Confession time: I have been a very bad girl; Eating pretty darn near anything I want for the last 4 days. Did I enjoy the time off, yes, am I ready for things to get back to normal, yes! (Diet wise)
I did maintain my training schedule though, and am even a day ahead. My girls are keeping me RUNNING, busy, busy, busy. Between their schedules and mine our house is a crazy house, but thank you Jesus we have schedules and problems to solve and things to get into, because the alternative is unimaginable.
Oh, and I did the integrated conditioning workout again Saturday and was quite proud of myself and how I was able to get through it. (Meant to video it, but forget the Flip)
If your Tuesday has been as crazy as mine then I wish you a relaxing evening! Maybe I can get one tomorrow. :)
More later, I promise!

UGH!!!!!! I am having nothing but trouble posting comments. I love to comment on your posts, but the system is making me sign in my google account, then telling me my post is anonymous, then not even posting my comment. If anyone has any advise on this PLEASE pass it along.
Thanks!!
Thanks!!
Keeping touch
Hey guys, just want to check in. :) Things have been busy lately or rather more so than normal. My oldest daughter, Cierra, is out of school right now and finishing up Dixie softball and my youngest, Hannah, is still in school this week and busy as always. Hopefully next week we will all be on a better schedule.
My workouts are going well. I am keeping it the same, switching it up, adding here, taking away there, definitely keeping my body in a constant state of guess. Love it!!! I am still playing with the Workouts of the Week as posted on Muscleandfitnesshers.com, but my split is a bit different. Diet wise I changed it up again this week, still trying to find what works best for my body during this phase. For now I am doing 5 meals a day as follows:
Protein + carb
Protein + veggie
Protein + fat
Double protien
Protein
Still giving myself a cheat during the week and pretty much eating like I want on Saturday and Sunday. I am concerned with how my body is becoming less and less tolerant of carbs, so I am going to try this weekend to add in more of the healthy carbs. I had given some of them up a while back, so I think maybe by eating them in small amounts my body might "handle" them better. (My own reintroduce theory, not backed by science or any research, just a hunch on my part) All in all trying to prep for my mass building phase coming this August. Need to have more carbs for those heavy lift days. :0)
Also, my plan for Saturday morning is more of Ms. Emily Sterling's IC workout, so I hope to video the Plyo portion for you guys.
Have a great Hump day!

Video
I finally got the video of Saturday's workout posted. It only shows the 1st part of the workout, not the plyo part as the battery went out.

Integrated Conditioning
Hey guys, I recorded some of my workout this morning and I am trying desperately to get it on here somehow. Hopefully I will be able to share it.
I changed it up just a bit this morning. Normally Saturday mornings are PLYO days for me. I enjoy it alot! BUT today I decided to try Emily Sterling's Integrated Conditioning workout. It was great!
Here is how it went:
Walking lunges with BB (to warm up, I did about 65ish)
3 X through these:
BB squat press (15)
Single leg DL w/ bicep curl (10 each leg)
Curtsy lunge w/one arm shoulder press (20)
Deadrow (deadlift with bent over BB row) (15-20)
Med Ball push up & knee tuck (12)
Loved the exercises as they are not something I would normally do. So change up was nice. If I get the video loaded you will see I videoed my1st time through on these and because I am not used to the motion, I was quite clumsy. But by the 2nd set it was fun.
Then she adds a PLYO set. These were good and I tried to stick to her timing, but I will admit, it was tough and I may have rested a few more seconds than I was supposed to.
3 X though 30 seconds on with no rest till end then 15 sec rest before going again. I did reps instead of 30 sec on each exercise to make sure I got them in because it is too tough to watch my own time and workout.
Jump lunge (16)
skaters (20)
Bosu squats (15)
Resistance band around lower thigh side squats (14 each leg)
Box jumps (15)
Loved it again. I think next time I will really push not to take any breather between exercises. You will have to watch her video to get the explanation.
Follow up with 15 minutes on Stepmill and 15 minutes on elliptical.
Otherwise another great Saturday workout!!
