August Challenge "Ladders"


I really like my legs in this picture, ah what high heels will do for a body.

For August I think my new challenge will be Ladders. This still incorporates push ups and a whole lot more.

10 Jacks
10 Walking push ups
10 Mountain climbers
10 Burpees (I will be adding a plyo jump)

repeat, taking away a number each set.

I took the SuperPump Max pink lemonade at 5.30pm it was very tasty but I only took 1/2 scoop. My workout was a half and half set.

I finished my first set at 6pm. Then my girlfriend came over to pick up her computer I had fixed for her, and that along with some girl talk took about 45 minutes. Then I did my second set finishing up at a little after 7pm.

I ate my salad right away, and a full bottle of water.


I had my Casein at 8pm and got ready to settle in for the night, showered and made my lunch then off to finish the book I am reading called Crazy Love.

Its a new month, and I am officially done with my push up challenge.

Modified
Single stabilized
Wall
Decline
TRX
Clap

I am not sure what the August challenge will be, I vote for Ladders.

Here are my workouts and meals from the weekend, note that I had cheesecake from Mc Carthers bakery that was so fabulous and 25% off so I decided to indulge. It was turtle, very d-lish.

Yoga classes went great at the Yoga To Go Studio, some of my supporters were there and I thanked them for coming out early to workout with me....looooove you! (cals burned = 530)

Actually the rest of the weekend was all about back to school shopping for my nephew, just clothes. I did get myself 2 new tee shirts for a total of $6 add that to my shoe spree = $36.

I also went to this "Family Thrift" center to look for some fitness stuff they sometimes get the strangest things there. BAM yes I found a double square step for plyo, with 2 heights!!!

All for $7.

= T. is very happy.

I managed to get some pictures over the weekend and will try to post them up tonight if things go as planned. I never got my video shot or the other one that keeps fighting me loaded. I have the Kodak Zi and for some reason my software for it does strange things when you save a movie and its very FRUSTRATING! I so wish I was more tech savy or enjoyed this kinda thing.

Again posting my meals and workouts the fast way.
