sickpump.

WELL this whole weekend was a bust (in supapump world) for several reasons.


1. Allergies have arrived = can't breath.

2. Parents came to visit = no workout.

3. Parents came to visit = no healthy food allowed.


To be fair, I did have grilled chicken and veggies one night. However, there were some cookies, chips, maybe even a cupcake added to that.


Now that #2 + #3 are over, let's get back to where we were:



So good!



Breakfast of supapumpers.


Like I was saying...tonight is legs and hopefully I can get myself to the gym -- with tissues and benadryl in hand I WILL get some squats in.

Happy Friday and HOORAY Saturday rest day!

I almost turned up the resistance on the elliptical next to me. Girlfriend it is June, you can NOT be working at a level one this late in the game!

In case you were wondering.... EATS:

Breakfast
Whole wheat toast
PB
Banana
Honey

Snack
Almonds

Lunch
Turkey sandwich

Snack/dinner

Note, I could eat that breakfast combo for the rest of my life. Seriously nothing more satisfying and just delicious!

I guess...........I'll post.............something...........

STILL SORE. Unbelievable. Last night I made my way to the gym...sat in the sauna for a few and stretched it out really well. I did manage to squeeze in an upper body workout EVEN THOUGH I was the only girl surround by 5 guys in my usual workout area. Yes, these 10lb dumbbells really are that heavy. LEAVE ME ALONE! Lol.

· Bench press, 12-15 reps, 3 sets (10 or 12 lb dumbbells) On ball.
· Lateral pull downs (machine), 12-15 reps, 3 sets
· Bicep curls, 12-15 reps, 3 sets (10 or 12 lb dumbbells)
· Behind the head triceps, 12-15 reps, 3 sets (One 15 lb dumbbell)
· Dumbbell raises front/side, 12-15 reps each, 3 sets (5 or 8 lb dumbbells)



Sleeping in icyhot didn't do the trick either. Sigh.

Forcing a leg workout tonight? We'll see.

holy squats and lunges.

Yesterday marked the official "6 weeks to go"! And I think I did anything and everything to avoid going to the gym. Its too hot to workout!! Even inside!

But I still went. Hate leg days.

squats - 12-15 reps, 3 sets (15 lbs dumbbells)
lunges - 12-15 reps, 3 sets (15 lbs dumbbells) Skipped the weight on this one.
calf raises - 25 reps, 3 sets (15 lbs dumbbells)

I had to cut my workout short because I'm a weakling and was already at jello stage. So embarrassing trying to walk down stairs after this workout.

Finished up with P90x ab ripper! (Kind of missed Tony)

Almost forgot eats!!

Breakfast
English muffin
Egg White
Cheese
Coffee

Lunch
Whole wheat tortilla
Turkey
Cheese
Tomato

Dinner
Chicken
Broccoli
Cucumber/tomato salad

supaOUCH.

Yea, not only is supaPUMP back--- but so is the soreness that comes from not working out in weeks and weeks. After my first workout I was literally unable to walk for 4 days! Leg soreness is probably the worst. I felt immobile lol. And a trail of Icy/Hot followed me.

Was back at the gym yesterday!! Below is my workout (taken from Eddie/Steph):

· Bench press, 12-15 reps, 3 sets (10 or 12 lb dumbbells)
· Lateral pull downs (machine), 12-15 reps, 3 sets
· Bicep curls, 12-15 reps, 3 sets (10 or 12 lb dumbbells)
· Behind the head triceps, 12-15 reps, 3 sets (One 15 lb dumbbell)
· Shoulder Press (machine), 12-15 reps, 3 sets
· Dumbbell raises front/side, 12-15 reps each, 3 sets (5 or 8 lb dumbbells)
· 30 minutes cardio on elliptical

I went full force on the elliptical and probably scared the girl next to me......who.......was on the phone the entire time. Really.

And I couldn't find the stupid lateral pull down machine so ended up doing triceps twice with a different pull down machine thing instead :)

And thennn I went in the sauna. For approximately 7 minutes.

supaPUMP is back ya'll!!!!

That's right. I've packed. I've unpacked. And packed on the non-muscle stuff.

That actually sounds gross.

But what I'm saying is......supaPUMP IS BACK after moving states and countless furniture rearrangements! And just in time for summery beachy vacations--- maybeeeee a little late but let's continue.

P90x was a great workout! However, my new home does not lend itself to living room workouts so I have joined a gym and taken on a new program! supaPUMP will now be a fitness diary of my new 6 week supa-crunch-time workout and diet plan.

I got this workout from http://www.womenshealthmag.com/ and plan to modify/switch it up as needed. In short, its a total body workout 3x a week with cardio mixed in on days off. If I'm feeling supa strong I can add cardio to any strength day. Six days a week for six weeks is the gameplan.

Diet is the usual protein with every meal, snacks inbetween every meal, and protein shake post workout. Supplements will also be thrown into the routine.

So there you have it, the new six week challenge. Ready, set............. Grocery store.
