gosh how horrible am i about getting time to post these workouts!

LOL well lets recap then

sun-although nothing in the morning i did swim early afternoon and did a workout in the evening. wii coach lower body for 15 min and upper body for 15. basic lower body stuff i just wanted to try it out nothing out of the ordinary with donkey kicks,squats, leg lifts blah blah. i added on cathe's 10 min stability ball core from the basic step/body fusion dvd. this is a great basic ab/back workout. crunches and back extensions using the ball and variations. nice quick workout.

yesterday i did 15 min of cardio with the wii coach and added on denise austin's mat work pilates segment 2 where this one combines yoga and pilates. not totally easy but great for a light day. in the afternoon i did 30 min on the treadmill mixed speeds and some core work(not ABS as the dummy at work wants to say CORE work as in strength and flexiblity) using the machines as well as a body bar and some floor work.

today i did a totally awesome kettlebell workout with iron core way!!!!! vol. 1 i watch the quick tutorial of the newer moves we would be doing then i hopped into the workout. its 3 "circuits" although she adds in different exercise in the middle towards the end. (mixing renegade lunges with two arm swings etc). i loved loved loved it. doing cleans her way was a little harder to grasp then amy bento's way but i really have to learn it to progress with newer moves. i didn't think at some points i would make it much i just added another 30 seconds onto rest.

this afternoon i did about a one hour walk with my therapist then went to the gym. since i was pretty warm i added a body bar for a few arm movments then hit the machines. i did pull ups and chin ups(10,5 respectivley), chest press,incline press, preacher curls, lat raise, back rows, shoulder press, tricep pressdowns with the rope, and inner/outer thighs using both the ab/aductor machines and the hip joint machine. i also worked some hip flexors and hams on the multi hip machine. i didn't over do the leg work since i did kbells and walking but i wanted to hit certain muscles. i also did some light weight work with 12lb seated on the ball and 2 sets of 10 pushups. one set on the floor one set on the ball.

think i will just do yoga and wii coach tomorrow and take a break LOL.
