Okay my trainer is officially fired. Going to the gym and doing the same routine I did last time. Have to pull out my Cosgrove book and design my next work out.

Hi attydeb!
That circuit sounds killer! Good stuff and great progress thus far.
I also highly recommend the Cosgrove/Schuler book New Rules…seriously changed my body![/quote]
THanks Masch! I have the book! I recommended it to Greeny the other day :-)[/quote]
Yeah, I walked past Border’s today and thought "i need that book!’ But I couldn’t remember what it was. Gonna put it in my BB so I can get it tomorrow.

Good! No one has the right to tell anyone to “get the fuck over it.” Ironic that he is the one who helped you gain the power to tell him to fuck off!

Exactly!! And I told him that in the email. Great minds think alike Green.
Hey, I know you did the right thing and there’s no doubt that you’ll improve without him.
He had ZERO professionalism. “If I couldn’t give you 100% of myself, i’m not going to train people…”
What kind of shit is that?
I’m telling my manager that i’m not coming to work, because I don’t think I can give him 100% of myself today… He’ll be ok with that, no doubt. Ass.
Exactly, Hungry. That’s how things work in the real world, right? I doubt he will ever learn. A shame.
Well, I’m headed to the beach in W. Seattle and pulled out the bathing suit top and the skirt I love that goes with it that used to be too tight. I thought “now it will fit.” Not even close!
WOW!! That’s OUTSTANDING! Doesn’t that make you feel awesome?
Having to buy new stuff cause you keep shrinking is a great motivator…keep it up!
Just caught up.
You’re kicking ass and throwing shit.
I think I like you.
Thanks MiM. Thanks CBear

True. I have a few items for warmer weather but I need to start adding more. The best part is, I actually enjoy shopping for clothes now.
5/16/10 work out:
65 lb squats 5 x 10
70 lb seated rows 1 x 5
65 lb seated rows 1 x 6
60 lb seated rows 3 x 6
70 lb lat pulldowns 5 x 8
55 lb push press 1 x 5
push ups 5 x 5
I have finally achieved a full push up with correct form – started my push ups on bars, working my way to the floor, then band assisted. Long road to haul and I’m really excited about this. I think push ups are a great indicator of strength.
Tonight I’m doing the Cosgrove metabolic body weight routine that Freckle posted on Greeny’s log. I have a friend who’s been working with me during my fat burning circuits (luring her away from the steady state cardio) so we’ll give this one a try.
A real pushup with good form! That is very, very awesome. I remember feeling the same rush of accomplishment after finally being able to do them for the first time.
Now onwards to T pushups and decline pushups. No resting upon laurels…

Ha…yes ma’am!! This is how we progress, right?
Let me know if it kicked your ass, attydeb! And congrats on those push-ups - that is some strength, you’re right. Once you got to the floor, what was your “band assisted” push-up? I’m still on the bar but looking forward to 5 of my own …
Hey Freckleface! Where have you been?
