Well, a few days ago I hurt the inside of my thigh doing leg presses. I guess I should have laid off for a couple of weeks, but I didn't. So now, it's hurting when I sit.

If you call walking 2-4 miles everyday working out then yes.

I did! Well, not today, but yesterday and Monday, and will go back tomorrow. 12 miles on the bike in 35 minutes and a bunch of upper body stuff on the weight machines. I don't do heavy lifting, as I'm more interested in toning than bulking up, but I do try to notch up the tension. I try to do at least 3 sets of 15 on each machine.

You sure you dont have an inflamed hemorrhoid? LOL

No, the pain is more like sciatica.

Walked 4 miles yesterday. Already lost 4 pounds. Didn't walk today due to a freakin migraine.

No bikes available at the gym, so I had to go on the treadmill. I hate the treadmill.

10 down 42 to go.

Cardio is great for you if endurance and just all around feeling better is your goals, and losing weight of course for most people. Great back workout yesterday, going to hit legs today might even do a quad/hamstring split this week. Meaning today I'd focus primarily on my quadriceps and another day this week focus on my hamstrings.

today all presses/squats will be done with a closer stance than on normal leg days to hit the quads little better.

Front Squats/5 sets/8-12
Leg Press/4 sets/8-15
Barbell Lunge/3 sets/10
Hack Squats/4 sets/10-12
Quad Ext/3 sets/failure

"You wanna be big lift big weights, if you want to be small then lift small weights"

If you do leg extensions to failure (or at all) after 16 sets of leg work, you are taking quite a chance with your knees. Extensions are bad enough under any circumstances let alone as the last movement of a leg workout.

Well, I either do the bike or, as a last resort, the treadmill for half an hour. Additionally, I work the upper body with weight machines. I do fly/delt, rowing, chest press, overhead press and a couple more. My goal is to tone and tighten as I lose. At my age, losing weight can leave you a bit "saggy", so I figure the cardio will work the legs, and the machines will do the other half!

No knee problems here knock on wood.

Monday chest day:

Incline Barbell Press/4 sets/8-10
Flat Dumbell Press/4 sets/8-12
Hammer Press/3 sets/8-10
Incline Dumbell Flye/3 sets/6-10*

*Flyes done using heavier than usual weight with slow,concentrated negatives and contractions held for a two second squeeze.

Took the weekend off, back to the gym today. I've added that horrible ab machine. I do four sets of 15. I was pretty sore the next day, but the second one was easier.

SB, I'm impressed! Are you inspired by a certain person we know?

In my quest to lose 20 lbs and improve my overall cardio, I jogged 2.5 miles on the Ventnor, NJ boardwalk. An absolute gorgeous day.

BTW, I bought a new bicycle seat called "EasySeat II". It does not have a "nose". That's the part that stick out and causes all sorts of male discomfort. My boys were having a bad time with the older seat, but that's too personal to relate. The EasySeat has been a bit of a trial getting used to. You don't realize how much the nose holds you up. Without it, the boys are riding free and easy, but your weight is pitched forward and the wrists take up the strain. I've ridden four times with the new seat. The last time I went 7+ miles. Some wrist stress. I've had to raise the handlebars, lower the seat and change the angle, but overall, it is be a big improvement in comfort.

Yes, MC, she's a bit of a nag on that front. Actually, my motivation is the oldest one in the book. I've been invited to a wedding and I'm going to see people I haven't in several years. I put some serious poundage on when I quit smoking five years ago, and I want to lose it before the wedding.

I went to the gym again this afternoon. I did 11 miles on the recumbent bike, plus the weight machines. I'm up to 100 reps (6 sets of 15) on that horrible ab machine. When did my shape change from hourglass to cube??

Legs yesterday:
Hack Squat/4 sets/10-15
Stifflegged Deadlift/4 sets/10-12
Front Squats/4 sets/10-12
Barbell Lunge/3 sets/10
Seated Hamstring Curl/4 sets/12
Vertical Press/4 sets/10-12

Shoulders this afternoon…

I didn't yet today, but I went to the gym Tuesday and then did my bike at home yesterday. It's my husband's birthday, so our normal gym night is canceled, but I'll do my bike today and maybe run into the gym on my way home from work tomorrow to do the weights.

Yes as always!
