The Countdown BEGINS!

Ok..I think I stress too much about what I SHOULD be doing instead of what I AM doing. So, I decided to go with the DB/KB Fusion Workout from Turbulence Training and it looks like this:

*1 Leg Squat

*DB Incline Press

*1 Leg RDL

*Block Push up

*Chest Press

*1 Leg Deadlift

This is tough workout and a lot of exercises I haven’t done in some time..so it will be fun. I am going to stay away from HIIT for couple weeks and instead do BW circuits.

For meals, I’m just going to eat clean. I don’t need the stress of tracking calories right now. If in a couple weeks I don’t see any changes, then I will start tracking for a while and add some HIIT.

I have to get some new pix, my legs are looking awesome! Now if I could just tone that ass more! In time…patience, right?

Ok..so Im back!

I am so ready to get back into my routine! I was on vacation for 10 days and worked out about 4 of them, but did light workouts. I felt I needed some time off from the workouts and think it was a good thing. I think maybe I was over training or burnt out, because in the week I took off, my body fat stayed the same and I didn’t exactly eat all that well.

So, I’m still trying to decide what to do for workouts. I am a member of turbulence training and have been looking through his workouts to see what he has. I did the KB-DB BW Fusion workout this morning. Was pretty good workout. Not sure if I want to focus more on losing fat or building muscle. I do know I don’t want to build much more muscle in my lower body, just lose the fat. I would like to build my upper a tad bit to proportion my body out some more. I am going to have someone at the gym take my BF here soon, so I can get a better idea of where I really am. Right now the Omron says 18.6%. I guess I might just take this week to figure out what my goals are now..but while still working out. If anyone has any ideas..please feel free to throw them my way!

Ok..so here’s my frustration now..I am losing in my waist and thighs, but my a$$ is getting bigger! OK- NOT WHAT I WANT! I need to lose my ass! LOL. I know there is this stubborn layer of fat on my ass and upper thighs that I have been trying to get rid of and it seems that it is getting less and less. Maybe the muscle I am building is whats making my butt bigger.

So, here’s what I been doing:

2 days of intense lower body, 1 day of intense upper body, and one day of split. NO cardio on lower body days, but otherwise cardio every other) day (so 5 days). I have been eating at about 1500 cals, but getting hungry, so think I will raise them to 1600 and Im going to try 3 days low carb (10C/30P/60F) and one high carb day (60C/30P/10F).

Ok..so this week’s workouts:

Monday: AM- Intervals on treadmill for 20 min  PM- Total body workout @ home- low intense

Tuesday: AM - Lower body workout at gym - AWESOME!! Love not being able to walk out of the gym! LOL

Wednesday: AM- Upper body workout at home and abs - Intervals on elliptical for 15 min.

So my abs are still sore from last Wednesdays workout..had hard time doing pull ups..didn’t realize I used my abs so much doing them! Did deadlifts yesterday and my back is okay today..so thats good thing. I have planned my meals all this week, and kept them around 1400-1500 cals per day. Low carbs and keeping carbs in early part of day. Its still this darn energy I am struggling with! Just one day I would like to NOT BE TIRED! I ordered some Jet Fuel and see if that will help. Someone suggested it and says it works awesome..so lets keep our fingers crossed!

I took some pix of my legs this morning with my new phone, but realized I can’t upload them yet, cuz I need a USB cord. So when I get that, will get them on here. They are looking better…and even the "dreaded cellulite dimples" are looking less and less! Yipee! I just have to keep at it and I KNOW I will see the results I want!
