Started new job, but only did 2 hours work then got to come home WOOP! So off to gym shortly with Carl to train Chest, then more cardio, then posing practise.

Have bargained with Karen (she said she'll think about it) that if I lose 4lbs in 2 weeks can I have a cheat? She said 'We'll see how you're looking' so I'd best get working!

Morning Flick....anuthorised cheat....mmmmmm......slurrrrp....what are you going to have?.........dribbles down t-shirt in anticipation....lol

Have a good one....  :)

I'm not thinking about it, cos personally, I don't think I'll get one...

But trying to get one is making me work double hard, esp since I am really struggling to get my HR over even 90 BPM atm!

Good incentive.

I had exactly the same issue with my heart rate last year too Flick. I measured my bloody pressure and it was very low...can't remember exactly but something along the lines of 90/65!! When I told Tania she just turned round and said it was no wonder my heart wasn't beating that much LOL!!

Nice new spikes. but boo to zero carb day.
I managed to get my heart rate up to 120bpm last night had to run up hill on 15% incline!  Any ideas on getting it higher for you? Have a good day hun xx

Kels, I don't wanna do anything too high intensity tbh... Today I did X-Trainer L10 Around the World and just got it over 120bpm by busting my a$$...

No track today, too tired, menstrual, and zero-carbed...

BUT trained Back and got 2 PB's!!! BRING IT!

Low Row machine 60kgs 8 reps WOOP!
Lat pulldown machine
Barbell Shrug 100kgs 8 reps WOOP!
Lower Back ROM

20mins X-Trainer Around the World L10
1 round of posing

Am off for another nap now... :-)
Kitty I remember - I told Karen bout that too, she said the same used to happen to her too during prep, but the difference is she said I'm much younger than she was! What kind of HR did you aim for when yours got low?

My Blog!
http://flickfit.wordpress.com

I was supposed to be aiming for 130-140 but was lucky to get it to 110 some days. During an hours session it might have gone up to 120 for a short while but that was only when going up a VERY steep hill. As things were working anyway I stopped worrying about it and just got on and enjoyed the fact that I must have been so fit to be like that   The only thing that really got it over 130 was the summit trainer which I tried to get on at least once a week when I went for a catch up with Paul.

Kitty - that's good to know thanks :-) I just work as hard as I can, which this week, has been really chuffing hard!

Arrival of monthly has spurred me on more because obs my weight is really erratic and I'm determined to eek out a loss this week...

30mins CV done, rode my bike spin stylee down to Old Portsmouth, then did some stair running and fast-paced walking around the city walls

Oooer, that's not good. You need to try sneaking off to the loo and grab something to eat in future

Sponsored by Muscle Finesse  

Normally it'd be fine... Bad thing is, in those 6 hours, I was only hungry in the last hour... :-(

Pretty sure I'm not gonna lose again this week... I lost the plot big style today with PMT and have spend most of the afternoon booing, begging Carl to let me give in. I've got 7-9 weeks to go still and I don't wanna be fighting to lose even half a kilo in that time... Just completely hit a wall and busting my a$$ yet nothing's happening. This week, an extra 1.5hours of cardio in total has been added to my routine and a leg workout - yet I can see clearly I'm looking no different. Everytime I prep the same thing happens, I swim through to the last 2-3kgs, then nothing budges and I get dispondent and wanna throw in the towel. That's what makes a winner and I don't think I am one... :-( Just wish I hadn't started carb cycling, at least I was losing 1lb a week before, not even losing that now... I'm getting NO REWARD for doing more! Fecks me right off.

Anyway, we went to beach this eve, with Delta for about an hour. Hope the sea air's made me tired enough to pass out. I'm soooooo incredibly exhausted my legs felt like lead going over the stones.

Kels sent me a lovely card today and a toy for Delta (which she loves cos it's pink) - thankyou my love, it's a lovely gesture :-)

Please no advice on this occasion, not in a place where I can take any, just some huggles please :-)

Lots of hugs from me and you know we (as in those of us who have been there before) know how you feel and you know that it'll pass but in the meantime it feels like forever.

Anyway, just told hubbie you're planning on packing it in and he says you can't cos your arse is too good on stage for him to miss

Kitty - tell him it wobbles, I promise...And only looks attractive in a thong... From where I've not been training legs I do think my bum's suffered :-/

Dazc - just frustrated and sick of working hard with no rewards... Give me a pizza goddamit! And some ToffeeCrisp popcorn...

I've just started re-training everything as from last week and will do now for the foreseeable future... Hams kept good size and shape, I can even see 'em move for the first time ever... Glutes suffered from lack of SLDL's, despite me squeezing them on the treadmill every time I walk!

Trained Shoulders first thing this morning, managed 18kg DB Shoulder Press so I've one thing to praise myself for I guess :-)

Hope I have the strength to get through the BH weekend going out for dinner with friends unscathed... I'd cancel if I hadn't seen them for so long to be honest...
