“Not many people understand what a pump is. It must be experienced to be understood. It is the greatest feeling that I get. I search for this pump because it means that that my muscles will grow when I get it. I get a pump when the blood is running into my muscles. They become really tight with blood. Like the skin is going to explode any minute. It’s like someone putting air in my muscles. It blows up. It feels fantastic."
Arnold Schwarzenegger

Just completed my "Burn it off"30 and wheewww! The best way to describe this class is that it was much like football practice meets HIIT class.. My suspicions were right when near the end of class Chalene credits her hubby who is a football coach for some of the exercises.. Well it is time to prep for my double now that I am pumped for the day Have a wonderful day everyone

Hey girls! I just completed a Turbo Jam Fat blaster30 and Core20...I am just hoping that my evening cardio won't keep me amped all evening..I am doing a new class in the morning Burn it off, it combines cardio and weights so this should be a good one
Well I almost had the day off..It was a pretty nice soaking this morning so when I called to see what gives with work, my GM told me to take the day off but stay close to the phone..Less than an hour later, he calls me in..I figured as much so I was already mentally prepared for his shennanagins.. LOL It's all good, though, I have to get my winter stash at a cushy level..
I arrived home with 2 nice surprises in the mail, 1 was a thank you card from Nicky and I have to say for someone who just turned 4 his signature was pretty good, backwards h and all(Nicholas is his full name)..LOL Also waiting for me was my "Train Like a Freak" tees, I purchased 2 of them as well as some stickers they added in there..I am def putting them up somewhere in "Hell's Gym"(my lab)..

Good Morning I stayed up far too late yelling at my TV like an insaniac (the Bears lost) Needless to say I slept in and now it is time to get my workouts in and get the laundry done..Back at ya later! Have a good day
Back!! Well I completed my Ab Burner10 class and OH Boy!! This is going to be just the push I needed for getting the abs more defined!! I cant' wait to try the Extreme Ab and I've got Abs classes Okay so the Recharge20 class was a yoga class.. Well it took about 5 minutes to figure this out and I shut it off to wait til this evening.. I was craving some cardio so this evening I tried out the Fat blaster30 and it was sort of like a HIIT class but less intense..I did work up a nice respectable sweat so all was well.. I attempted the Recharge 20 again and to my surprise I actually liked it alot more than the stretch40 because it was not as intense a pace as the speed yoga...LOL I find it very confusing when Chalene is yelling push yourself and relax at the same time, almost like saying "crush it" and then saying "never mind take it easy"..LOL
Anyhoo I think I am going to like the program and as expected, i will be adding classes on the days that I feel like I can go harder, I can do more...

Not much on the agenda today other than prepping food for the week and the usual GTL, I have to get the laundry done today, not sure if I am going out somewhere to watch the Bears play the Lions tonight

Hey girlies!! back! I crushed out a HIIT25 in the morning and I completed the Stretch 40 class this evening..I tried not to listen to some of my amp inducing music and I really did try to relax and I am feeling bendy an a little less hyped up so I am making progress( I think) LOL..
Tomorrow are 2 new classes(Ab Burner and Recharge) and I can't wait to try them out
Laundry was a big super fail today but it gave me a reason not to go out to watch the game tonight and rage out.. Dinner has been prepped, bagged and tagged so now it is time to get some fuel, read diaries and get ready for game time!! Go Bears!!

"If one dream has died, dream another dream" Joel Osteen
Good Morning That was quite some storm last night/this morning and there is more to come.. Alot of areas had some major damage(winds here were45mph) and many are without power so I am thankful that we dodged the bullet in my neighborhood..
So I tuned in to Joel Osteen this morning and today was all about shaking off disappointments when life doesn't go the way we think it should...I really liked his analogy about getting into your car and looking through the big windshield to see what's ahead, and the tiny rearview to see what is behind..His thoughts were that what is behind you is not nearly as important as what is in store ahead... I just thought "well put"
Okay on that note, I gotta get going before another round of rains rolls through, the sky is looking pretty ominous...I will catch up with you all upon my return
Sorry Moogy, Thinkpositive, Kat and the other ladies that want to learn about football...

Back later
She's back!! And Legcramps you were so right, I couldn't resist Upper20 and AB10..There is no taming this girl.. I am also seeing a HIIT class in the very near future, what can I say I am a maniac..LOL Oh and also it is official, I am a Turbo Fire Graduate, and now I am going for my Masters!!! WOOOHOOT!!
Oh so I purchased my ticket home to Chicago for Christmas I am sure I don't have to tell you how stoked I am to spend time with my friends and family (especially my Nana I miss her so much) Man they tax the tickets like crazy.. They were a reasonable price for that time of year and i only went over my budget by 17 dollars and I am certain the prices are going to be all jacked up from here(especially after October)
Although I have the money to purchase my gloves, I decided to wait to have a comfortable enough cushion in the "rainy day/ winter fund" Last year in Dec- end of Jan, work was non existent due to cold and or rainy weather so although I will def have my gloves but I have to be finacially sound...
Well with another great day down in the books, it is time to fuel up and read some diaries and more FOOTBALL!
Brunch- 4 egg white omelete with ff cheddar, roma tomato, red peppers, red onions, 2 tsp turkey taco meat. 4 slices extra lean turkey bacon, 1 slice Ezekiel 4-9 with ICBINB spray,
S- Raw Pistachio, Almonds, cashews, no oil added
D- Turkey taco mix with wild brown rice, romaine, cucumbers, red peppers, red onions, sunflower kernels, ff feta, red wine vin, lemon wedge 2 glasses of Cabernet Sauv
1 gallon water, 1 scoop Jacked3d(pre workout) 1 scoop Casein(pre bedtime)

Images of the ex-Governator exploding.....just kidding ;) Enjoy your classes - I'm hoping to get one of the new ab ones in later!
hollybelle on 10/18/2011:
I told Rachel I was so JEALOUS that SHE got to talk to YOU. Seriously she said you all had a good chat. I am proud of her! She is very sincere in all she does. She cannot be fake in her words or deeds. Not too many of them around like her! She has great experience with people and business. Especially for a person her age. Thanks for letting me brag on my daughter a minute!

lol, I had so many different things pop into my head when I started reading this. Once I got to the word "muscles", I realized that this was a health related quote. ;-) Anyway, I totally love the feeling of getting pumped up!! If there's one thing I could buy myself, it would be 3x/week sessions with my trainer. He makes me do things I didnt think I could possibly do. Not only can I feel myself getting stronger, I can see it! My muscles are blowing up and I love it!
glycrina on 10/18/2011:
I like the P90X program but I would not call myself a follower as I have only once made it through an entire video. My husband however is Tony Horton's biggest fan ever. I have the Slim in Six Series which is more my speed but still a great workout. I am pre-ordering the new P90X for my hubs in December. I may try it with him at that point because my ability and stamina is getting so much better with every workout. I would like to try the HIIT stuff eventually too but I have an old knee injury so I have to watch the high impact stuff.
glycrina on 10/18/2011:
I already pre-ordered the DVDs -- they should be in by Christmas.
thinkpositive on 10/19/2011:
Glad you are pumped!! Don't think that will ever apply to me. I'm more of a exercise for fun, sweat a little yes but having a burn, probably not. So exercise with some gentle toning- I think that kind of sums up my idea of exercise. There's room for many types of people , right?
Supercheese on 10/19/2011:
I think I'm just gonna put all of my "healthy food" for him with added layers of cheese for now until he gets that "ahhhh healthy food is good!!"
