Hey Shapeshifters!
I normally do my yoga/crunches/pushups right before bed, but I just went and did them now (and I'm finishing up the last bit of my 64oz of water) so that I can post this week's results now!!
Here's my Week 2 summary:
CARDIO:
Monday - intense ashtanga yoga class
Tuesday - speed run
Wednesday - 2.5 mile run
Thursday - hilly run
Friday - off
Satuday - 5K race!!
Sunday - elliptical
6 days = 30 pts
STRENGTH:
Monday - crunches/pushups
Tuesday - crunches/pushups + weight machines
Wednesday - none
Thursday - crunches/pushups + weight machines
Friday - crunches/pushups
Saturday - crunches/pushups
Sunday - crunches/pushups + weight machines
6 days = 18 pts
WATER:
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday
7 days = 14 pts
BONUSES:
New exercise - crunches on a stability ball = 2pts
Push it - really sped up last 1/2 mile of Wednesday's run = 2pts
Push it - didn't let my day off from yoga/crunches/pushups (Wednesday) prevent me from doing them for the whole rest of the week! = 2pts
Push it - beat previous 5K race time by ALMOST TWO MINUTES on Saturday! = 2pts
Bonus total = 8 pts
PERSONAL GOALS:
Daily yoga - missed Wednesday :(
Running schedule - DONE - 5pts
Three days of weight machines - DONE - 5pts
Personal goal total = 10 pts
TOTAL WEEK 2 - 80 points - same as last week!
I am going to wait until tomorrow (Monday) to post my Week 3 goals.
One will be a daily yoga goal, which will likely be a "step up" from the yoga I did last week, and so I want to wait until my Monday evening yoga class to figure out what amount would be appropriate.
One will be a weekly running schedule. However, I have to take a bit of time to sketch out a running schedule for the next few weeks, as the one I'd been using only went up to this past race. I will, however, start things out with a 2.5 mile run tomorrow.
The third goal will involve crunches/pushups. I've been reading up on them a bit more and am thinking I'm going to change my routine... instead of trying to make myself do them everyday, I'm going to do them every other day, so there's muscle recovery time. However, I'm going to alternate days - one day crunches, one day pushups - so that every evening I'm still doing one or the other. I'd initially been worried about trying to maintain an every other day thing, since taking one day off makes it easier to take two days off, etc... but I think as long as I have a routine of doing SOME form of before-bed exercise, I might do okay with alternating the type. The stability ball certainly does seem to work my abs better than what I had been doing... so I'm going to go for more "quality" work each night, either crunches or pushups.
Since I'm not going to be doing both each night, however, they won't qualify as a 15+ minute strength workout, though... so I'm taking them as "personal goal" points and will have to rely on just my weight training at the gym to get my strength points this week! |

Great going everyone and congrats to MG and JR for actually increasing their scores this week! Way to go! We're halfway through now, let's continue to keep up our pace and we'll be unstoppable!
I've lost 7.5 pounds now so you can bet I'm going to keep it up. I've had a few people notice the difference. I feel so much better already.
We have only to wait for Larissahp's score and then we'll have them all. Musicmom dropped out so we'll have to adjust for that. If she scores exactly the same as last week--and we add in our two people average (to make 10 players)--we'll be just a bit shy of last week--851. So we're really looking good.
I think my associate and I have it all figured out.
Go team! |

| Vicki, you crack me up! When my DH first started with his current employer, he had a pretty boring, brain-dead type job. He used to come home and tell me he was having trouble training his new partner, Bonzo. That picture reminded me of that. :lol: |

What a coincidence MG--my associate's name is Bonzo. Could it be????!!!!
I started the week out with a bang. I pushed myself on the elliptical to go an extra 11 minutes--push it points. Then I did my upper body weights. My dh came home about an hour later and we hit the trails changing it up and picking a new route that is the next degree harder and longer--a lot more hills and valleys (pushing it bonus). I'm pretty beat right now--I think I'll sleep good tonight!
We're having a simple dinner tonight of grilled shrimp & scallops and steamed artichokes. Love that! And it's easy! Better hit the shower and get going--the evening goes quickly when you have to go to bed around 8!
Have a good evening all! |

Well, Bonzo did leave the county's employ several years ago... :wink:
Way to go on the push it points! I'm aiming to beat my score again this week; how about you? |

I wish I had your energy!
Last week was tough because my husband was out of the country, and I took my three boys to visit their great-grandmother for most of the week. We stayed in a hotel...the fitness room mocked me. No way to leave the boys and go use it! I did creatively get in my workouts...but obviously just the bare minimum. I plan to do much better this week. |

| This week I'm teaching music at VBS...so I'm dancing constantly (with maybe a minute break (not exaggerating) every 20 minutes from 9am to 12noon! So I'm defintiely counting that as a more than 90 minute cardio everytime...I'm sooo tired! |

What a way to hang in there under adverse circumstances MB. Everlore--you go girl! Make sure you get full credit for every bit of exercise!!
I think we may have lost larissahp. I "pm" ed her and haven't heard back. We all know the scores need to go up ASAP so it's a pretty good indication. That would mean we're down to 7. I'll ask A-Rod what to do since it's her challenge. |
