Going Back To Blogger…lol

Well I am going to go back to my Blogger blog. It just has too many features I like, plus I like changing my colors and stuff around as you know lol, and I can’t get very creative with WordPress. LOL so you can now find me at Blogger!

WordPress….<.<

Gah! WordPress is pissing me off lol. I can’t post a pic in the sidebar unless I upload it to photobucket, so then if anyone clicks on it they can view my entire photobucket album :S Why does it have to be so frickin hard? SERIOUSLY thinking about going back to blogger and later just making a website, since the tabs are really what I like anyway.

So Today…

I ran out of coffee last night, and tried to get to the store before they closed but sadly, I did not make it. So I was a zombie at work. My body does know know HOW to work without caffeine. lol

Today I bought this months issue of Oxygen magazine because Fern is in it!!! Lindy Olsen is on the cover. Now I stopped buying Oxygen magazine because I wasn’t all that thrilled with it, but this new issue in which Lindy is now the New Editor is great! I really like this issue. Check it out!

This next weekend we have been told is going to full on and were going to be boxing! So I went to get some carb powder and bought these:

They only had black or pink so of course I had to get pink I also bought a pair of hand wraps.
Last night I practiced box jumps and I actually did it. It was a fear thing , fear of oh… smashing out my front teeth, or taking my legs out at the shins haha. The next time I go back to that gym I want to be able to do it. I am the only girl in the class, and I hate them having to modify things for me lol.

So anywho I have a chest workout waiting for me, so I need to eat and take some Superpump. I bought Dan a Max’s protein cookie to bribe him to workout with me OMG have you tasted these? I am not allowed to eat them lol. Try a Titan bar if you can, (if your not prepping for a comp) they are HEAVEN and only 7g. of sugar compared to Maxs 23g. :S

I am still up in the air a little between WordPress and Blogger. I really like the follow feature on Blogger, and the way you can put pic, vids or anything on the sidebar anyway you like, I also miss how the most recently updated blogs are at the top. So I go to my Blogger blog to read all your blogs lol.

This is just awesome Turn It UP!

Love This…

Get It Done

Don’t waste your effort worrying about what you have not done. Spend your time working on what you now can do.

It’s amazing how much you can accomplish when your heart is in it. Drop the doubts, self-criticisms, and anxieties, and positively put your heart into what you’re doing.

Enjoy the delicious feeling of making real progress based on your own focused efforts. Have fun watching yourself accomplish as you complete each task.

Taking effective, meaningful action will put you in a positive frame of mind. And that will open the door to many great new possibilities.

Go beyond wondering about it, or thinking it through, or planning for it. Just go ahead and get it done.

Choose your destiny and delight in the fulfilling effort that makes it happen. You can do it, and now is when. — Ralph Marston

Pics, Pumps and Protein Powder Disasters

I had a good workout today, did shoulders with Dan and then I wanted him to try this protein powder-oat concoction we had in class last weekend. The thing is we used a different brand in class so i mixed it all up with Dymatize, which is what I have and OMG. It was soo feral!

We both took a bite and looked at eachother like WTF?! He didn’t finish his. I told him to stop being a girl lol. I ate it, I ain’t wasting my glutamine dammit! He put honey in his, still didn’t like it, so he added milk, still didn’t like it, finally he dumped sugar in LOL, still didn’t like it, he was gagging and turning colors trying to get it down haha. Pshh what a baby

Anyway I got an awesome pump in my arms , here is a pic, its a little washed out but you can still see

The pump! lol

I also found this pic of my son when he was in the military, its one of my favorites.:) Since I have lost all this weight we discovered we have the same jaw lol, I thought he got it from his dad… who knew?

Aaron

For Sundie!!

Umm lol …enjoy! LMAO

It would not let me embed the original:P

How Cool Is This!?

I had a great day. The more I learn in this course the more I realize Tony is spot on. I learned more about nutrient timing, not just the what to do but the why, now I see why Tony has me do the things he does and the importance of it.

They also took us to a fight gym! The video I posted below, thats the type of training they do there! We walk in and there are not weights and machines everywhere, although they did have a squat rack and a bench, but instead there were huge tires, and boxes of varying heights, kettlebells, medicine balls, rings, bars to swing from, matts against the wall and huge thick ones on the floor. We did a bunch of plyometric stuff and let me tell you …LOL… this shit isn’t easy!

I discovered I am terrified of jumping up onto a low platform! WTF? Now I am determined to be able to do this. So for now, he had me jumping over tires, laying on our backs and throwing medicine balls up fast as we can to our partner who is standing over us who then drops it and we have to catch and throw it up again fast, I missed once lol and got the wind knocked out of me.

We did push-ups were you clap between each one, hit tires with sledgehammers did get ups with medicine balls, and ladder work. It was awesome and man what a great way to kill yourself workout LOL.

I plan to do some of this each week on my own. My view of fitness is expanding, its not just about lifting weights, and strength, but speed, agility, coordination, and rythym. My goal isn’t just to look fit, but to actually be fit enough to do this stuff.

Plus this is great stuff to do at home and still get a great workout in, thats why my home workouts have been kicking ass so much more then my regular gym workouts, Tony has added a bunch of plyometric stuff and I am not used to it! My chest strength has improved , I can now do 12 proper push-ups, lol not a lot, but for those of you who have been reading a while, you may remember The Push-Up Challenge I did, and I never really got any better. I could do like 3 then. and they weren’t very good. The bodybuilders Tony has me do like 3 sets of 20, so yeah ab strength and chest strength have improved.

More and more I am wanting to start gathering stuff for home so I can have a kick ass workouts at home, or go to the gym, I still love the gym of course but its great to have different options. Training should never be boring! I can’t wait for tomorrow!

Saturday Update

I am liking WordPress~! Boy did this week go fast or what? I feel like I have been lost in a timewarp or something.
I am doing my workouts at home for the time being and they have been kicking my ass! Lots of plyometric stuff, running the trails, some bodyweight stuff and weights. I have been eating a lot more too, stuff that Tony added in. What a difference it makes!

Remember too how I said I was taking the magnesium hoping that would make a difference? BIG difference!

Its like, this is Tea on magnesium and B vitamins:
* la la la lala, I’m so happy! Dan I love you!*

Tea not on magnesium and B vitamins:
* waaaaaa! f%^$#$#$$$! Dan your an ass! I can’t believe F%$#$%$!!!!!*

ahem.

So…. yeah!

Oh and 2 new problems, I am breaking out with big ZITS on my NECK?! and forehead! Two places I NEVER break out! WTF?
The oter thing is I wake up every morning with damp clothes from sweating.
Now I was talking to Shariffe (spell?) the guy from the Biggest Loser and he said that they would sweat like that at night, because their metabolism was so ramped up, so either my metabolism is operating at peak efficiency or I am going through menopause I’ll pretend for now its because I am a fat burning furnace.

Dan wants to build me a squat cage and a plate tree with some extra steel he got from a job, that would be great!

One day I want to have a gym like this someday, just look at all the stuff he has in the background and look at the stuff he does!

I have class today and tomorrow which I am excited about. I will report more on that tonight. I really hate this cold ay. Its like you don’t even want to take your clothes off to shower, add to that no heater, although we saw a little space heater we are going to go get.
anyway I have to get ready and get out of here!

Excellent Post

I just HAD to re-post this. This is by Dov Baron.

Inner Winning

Winning is an Inner game… for two.

I know how you feel, I’ve been there…I know you have your reasons to say ‘no’ to yourself, reasons to say ‘no’ to your dreams.

Maybe you’ve been knocked down too many times, and you just don’t know if you can get up again. But, know this: As you stand here on the edge between where you were and where you want to be, life will throw you curve balls, life throws curve balls at us all.

Life may seem cruel and hard and what you need to know is, if you believe that then life will knock you down and it will keep you down, if you don’t find the courage to stand up.

Those around you may tell you that you are not good enough, and they may say it so often that you may even begin to believe it. If that happens, you will find yourself looking for someone or something to blame and every time you do, you are telling yourself that you don’t have what it takes to get up.

That’s a lie!
Life will knock you down, but that doesn’t matter anywhere as much as how hard you can get knocked down without giving up on yourself and on your dreams. I know you’ve been hurt, I know you’ve been disappointed…now what?

Many get hit and they never get up, others go to a certain point and they stop. Let me ask you what would happen if you got up again?

What would happen if you held a greater vision of what you were capable of, and you held this vision despite everything they told you?
Don’t get me wrong, it might not be easy but, let me share with you what more than twenty-five years of research has shown: What is likely to happen firstly is there will be resistance; it could be resistance from your own ego-mind doing its best to keep you safe in the same old, (often miserable) comfort zone. Sometimes, the resistance is external, those who love you, telling you to be careful, “you don’t want to make a fool of yourself” or some other equally rational answer.

Seriously, stop for a moment and let me ask you this:

When you get to your deathbed…
do you think you’ll regret the times you looked foolish pursuing your dreams in order to live the life you came here to live, or do you think you would experience much more regret at not looking foolish and never reaching what you deeply now know you are capable of?

Listen carefully, your ego-mind is like a ruthless crooked lawyer building a case using whatever it can while calling its lies “logical reasons”. What you have to do is employ the fierce power that is the fire in your heart that cries out for you to live your dreams.

I get it! You’ve been knocked down and it hurts, the question is, will you get up?

And what will get you up?

What is it that will have you spring to your feet like Rocky and say,

“Is that the best you’ve got!?”
Decide you can, decide you can’t, either way you’re right.

Winning is an inner game and so is losing!
It’s a game played by two: Your authentic self, that gently whispers for the expression of your dreams and your ego-mind that wants to keep you ’safe’ screaming at you to stay safe by repressing those dreams.

I sign off each of these writings with the statement: ‘live with courage’ because…

courage is not the absence of fear, courage is when you are terrified and you get up and do it anyway!

Until next time, “LIVE WITH COURAGE’’,
