I just love doing chin-ups, don’t you? It makes me feel all powerful and stuff.

Are you still going to be training with Wolf?
Hmm, good question.[/quote]
Tootles, to answer your question, no. I’m really trying to stay out of trouble because I have too much going on right now. I think I have all the tools I need moving forward, a great eating pattern which is yet to fail me which I can use with any workout. Granted, I have alot to learn but I can always ask. There’s a wealth of knowledge on this site alone, not to mention the members.
Today’s training
warm up,
Sprints: I tried my hand at 200s since school has resumed and the upper field where the track is is open longer.
Holy crap, is all I have to say. And the heat and humidity did not help. It will be a nice shock for my body.
10 x 200m
Today’s training:
warm up, activation
Incline DB press: 1x9(20), 1 x 10(20), 1 x 8(25)
Sumo DL: 2 x 9(185), 1 x 8(195)
SA DB Rows: 1 x 9(35-warm up), 1 x 9 (40), 1 x 7(45-PR!)
Bulgarian split squat: 3 x 9(25)
Ab wheel: 3 x 9
Can’t wait to start 5/3/1!!!

Seriously. Part of my blackbelt test is a 5 mile run and I’d rather fake an appendicitis attack.

I’m just a skinny chick trying to put on some muscle. I can’t afford to do cardio.

You’re absolutely right.
I’d probably lose my lunch at some point and there on henceforth, starting a dangerous trend…

nonononono… you leave just as the nausea hits. if u aim for produce on the way out you’ll be alright, no one goes where the green veggies are.
but if u do start that trend i know a website where you’ll find a lot of support.

I laughed my ass off, literally.
I’m off to take some pictures of it and post them around the house.
Then I’m going to the other side to ask for opinions.
I think I need to work on my glute-ham tie in.
Today: OFF DAY
Ran hill sprints: 10 x 75 yards.
Instead of my quads, I feel it in my hams/glutes. My ex suggested suicides on the tennis courts as a variation. I’ll definately try that this week. He’s probably trying to kill me
