I am starting work again…another set of 4 nights. holidays are over…my painting is done and have only the trim to put up. It looks very nice….My kids are enjoying there own room to hangout in and mom gets peace and quiet upstairs when she starts school again in september. My workouts this week were done alone. No personal trainer this week. I still do my one hour of cardio. Managed to get a good run in and 2 spinn classes in this week. As well my usual stepper and dont use the eliptical much. I suppose i enjoy sweating…why i dont know…….My routine is working good and i am enjoying the program . Well my kids are off now on summer vacation….that is nice as it makes the usual  routine a little bit less hectic. have a good week all and happy.. keep on keeping on.

Hope its hot out your way. the sun is warm today. Just got off the water paddling for an hour. My new hobby. Get a two in one deal enjoy the water, sunshine and work on my shoulders at the same time. Well its been a good week at the gym. My personal trainer set up a 5 day program for me and i am gung hoe to follow it. she just has me so pumped with building up my arm muscles  that i cant wait for results. Will post them one day soon. I am busy renovating two rooms. One is done and one will be done on wed when the flooring goes in. My kids new play area. I am not working till next sat so i have all week to enjoy myself. So here gym here i come….My running is going alright.

Well here it is saturday again. Worked last night. Two more nights than i  have 2 weeks off. Got my workout routines, all 5 of them so i can work on them now. I hope to see some improvements on my next 2 weeks with the diet and the excercise. Going to try hard anyways. Last night was last day from bootcamp and ran the same trail i ran that is 3.2 km one way with hills. Hard to run when you only get 5 hours sleep. Was still great mind you. Hitting the gym every day this week with cardio every day. No weights yesterday hopefully will sleep well and make it into today to start on my own program without PT. Good night talk to you guys next week. Happy fathers day to all the DADS.

Well here it is sat…how time flys…. Last sunday i had an awesome day off…Been working a whole wack of nightshifts…So that makes me tired alone…trying to get some workouts in there…Had 4 days off…

Sunday was hot hot hot…managed to take the whole day off and spend most of it outside. Decided try out hawaiian outrigger canoing paddling on the lake here. It was an hour of paddling. It was a lot of fun. Will try it again..Lots of upper arm strength needed to change every  14 strokes.

After this i decided to visit a man i date, off and on and we went for a hike to a waterfall close by. It is a 3.5km hike one way. Through trees and a path. I wanted to find this place as later on in the evening i was to meet some of the bootcamp girls and run this path. It was very muggy and that was a cooler place to hang out. Well i did find the place again in the evening and we ran most of it with the girls. I slept good that night…

Monday i took the day off, had to mop up water in my basement from leaving the sprinkler on to close to the house..not sure where the water came from…Took the day off.

Tuesday..i finally met with the personal trainer..was suppose to meet her yesterday. Im glad i got her. I have been going to these group power classes for a few years and have only been warming up my muscles im sure.. because my goodness she put me through the test.

She says im strong and upped my weights so much in the past 3 days…I didnt even know i could lift that heavy..now for all you gym goers that do free weights its probably nothing to you …but for me it was a shock almost. I did shoulders, lats, and chest the first day.

second day i did legs…omg…Than of course no suzy cant get enough and has to do a one hour class doing a floorworkout and some freeweights and lots of legs in that as well…So it is called batt class…Goes through all the parts in a floor routine..Excellent class i have been doing it for a few years…For us girls we call it Big ass torture treatment..but it is called BAtt for butts, abs, tri and toning. Than i did some cardio as well..Have to do at least 25 min on the stepper and 30 on the spinn bike.

Than on thurseday i did a class caught at least 40 min of a spinn class and did 25 min on the stepper and than met the trainer to do some more work on biceps and lats and some lower abdomen. Well i tell yah my arms where killing me by the time i left. I have never been more challenged than the way the personal trainer has set up my routine. I am hoping to keep at it and will finally i am sure build some muscle on my body… and hopefully shed my little fat suit.

Well to note i was so tired yesterday  and sore i had to take the day off….Today it is back at with a run hopefully 10ks and i will be happy….

Yes i am back at work and working nights again this week so i am meeting with the trainer again on tues wed and thurseday..to go over the workouts again. I dont venture to much into the weight area so i am very happy overall with this weeks progress. Trying to eat clean as well.. Will work on it a bit better this week……sorry for the blog delay….have a nice day…..
