Ok, not die, but possible do some bodily harm to yourself. Like pass out from how freaking tough it is!
I was gonna do it, I swear to God I was going to, and then my eyes fell to an old school Firm DVD that I ain't done in forever and a lifetime. Low Impact Aerobics with Wayne Gretzky's wife, Janet. She used to be a gymnast, I think.
I hit the inclined treadmill for 20 minutes, then did the DVD. When it was time for the cardio sections, I substituted ass to grass squats, heavy deadlifts, heavy squats with upright rows, and dips with frontal sweeps.
524 calories burned. Lots of hard work & sweat.
Thanks for the kind words those of you who listened to Heather's interview/podcast with me on her site! I appreciate it.
I've been getting compliments on my arms lately. Especially when I posted that tank top pic. Lifting heavy will get you nice arms. Remember to strength train as early as you can in your weight loss. I was working with weights from Day 1. Light weights, of course, from 2 pounds and up.
I've never regretted that. I do have a teeny amount of bat wings/loose skin. I know, I know - you are always your own worst critic.
Anywho - do weights if you don't already!
Food prep then bed. Nite, ppl!
Can you prep my food too? I want to crawl in bed right about now.
ReplyDeleteI will take your advice and start strength training now. My arms are HUGE and will no doubt have a suitcase full of extra baggage so any work I can do to help minimize would be worth my time. I started the podcast so I could check out what your voice sounds like (it sounds cool btw). I will finish it later this afternoon when I can pay better attention. Great stuff so far.
