Today was my birthday…and I had an awesome day!!! I got to spend the whole day with my best friend!! Went to the gym first, where of course he kicked my butt! Then had lunch at a place I have always wanted to try…needless to say what I had to eat did not agree with me! So that place is off my list!! Then we just hung out….GREAT DAY!!! Not sure what is on the list for tonight, but I don’t really care, because it can’t beat the day that I had!! Hope everyone has a great friday night!!

Today i got to train with my trainer again!! Was a killer workout! He has a new circuit routine and let me jus say YOWSERS!!! Gonna feel that tomorrow! He hurt his back, but is better now and can go back to the gym. I’m glad, was no fun working out without him! Looking forward to our routine tomorrow!!! Hope everyone has a great Friday night!!

Well…since my trainer hurt his back, he wanted me to keep going to the gym.  It is no fun to workout by myself! I know when he is there i lift more and feel more motivated! Today i did go to the gym and i did my shoulder routine and cardio.  The gym was so packed, i should know better than to go close to 5 p.m.! I got in, did my workout and left.  I sure hope he gets better soon….cuz i miss him being there to PUSH me!!!

Well…my trainer hurt his back so I have to go to the gym alone for a few days : (  I know i will do fine, but I will miss his motivational push! He pushes me harder than anyone, knows what i am capable of even when I am in doubt! Today is leg day…I know our routine, but will truly miss him there!! Get better fast my friend!!!! Happy workouts!! -cat

I was lucky enough to go to the Ironman show with my friends yesterday!! We went to the expo and it was fun! It was neat to be around people that had similar interests as me! It’s the best to see people that are fit and take bodybuilding seriously!! I enjoyed the different vendors and some of the samples were the best, some…well i had to throw a few away, BLECH!! I got to see one of my idols at the competiton, Cory Everson….i was mesmorized at seeing her in person!! I even got to take a picture with Greg Plitt from the bravo show Workout.  AND….got to see Kim Lyons, from Biggest Loser, that was cool!! I even ran into someone i met on this site, it was fun to see her at the event. The actual Ironman show was THE BEST!!! I couldn’t take my eyes off the contestants!!! I am amazed at what the human body can do with hard work, determination, dedication and DIET DIET DIET!! Today at the gym i kicked a** because i felt so motivated from yesterday.

Today was a GREAT day…just wanted to write it down and save it to remember always!! Shoulder workout was perfect, i lifted more than usual, very proud of myself!! After the gym….was even better!!!! Hope everyone has a great night!!! -cat

Ahh trainers…truly a love, hate relationship!!!  I am lucky, my trainer is my best friend!!  He pushes me to my ultimate potential!! If it wasn’t for him, well lets just say i would be doing a "julie" workout-LOL!!!! Anyway, i have come a long way and i owe alot of my accomplishments to him!! Of course, i do the lifting….but he supports, guides and motivates me like no other!!!! So, this is a thank you to my trainer and very best friend!!! See ya tomorrow for another grueling yet perfect workout!!! -cat ; )

Today was so much fun! I got to have lunch and go shopping with one of my very best friends! He is a good person and always gives me good advice! Sometimes he can be a tad harsh, but I know he means well.  Did some serious damage shopping, but oh well…you only live once! Tonight going to do chest and cardio at the gym.  Chest is fast becoming one of my fav body parts to train.  I am looking forward to hitting it hard tonight! Hope everyone had a great day!! -cat

Have you ever been in the zone while working out and then you see someone that totally throws off your training? I was working out this morning, and I look over and I see someone that I haven’t seen in a year.  Our last encounter was very unpleasant and when I saw her everything that she said to me came flooding back! I tried to be the bigger person, last year, and make amends but she is such a hateful and shallow person all she could do was attack me with vicious words! I will never forget that day! Funny, we were friends and then a stupid misunderstanding ruined everything.  Guess she was not a true friend.  I am trying to move past it, but what worries me the most is that she will be at the gym training when I am.  I am going to have to have major tunnel vision to stay focused on my workout.  I know it will pass in a few days, just is really bugging me now! Had to vent, feel better!! So, here is to "happy workouts" from this day forward

Ahhh leg day, truly is a love/hate relationship.  I can’t wait to do legs and then halfway through my routine, feels like i am going to throw up-UGH!!! After today’s workout, I can tell I am going to be feeling it tomorrow, the next day, and so on!! These high reps are going to be the death of me.  Everyday is only one body part, with high reps-not an easy task! Time to drag myself downstairs for a protein shake - stairs….not a good thing after a leg day -cat
