Nitric Oxide??

I have been using the superpump 250 powder, but i was wondering about pill form of the NO.  Does anybody use the pill form or know which is better to take (pill or powder form)?  I need a boost in energy when i workout considering i work midnights and will need to workout after my shift is over.  Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated!!

Okay for three days now I have been working on my eating, and it is going pretty good.  I am finding it hard to get 5-6 meals in a day but I am working on it, and the new challenge will be working it into my midnight work schedule (which starts next week), but I will do it!! I also went to the 24 hour fitness gym today, and had my BF%, measurements and weight done….UGH…wow i have a lot of work ahead of me, but again I will get it done!! I think i finally have my mind in the right place, and although it has taken me awhile to get there, I know this time it will happen!! Now I just need to find the right workout to get my HR up and stabilize my core.  I need a full blown kick my in the A** workout.  If anybody has any input I would love to hear it!! Hope everyone has a wonderful 4th of July!!

Think?!  Well i am supposed to head to Texas on the 2oth of June for a travel nurse assignment for 13 weeks, and I was pretty excited until a nurse i was to share an apartment with bailed on me leaving me with the total bill for the apartment…ugh!! So now  i am trying to figure out what to do about that.  My goal was to go there and get myself refocused and start really working out and eating right.  The apartment complex has a fitness center and a pool so i figured no excuses and then there is a gym down the road that has spinning classes for me to take part in…..so what to do what to do????  I appreciate everyones advice on eating clean and healthy that is where i struggle the most…eating!! especially since i will be working midnights…but  i am looking forward to fun in the sun!! WOOHOO!!

Okay I have decided that i need to move where there is some sun and fun all year round.  I am so sick of the snow and cold here in michigan, I swear it never ends…lol!!  I think if i lived someplace warmer all year round i would stick to my workouts better.  I love to be out in the sun, and here in michigan u tend to hibernate for 5 months and yes it gets depressing.  I live in such a small town and there is no real motivation here, hell u cant even get a personal trainer at the gym…ugh..i wish i had a trainer to help keep me focused until i got myself going.  That is usually all it takes…but gosh do i need to head west!! Cali here i come…lol!!

Okay its a new year…and its time to get this body moving!! I have put myself in a challenge with a few other friends on here in the hopes that it will give the motivation to make the changes i need to make.  The first is eating clean…I struggle with that the most…working midnights makes it a little difficult at times..but i am going to pack healthy snacks from now on, and hit the gym after work before i lay down and sleep for the day.  This is my year to shine!!

Wishing everyone and their families a blessed New Year!! Heres to 2008….May we all reach our goals!! Be safe!!

I havent posted in awhile, been kinda busy lately.  Right now I am fighting off a cold, but working 5 midnights this week is taking its toll on me….53 hours in 5 days….ugh!! So needless to say i am way behind on my workouts and have been eating badly…So here i am starting over again…..but i guess i have to start somewhere….I have 6 days off next week, so hopefully i can get into the swing of things.  I am going to try to go to the gym after work and see how that goes, sometimes its hard to find the energy after working a 12 hour midnight shift….but that is what i am going to have to do in order to get my workouts in.  Any suggestions to get this body moving would be appreciated!!  All of you on here really do give me inspiration and motivation, now i just need to give it to myself.  Have a great holiday everyone, and good luck with all your goals!!

Yesterday was legs/shoulders/abs and cardio…it was a pretty good workout, but let me tell you I am feeling it in the legs today!! Its all good…..what it does tell me is that because i had been slacking for a few weeks that pay backs are hell…lol!! Still not at it full blast, but I will get there.  I dont want to kill myself this first week back at full training….The other day when i did back and biceps my forearms hurt for a few days, and the cardio, well lets just say i have to recondition myself for that again!! You know when u dont work out for a few weeks you can tell trust me…especially if you are still out of shape like me! I will get there though…it might be a little rough working through the winter blahs…but i most definetly will get there!! No more slacking for me!! I still need to work on the eating part, its getting better but still needs some work!  All in all I am in an awesome mood and loving life!! Hope everyone is having a great day!! Muah

I need to find some energy from somewhere.  I am now working midnights, which i dont mind but when I get up at 1 or 2p I find it hard to find the energy to get to the gym.  When it comes to supplements I have a high tolererance, so what might make some jittery doesnt really do a whole lot to me.  any suggestions to give a little more pep?  Also for some reason over the last few weeks my calves always ache, and if i keep my toes bent a little to much the start to go numb….(yes i am a nurse) but i have no clue why they are both doing that….doesnt make sense!! HELP ME PLEASE…LOL!!
