Congrats on the PR! Yep, 180 is definitely in sight.
Thank you, ladies!! I have no choice but to do it, now :-H
Training today was interval sprints on the treadmill…sucky weather.
1 min ON/ 1 min OFF 8 rounds, 20 minutes total.
Agreed… you def have 180 right now!
Side note on ab rollouts - make sure you don’t feel ANY PRESSURE in your lower back when you do them… this is showing that your abs aren’t working hard enough and aren’t doing what they’re supposed to do with the exercise. So if you do feel any pressure, squeeze your abs harder and try to flatten your back more.
Okthxbiefornow
Oh yeah, 180 is right there! Good stuff on the interval sprints. I should get back to doing those!
Ok so I did my rep work on Friday…blah, blah, blah.
Shoulder still funky…boo.
Got my body fat tested by the disapproving trainer. Down by 4.5% but my body weight went down by only a pound. He asked me if I started doing cardio…Nope, said I was thinking about it.
Training
warm up, foam rolling
Trap bar deads
135 x 5
185 x 5

That sucks that your shoulder still isn’t feeling great - hope it improves soon!
Way to go on dropping 4.5% body fat - you must be happy about that!
Nice trap bar deads. Wish my gym had one of those. Do you find you feel them more in your quads than regular deads?
tried doing the ab roller thingy after reading your workout last week. Kinda stared at it for a minute, tried it, and decided it was laughing at me so I switched to something else. It looks so inoffensive…
I’ve not yet tried the static hold BB lunges, but I can imagine the suckage.
One of my rehab exercises is doing side lunge holds and that really, really blows.
'sup, Skye!
did the blown rotten eggs knock you out? is school out yet? (ya, i’ve got catching up to do!) hope your shoulder is better.
Yay Skye!! Looks be-u-ti-ful! A girl after my own heart…
Congrats on the exams. Relax and have fun!
NICE!!!
Thanks so, so much for the beach picture. I hope reality didn’t bite you too hard.
Skye, this is your log. Call me.
(I know, same joke, diff log. Im funneh:)
T, for you…I got shitfaced at a wine-tasting because I don’t believe in wasting and I’m too cheap to buy all my favorite ones.
I thought they were very generous with 11 different wines including the port and sherry…then we went back and insisted on tasting the sparkling wine as well.
Good times.

HAHAH! Awesome! This is clearly why I like you.
Nice to see you back Skye and in fit form! 260 Dl, excellent as per usual. Great stuff girl!
That wine tasting event sounds wonderful. I wouldn’t have wasted either. If you’ve got KB in you “shitty commercial gym” it’s already less shitty than mine:)
