Dallas is off to LiveStrong - 90 miles here I come

Day 45.3: Denver Bumps Biceps to Thursday

No real explanation. Just life happening!

Dallas - ???

Glad to see Denver is back at it. My back is acting up a little bit. I'm hoping to get in to the Doc at the end of the week. Hopefully I'll be back at it next Monday.

Day 44.3: Denver Pushes Play (& Pounds Plyo!)

Yeah, I was pumped for this. Somehow the lingering cold effects aren't bothering me too much. I did have to push "Pause" as well as play a few times.

My heart rate is back up this week, not sure what the deal is there. I'll monitor it over the rest of this week and see if I can figure out why.

Keep Bringing It!

Day 43.3: Denver's Chest (Shoulders & Tricep) Challenge!

First of all there is a small glitch in my WorkoutSoft program. It keeps erasing my weight data for seveeal exercises (including Slo-Mo throw and the Tricep exercises I can never remember what I start at. Annoying, but in the grand scheme of things, not worth getting upset over.

I have been feeling lousy and have had no appetite. I made myself eat a Peanut Butter on Whole Wheat Sandwich and an hour later I got going. Started off feeling woozy, thinking it was going to be a rough one, but it actually made me feel much better. I got some good weights (some up to 30 pounds) and even though I didn't see across the board improvement (I had a rough ending to last week and the sickness is still weakening me) I did okay.

Day 42.3: Denver's Sunday Stretch

In preparation for kickstarting my unhealthy body, I am stretching before the Ranger game today.

Day 41.3: Denver Taking Weekend Off to Recover

I want to start the week off strong. But I'm worried as I still have this cold. Don't think it is the Swine Flu, but I'm pretty week.

Day 40.3: Denver's Sick. May workout tonight.

This thing is not going away and I'm not sure working out is helping me.

Day 39.3: Denver May or May Not Do Plyo...

Stay Tuned...

Dallas Checks back in

Well I still have not been 100% cleared to jump back in. I have hopped on my spin bike a few times. I'm in a hotel this week and just came up from the workout room. Their bike sucks.

Day 38.3: Denver Buys Tickets to the Gun Show!

Well, not really, but it was a great workout.

I love it when you struggle through one exercise the previous week and then you have no problem the next. It's the only way you can really see progress during the early parts of this stage (and the previous one). I feel good.

I'm not eating well and I'm blowing off Ab-Ripper. I was going to do it tonight, but I ate about two hours before working out and it wouldn't have been pretty if I had attempted it. It was hard enough doing lawnmowers (I felt the heartburn during that one).

Anyway, hopefully Dallas will be back soon.

Keep Bringing It!

Day 37.3: Denver's Pushes Plyo ToThursday

I know. Cold got the better of me. Won't happen again, at least until the next time!

Day 36.3: Denver Conquers Chest, Shoulders & Tris!

I love this phase.

The repetition gets to me on some of the workouts and I'm liking the linear path from start to finish that this exercise entails.

I somehow am missing some data from my last Monday workout, so I had to guess at some of the weights. This may be a result of me hurting myself last Monday, or the fact that Vista sucks and is slowly cannibalizing my data, piece by piece.

Overall it was a good day. Rangers beat the hated Devils and I get a good workout in when I thought I might skip. Discipline wins in both cases!

Day 35.3: Denver Takes Day Off

"and how is that different than Friday or Wednesday?"

This one is on the schedule, that's the difference!

Day 34.3: Kenpo Kicks Back...

...at my cold.

It was hard to keep my energy up, but I got it done. It was, as always, a fun, nonstop workout where you never really have a break. It was good for my cold, but I'm still not 100%.

Keep Bringing It!

Day 33.3: Involuntary Day Off

I planned on working out, but this cold is kicking my butt.

Day 32.3: Revenge of Denver's Biceps!

I did a late night session even though I'm battling a cold.

I do really enjoy this workout. I think it might be my favorite, because you really feel it afterwards. I also am able to do it relatively quickly by skipping ahead while the "kids" are still working out.

The Static Arm Curls killed me once again. I look ridiculous by the 7th rep on my left arm. Oh, well. I'm happy to be in this leg of the program.
