It's Just a Ride! And it's time to hold on tight!!!!

Still alive n kicking

I've trained really hard this week and loved every minute of it. Did a 5 day split and did 90mins cardio at least every day exept friday which was 45 mins I think. I'm trying Animal Cutz for a few weeks to see how/if they work before we start selling them. My diet during the week was really clean but slipped up a wee bit these past 2 days. Nothing to drastic though, a couple of glasses of wine and a cheat pudd tonight after dinner. See what the rest of the week brings.

Animal cutz.....sound good....do they work on Shih Tzus Hubbie and I have just been saying how tubby our little pups tum is a she's not been on as many long walks this summer with the weather not being brill.

PMFSL!!!!!!!! I'll give u a pack to try on her but I relinquish all responsibility

OOOOO Can you do me a favour and if you do come up on Thurs can u bring ur calipers. I have no idea what my BF is and it would be cool to find out exactly how tubby I am lol!

No worries!!!

Top Stuff!

It was a bit of an effort to get into the swing of things today but we got there in the end. Did some wee chesticles.
Incline Bench
Flat
Dips
One hand cables
Pullover press combination.
3 sets 8012 of each except the cables which was 4 sets.

Food has been very good today but it seems irrelevant how I eat I don't seem to gain or lose weight. I'll have to look into this a bit more to see where I'm going wrong....appart from the obvious glasses of wine and choc pub PMSL

Trained earlier than usual today as I have to be in this afternoon to wait for the architect. I did an hours treadmill before my workout having a chat and waiting for Space Cadet to turn up which she dutifully did just before 11.
Hams and bottoms today went as follows.

Superset x 6
DB Ham Lying Ham Curls x 15 25lb DB
Ham Extension with pole x 15
Superset x 6
Calve Raises on Leg Press x 15 90kg
Hyperextensions x 20
Finished off with 4 sets of SLDL x 15. Not too sure what the weight was but probably around 15kg.

Well give me plenty of time to chill out this afternoon before I get ready to go and see one of my favourite bands The Old Crow Medicine Show at Manchester Academy this evening. I can't wait, they are fantastic. Probably one of the best live bands I have EVER seen. I'll be taking my camera and hope to get some good shots too and have a wee bop as far as my legs will allow.

ello just popped by to see how you are. How's your tum, has it healed well and niggles or twinges? glad to see your enjoying your training and I hope the wine and pudding was good

Tummy Tucker is doing just fine and dandy. I hardly even think about it now. And just tell me when wine and choccy pub doesn't taste lush LMFAO

Hey you!! Have a lovely time tonight. I'll be thinking of you bopping whilst I'm nodding off.

Oh a boppin I shall be! Not made a t*t of meself for a while!

So how was the bopping??

The gig was absolutely fantastic! So energetic with 1000% put into each tune. The place was pretty rammed and I was sweating like a fat bird in Manchester but I managed to secure myself a wee bopping spot of about a square ft lol. Took some great pictures and video'd one of the songs which I will Utube. I might even post a couple of the pics if I can work out how to do it lol. All in all a fantastic evening. Had 3 alchopops because they were in plastic bottles and so didn't have to think about spilliges whilst toetapping. Got another good night on Saturday. Fav local band (they supply the tunes to Paul's youtube clips and have also edited music for him to pose to) Then off to a club house reopening. Just have to make sure to pack some food to keep us going lol!

Fat bird

I've just got the idea of a calliper party in my head now making me chuckle!! Luckily they haven't been near me for a good few months now... If I don't see them again til at least next June I won't complain...

I feel like a caliper virgin....just hope she's gentle with me PMSL!

I trained on my own today as Space Cadet was out walking (or trying to lose???) her mother. Paul kept me company though by flicking elastic bands at me and then wrapping them round my feet as they were on the bench while I was doing bench dips....he's just sooooooooooo helpful sometimes...it's so touching

I did a 20 min warm up then another 40 mins on the good old treadmill after me workout.

I didn't get to the gym until after 1pm today so the day went pretty quickley. By the time I'd finished with everything - eating, sunbed, training, cardio, eating - it was time for Paul to train and then home sweet home...via Morrisons. What can I say, my life is just a blurr lmfaoooooooooo!

Hey there, glad you seem to have recovered well and are training properly again. Keep it up.

The calliper party was great and Tania kept me nice and warm with the heating on

Lovely to see you again Mrs. As I said in my journal, when all the dieting is out the way for us all then we shall have to have a nice social evening

Thanks Redman...things going forwards!

Cheers for doing my tubby count Hunny! And the night out is a date for sure.

So I now know what my BF is and it's 30% according to Miss K's measurements. I now have base line number 1. I am definitely going to get Paul to do some pictures in the next couple of days to get base line 2. I'll take some measurements for numero 3 and use the pooey scales as the reserve lol. I may even post the pics up....or send them to Kitty after having tried to work out how to post then unsuccessfully for 3 hours PMSL.

I feel like my training and diet is going pretty well THB. And I'm enjoying it tons so that's half the battle....well it's not even a battle really because I enjoy it. Space Cadet and me train so well together and we really push each other and gave a giggle at the same time. She's as nutty as squirrel sh*t.

I had 90 mins of massaging to do today so I kept my cardio to 40 mins. These people pay me to do a job and it's not fair if I've run out of steam and am unable to give them an effective treatment and I pride myself in doing my job well.....another 3 hours worth tomorrow between 3pm - 8pm. And got the cable man coming to put a proper pic on our TV so I won't be training back tomorrow but may be able to fit in a bit of treadmilling!
