Fi's Mission back to Profile Pic (p66)

Well hi!! Great to see you Sat wasn't it a fab day! Keep up the FAB work xx

It was *fabby* nice to put a face to the name, you've got a cracking figure kels!

Defo got my RRRrrrrrrrAAAAaaaaaaaaaHHHHHHhhh turbo charged!
Had a bit of a weird day today, never made it to gym made a few too many appointments for myself with day off, but did stick to diet and am all prepped for week ready to ZooomChooChoo!

One of my appointments was with Physio, he's given me some rehab excercises for back, my left, erm, just under my shoulder blade's not firing properly, so my shoulder is compensating. Basically I just have to concentrate on keeping the shoulder down and drawing it back and contracting the Lat before I bring the arm back, just like backafter16years mentioned in another thread. Lohani told me off at the seminar last year for using my traps too much in my shoulder WO, so I must still be careful of that too. 

Kitty was amazing at the w/e and gave me some faulous posing practice/ pointers, and as a few have commented, one of my figures strong points are my lats, and I have a nice shaped bum too!!

Glad to see you're still chuckling away missy! Hopefully Kitty gave you enough pointers r.e. diet.

Isn't it funny we all see bits of us in you (thinking about what Kitty said to you on Sunday). I see my frame of mind like yours - well mine was, then my magic man fixed me and now I think I'm the mutt's nuts tee hee! ;-)

Yes, kitty was a complete star.

So day one of all my new found knowledge and advice, great day!
5.45am Pre-Cardio espresso, then 40min powerwalk as it was such a gorgeous morning, cold but gorgeous, the bunny wabbits and a fox were out and a very picturesq mist across the river, but no time for photos ops I was on a mission!
Meal1: 7am – 5 egg whites+1whole egg scrambled & 35g oats made with water with splenda, cinamen and mixed spice. Eggs are ok kinda cold at gym but the oats were foul, lol! So gonna take dry tomorrow and get some hotwater from bar to hydrate there.
Meal2: 10am – 70g cooked weight brown rice & 85g chicken + tesco magic grinder aka garlic grinder, it’s magic it makes everything taste better! Altho not sure about the oats this am!?!
Meal3: same as 2
Meal4: same as 2/3 + salad, broccoli, corgette and green beans LOTS of magic grinder! Posted pic on FB as I thought it looked particularly good!
Meal5: AAAAaaaRRRrrrGGgggggHHHhhh, I mis-counted my meals! Luckily I had a maximuscle bar in my bag, 18g protein & carbs so ok, but not the plan; more chicken and rice and. ... you guessed it magic grinder! Have just made these up for rest of week.
Meal6:  bit of a late one as mark arrived home same time so he delayed me wanting to chat, GGgggRRrrr, after WO had 1 scoop ProRecover MMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmm, OMYGOD!!!! How do CNP make all their products SOOOOOooooooOOOO tasty??!!?? Back home after shower have just had meal 1 but blended together and cooked like an omletty-pancake with a lime squeezed over the top and some splenda, tasty! I don’t like having a classic dinner type meal so late, feel fine to lie down and get to sleep now, just finishing my pukka night time T.

Sounds like a lovely place you're walking, makes it so much easier to get out of bed when you know there's something nice to look at rather than 4 walls and other equipment!!
Get cooking and chatting at the same time...your food is more important  (show Mark this )

Mmm, parks great, I don't actualli wear my headphones I like the peace and quiet at 6am, all the widlife just waking up and no background trafic noise, mmm, s'nice
The fox was cocky as you like strolling thru the gym carpark! There's loads of them down here and as I say cocky but they probably have to be to feed themselves and cubs?

Another 40min walk this am, a bit damp but just dewey & cloudy not wet and nowhere near as cold as yesterday!
Meals the same as yesterday bar 6pm when I had rice chhkn.
The raw veggies on meal 4 are helping no end!
an hours cardio tonight 20 stairmaster and 30 treadmill, got bored on treadmill so did last 10 back on stairmaster.
Then did some weighted crunches (3/4 x 10), one of the instructors showed me how to do them using the plate of the assited dip/ pull up machine, it'll be good variation, you can get a great range of movement.
Now late having supper but mark let me interupt prison break to do my quater turns and a few poses before I hopped in shower He WILL get invloved and help me, even if it's just watching me pose in my undies and not cooking my oaty/ omellette pancake whilst I'm in the shower!?!

It's raining at mo, hopefully it stops by am for walkies.
xx
Nite Nite all xx

Foxes are cocky mofo's!

Morning missis..that was a great post...I love reading this...big up on the job thing..head hunted hey...whooo hooo missis!....and trousers falling off...mmmm.....good excuse for new ones perchance?...and what the blobby dobby is a magic grinder?....I've bin scratching ma poor nooodle over this one all night!!! ....hope you had a good sleep and today is ouf course FRIIIIIIIIDDDDAAAAAAAY!!!!!!

whoo hooooooooooooooo

Did you not do anything else in place of the skullcrushers? What bar are you using? The EZ/curl bar is better and only weighs 10kg so can't see you struggling with that with what you are pressing........and by the way it should be biceps with chest . The EZ bar is also easier on the wrists during the movement. If you still struggle with these then you could switch to dumbells but be careful of cracking your head with them like I usually do

If you're getting a stitch on the treadmill just slow it down a little, the incline is good to work on the glutes so don't completely sacrifice it. Up the stepper to 30mins too or if you find the duration of the peaks too long to sustain then split the program into 2 lots of 15mins.

Great news on being headhunter, it's good booster for the ego and get you with the baggy trousers and celebrity articles !!

Seriously, well done on stepping up the mark this week. Be interesting to see the weight/inch loss but the fact that you're at the stage where trousers are getting baggy is so lifting.
