I haven't tried l-glutamine yet, only creatine. I need to look into that, thanks!!!!!!

I didn't get around to working out last night. I left the house at 5:30am and didn't get home until 9pm. I was too tired to do anything!!!!!

Today's workout:
Lower body lifting (I changed it from UBWO from yesterday because I was feeling that my butt was starting to sag again.

Melissa

Another new pic! Everytime I check in, you've got a new one!! Definitely check out the Exercise Forum, I think there's info on l-glut in there. It works wonders on my sore muscles!!

Linda

Yes, the pic has changed again!!!!! I think I'm finally happy with it (It took me 1 1/2 hours to modify, so I'd better like it!!!!) I just couldn't find a pic of him that was just right.

UBWO

I've decided to lower the hand weights I've been using. I'm seeming to get less bulk and more tone and definition this way. Hope it keeps up!!!!!
I still haven't found my tape measure. I need to find it or get a new one........

Melissa

1 hour kenpo

20 minutes full body bike

Ok, I fell off the workout wagon again for 3 days. With all the stress and horrible things at work I was just exhausted when I got home. Planning on at least getting 4 days of working out in this week!!!!!



Melissa

1/2 hour yoga

I went back through my journal and decided to try something a little different.

Melissa

1 hour high intensity kenpo.

I've just started taking Xenadrine to increase my energy. It's been the main reason that I haven't been working out a lot. I'm alway so exhausted, even after getting up. For the past couple of days I've been falling asleep as soon as I sit down on the bed (Without even being able to get changed into my night clothes.) The Xenadrine really helped me today. I was able to not have problems focusing on things or thinking. So far so good!!!!



Melissa

Good workout day!!!!

10 minutes 35-39 mph on the bike (Using the arms too the whole time. WOO HOO!!!!)
Upper body lifting
Ab work
Light stretching

It all took about 40 - 45 minutes I didn't officially time it. (I don't like to wait a long time between sets. It just doesn't work for me.) I don't feel like I'm dying. A little tired, but I did a lot.

I'm not sure how long I'm suppose to wait after taking the Xenadrine before working out, but I only waited about 10-15 minutes. It was nice that it wasn't a major drain or excess effort to work out today!!!



Melissa

Got up at 4:15 am to do my 1/2 hour yoga. I figured that it's stress relieving for work and if I did it in the morning I wouldn't have to worry about not wanting to do it when I got off work. (And I thought that it was going to be an incredibly stressful day and it wasn't, just the opposite: I got a promotion and a raise!!!! WOO HOO!!!! Not bad for only being there 3 months!! )



Melissa

WOO HOO!!!! I did it!!!! I did my goal of 4 days of working out this week!!! I'm planning on continuing working out tomorrow also. I think these pills are helping!!!!!

Day of rest, unless lugging 50 lb boxes at work counts for anything. Can't wait until I start my new job!! No more of that!!!

Well, I tried to do CKD for a week. It didn't go too well. When I was eating my Friday evening and saturday meals I felt like crap, bloated horribly, and had no energy what so ever. So I'm bad to Atkins (Or at least my version of Atkins. :-D) Maybe at another time I'll try it again, but with my anniversary coming up in 2 weeks, I need to get the water weight and bloat off that I gained from this. I honestly don't think that it had anything to do with CKD itself, I think I'm just REALLY allergic to certain fruits and grains (ie: anything pasta or bread that's not rye and 99% of all fruits. )
