed. Hmm, you’re eating a Big Mac but wearing EasyTone shoes so where could you possibly have gone wrong? Bah.

Thank you so much Kim.

Well, it was bound to happen. I did a DB complex tonight.
I just couldn’t take doing nothing anymore. I was restless. My house is so clean right now from the constant cleaning I’ve done just to DO something.

So I picked up 2 15 lb DBs and did 5 rounds of this complex in 30 minutes.

DB Snatches
Front Squats
Military Press
OH Lunge
Bent Over Row
DB Swings
Renegade row

10 sets of each exercise. That complex really shouldn’t have been as hard as it felt :frowning:

Last night’s cardio was torturous, since I didn’t use those muscles in forever. Today’s cardio was better.

Workout:
Circuit A:
Jump rope for 3 minutes
Seated Ab Twist with 15 lb DB for 30 seconds
20 jump lunges
OH Tricep Extensions with 2 15 lb DBs
Mountain Climbers 1 minute

Circuit B:
15 jump squats
12 step ups each leg (on 3rd step in stairwell)
Jump rope for 2 minutes
12 clap push ups
Squat with DB Press with 15 lbs, 15 reps

Did both circuits twice, and 1 minute of burpees in 30 minutes.

30 minute complex? Those are never easy. No frowny faces allowed.

Haven’t heard Last Resort in years, I used to love that song. Seems we all should get into the fitness business as a marketing ploy. Think of how gullible everyone is these days with the quick fix fitness shit. We could all market a bunch of shit and get rich. After all they’d rather have me sell them some pants and have them not work than tell them to squat.

This conversation reminds me of this vid
