misteradam Posted February 5, 2012 Author Share Posted February 5, 2012 Tyvm Karen, I would like to continue this journal to keep myself on track. I have not jogged in the past few stays, keeping limber with stretching still and the 30lb dumbells still feel heavy haha. Feels good to be sore.

misteradam Posted February 9, 2012 Author Share Posted February 9, 2012 I am, but it's not emailing me thread updates for some reason. I made a little excel document to keep track of what I'm doing so I can observe improvement easier. First week of February I've been basically doing daily pushups,situps,squats and some dumbell exercises.. starting yesterday, though, I am keeping track with my cheat sheet. TUES FEB 7PLANK: front 1:20, right side 52 seconds, left side 58 secondsCRUNCHES: 60SITUPS: 20WEIGHTED SQUATS: 20 (30lbs of added iron)LEG LIFTS: 20PUSH UPS: 20 I wanted to do 3 sets of these, but ended up just doing 1.. it was 1am or so and I was tired haha. I also did some shoulder presses, curls, forearm warm-ups and butterflies. meal 1: a smoothie. Had all kinds of good stuff in it.meal 2: had a banana for a snack, then a big bowl of misc. veggies and ricemeal 3: made some mushroom potato soup, threw half an avacado in it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misteradam Posted February 14, 2012 Author Share Posted February 14, 2012 was very physically lazy today and yesterday, did morning pushups and stretching but otherwise no exercising really. I have noticed today that I fit back into pants that were getting tight around the waist from when I let go for a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misteradam Posted February 15, 2012 Author Share Posted February 15, 2012 Today was more active, did my forearms, shoulders, legs and core/abs. Not a heavy workout, just a few reps of 10 to 20. Enough to feel the burn. Still eating just plants and I feel pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misteradam Posted February 18, 2012 Author Share Posted February 18, 2012 squats, shoulders, arms, core! I didn't write down how many reps I did total, but I broke a sweat and felt the burn! Also upgrading to interchangeable dumbbells tommorrow, so I no longer have to grip two big metal ones in one hand haha. been eating a lot of avacado, kale, mushrooms, snacking on almonds. I'm addicted to making veggie nori rolls with cucumber, avacado and bell pepper. Haven't had any beans for a few days, might cook some black ones tommorrow maybe in a soup. Mornings I usually have a fruit and veggie smoothie, or a banana apple and almonds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misteradam Posted February 19, 2012 Author Share Posted February 19, 2012 Injured my foot a few days ago at Disneyland.. not sure what I did to injure it, but can't walk or stand very well for more than 5 minutes without some sharp pain, lol. I am angry at my foot today and tried to just pony up and proceed normally, but just made it worse Going to stick to upper body and stay off of it for a bit. On a lighter note, new weights are here! Got the bowflex dumbbels 552, so cool. I'm using 22.5lb - 30lb for now, reps of 8 to 12. for forearms I go with lighter 15lb ones and just rotate my wrists and forearms seated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mina Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Aww that's such great news! Sucks about the ankle, but I'm so jealous over the new weights lol =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misteradam Posted February 19, 2012 Author Share Posted February 19, 2012 its not my ankle, it's the top of my foot, but where the arch is.. so above the arch if that makes sense. curling my toes upward causes extreme pain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misteradam Posted February 20, 2012 Author Share Posted February 20, 2012 Did some curls today, shoulders, but staying off of my feet mostly. The left one swelled up and I can't walk very far lol. It's reallllyy annoying, but the nerve or tendon or whatever should heal up soon. Hopefully. Maybe. It better! time for situps crunches and leg lifts!
