haha…bobbling on noodles.
I must have missed the part where you are a swimmer. Swimming is awesome.
I used to swim in high school and I have the itch to get back in the water even though I KNOW what it will do to my hair, my precious hair. Oh well, it will be a very casual thing now, no meets to train for and I can take a break whenever I want. Anyway, today’s training went like this
Recovery Squats:
barx10
135x5
185x5
Close Grip Bench:
barx10
65x8
95x8x5
Deadlifts:
135x5
185x3
205x3x2
230x7
135x5
Chin ups:
6x6
Lat pull downs
Curls
Hyperextensions
PWO nutrition was Thai coconut curry with chicken and tofu mmmm, it was from my favorite place and a new recipe that had tamarind in it sooo delicious!!!
I totally understand about the hair. I spend way too much money on mine to ever consider dunking my head in a pool.
7 @ 230 for the deadlifts is awesome.
heya owlie!
totally drooling over those 6 x 6 chins. love it.
I got back in the pool. I swore I would take it easy because it was my first time swimming(as a workout) since shortly after I graduated high school. Pride got the better of me, and I pushed myself, of course. Somehow this always happens during cardio. I have this voice in my head that says “just a little bit longer…just a little bit faster…” and once my heart rate gets up I can’t get it to shut up. Anyway, here is what I did:
200yrd free w/u
4x100yrd fast pace free-rest :15
6x75yrd IM order moderate pace-rest :10
2x150yrd free steady moderate pace-rest :30
8x25yrd free all out sprint-rest :20sec
200IM focus on form
8x50yrd backstroke fast but not sprint rest :20
500yrd cool down whatever I wanted dicking around.
Not too much yardage, but my conditioning is definitely down from high school duh. I noticed a marked improvement between the beginning and end of the workout, though so I suppose I will take back to swimming like a fish back to…you know…anyway, It was really liberating to make up my own workout on the fly. Much more enjoyable than a coach breathing down my neck. I may have killed my shoulder though. I guess we will have to wait until tomorrow to find out. Shark owl. Holy shit my stomach is RUMBLING. I forgot how hungry swimming makes a person. Time to eat.
The first thing I noticed was that elephant lookin thing…does that make me, uh, hetero? haha!
Lookin mighty fine!!
haha its a monkey…
You have such a fab physique! Delish!
So you do butterfly? I’m impressed! That takes some serious strength and a stronger-than-strong cardio base.
I’ve have swimming on my list of questions for my next surgeon visit. Can I swim? I just do breast and freestyle.
lookin fantastic owlie. very athletic, love it.
Owlie, I’m so jealous of your shoulders…
and your quads.

Once again, the long torso comes into play. I do swim the fly. 100yard fly was actually one of my specialties in high school…well I pretty much did everything except breast in because I just didn’t “get” what it took to have speed there. I think I get it now though after squatting. If your surgeon will let you, you should see about doing some kicking workouts with a kick boardbecause you can still get a rowdy workout that way. Snapper gonna have some HUEG wheels!!!

Awh, thank you gurl. Your ass is ftw. I have a lot of areas to bring up(like biceps, the only work they ever see is during chin ups), but you know what that kind of excites me and gives me a lot to look forward to!!
My biceps don’t get much attention either. But I’m TRYING to be a good girl and have 2 accessory days a week where I isolate my biceps so they can be worked other than just in compound lifts.
And thank you 
WOW!!! OWLIE!!!
you are gorgeous! And your physique is outstanding! You seriously have a total magazine worthy form! You look as awesome as your lifts!! :)!! I am so impressed !!:)!!!
hurray for swimming! its so damm harrrrrrrrrrd :P!!
Hey thanks Sindie! You have a fiiiine figure yourself, and your lifts have been my motivation for many workouts and pushed me through some hard reps so you have helped get me where I am now for real. thanks for that!!
Squats:
barx10
135x5x2
185x3
205x3
210x3
215x3
220x4(PR)-felt great, in retrospect, I should have kept adding weight today and seen where I ended up…
145x12x3-did these with as little rest as possible
leg press
standing leg curls
calves in leg press
awesome PR Owlie:)
Yeah, if you hit 220 for four reps and it felt easy, you shoulda kept pushing, girl. Days with exceptional strength can be few and far between.
killer squats and damn you’re looking good mam!
I’m so glad I came out of hiding and peeked in here! Beee-u-tiful bikini pic 
Its all been said, but you really do have an amazing physique - its strong, lean, portioned - totally athletic and still soft…From head to toe, you’re simply gorgeous and the muscle is poppin’!
/end love fest
Awesome work on the Squat PR! 220 is ridic.

Totally agree w/Snap !
Pics are awesome, you’re are built, and with those legs no wonder you’re a squatting machine.
