Missed One Day of Blogging -- ARRGG

YEHHHH .. I will have a somewhat OFF week ... only YOGA, STRETCHING and CORE.  I so look forward to not doing any pullups or pushups.  I will admit that I love that I'm LIFTING more and able to actually FEEL the muscle development ... but I was getting WORN out !!!

Funny ... hehehehe ... I pushed myself MORE, when I knew that it would be my last week doing them ... okay, it was funny to me ((( sticking tongue out ))).  Broke my exercise bands ... they were not the right type anyhow ... they were supposed to be used on my rebounder.  I just unsnapped them and used them ... only to find out they were not HEAVY enough (( but they did serve their purpose )).

The pullup bar that I'm using (( the PERFECT PULLUP bar )) ... you can lower it halfway to do what they call "Australian Pullups" ... therefore I'm able to do more (similiar to the ones you do, while assisting yourself with a chair).

Loved, LoVED, LOVED doing Kenpo again ... hubby even got in there with me ... he showed me how to use my body (( especially my HIPS )) to do BETTER punches.   I was not PIVOTING enough on the balls of my feet ... could have caused some injury to my knees and ankles.  I truly FELT like I was kickboxing and I absolutely LOVED it.  Did I tell ya'll I LOVE KENPO???

My plan for Superbowl Sunday:
  • Ab Ripper
  • 30" of Treadmill
  • Stretch
  • Try not to EAT too MUCH
  • Drink ALOT of WATER
  • Get in BED EARLY
I need to be up tomorrow morning at 3:30 am ... yeh, bummer right?  So looks like I will be watching the second half of the Superbowl online.  I'm getting IN THE BED no later than 8:30 - 9:00 pm.

How my body has changed in THREE WEEKS:
  • My traps (muscle between neck and shoulder area) are more pronouced
  • More definition in my shoulders and delts (top muscle of your outside arm)
  • Starting to see more definition in my biceps and triceps ... more separation
  • My legs are slimming down, especially around my knee and upper thigh area
  • Much stronger in my upper body - able to perform more pushups and pullups
  • More definition in my obliques (outside abdominal muscle); slimmer waistline
  • Weight is still fluctuating (all over the place), but I can definitely see the INCH LOSS
