gymmie Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 (edited) OK, this started off as the Spring Challenge Journal, but I kinda fell off the wagon on that. So instead of starting over, I'm just going to continue on here. I still have the same goals as below, with the weight and inches a bit modified. I'm aiming for 30 pounds by the end of the year and then I'll evaluate from there ! I don't really have a number for the inches, but the more the better Borrowed this format from Bunnylalu! Fitness goals: Gymmie aka Sandie – Dallas, TX Vegan since Jul 2006Age: 37 (well I'm 36 but will be 37 in a couple of weeks so we'll just round up!)Goals: *Lose 60 pounds*Lose 50 inches*Obtain visible muscle*Break men's necks as they do a double take--not due to how large I am but how HAWT I am!Maintain workout program for 6 months (January – July) = *3 days per week strength training (a combo of Tae Bo strength workouts and Jari Love)*5-7 days per week = cardio (mostly Tae Bo/Turbo Jam)*Contioning 1-2 times a week *Additional abs at least 1x week*Work up to 100 push ups*Continue to drink 128 ounces minimum of water every day...ESPECIALLY WeekendsCurrent weight: 243.8Desired weight: 183 (for contest..actual goal weight lower) ETA--I forgot 2 things...items in blue added Edited September 15, 2007 by gymmie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We tried out Tae Bo a while back, but never really got into it. Looks like a great workout though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gymmie Posted January 8, 2007 Author Share Posted January 8, 2007 Had a pretty good week last week! Only took one unscheduled rest day...so only got 2 days of strength in, but it's better than nothing! This week I have: Sunday--RestMonday--S<uesday--AL11/GB AbsWednesday--S<hursday--New AL1/GB AbsFriday--S&LSaturday--Billy's January Challenge And like last week, I'll probably and an additional 30 minutes or so of cardio on strength days.

gymmie Posted January 8, 2007 Author Share Posted January 8, 2007 Thanks ! You can do it! Pounds are nice but the inches rock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gymmie Posted January 22, 2007 Author Share Posted January 22, 2007 Goodness! I haven't updated in a while! Scale wise I haven't lost much, but inch wise it seems I've done well! I don't measure again until the 28th, but the jeans I wear on Fridays feel looser each and every week! I did a size check on some other jeans, I have one pair that I can pretty much wear, but the pooch needs some work! But it does seem to be smaller so maybe it won't be too bad now! But in any case a long shirt can hide that! I was sick most of last week so I didn't get a lot of my workout in but at least I didn't gain either! This week I have: Sunday--RestMonday--Slim and Lean/fluidityTuesday--Billy's Favorite MovesWednesday--Slim & Lean/FluidityThursday--Cardio Circuit 2Friday--Slim and Lean/FluiditySaturday--Open I'm going to most likely do more cardio and abs, but not sure which ones yet.

gymmie Posted September 15, 2007 Author Share Posted September 15, 2007 I'm currently in the middle of a 7 week rotation using Tae Bo and Jari Love videos. Once I'm done with that and have done my recovery week, I'm going to do a 5 week Squeeze rotation. Then another recovery week and then a 4 week SWAT rotation followed by another recovery week to finish out the year. I'm planning on taking pictures at the end of each rotation that will serve as before/after for each segment. These were taken a few weeks ago... http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y210/gymmie/September%20Progress/S5000243.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y210/gymmie/September%20Progress/S5000244.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y210/gymmie/September%20Progress/S5000240.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gymmie Posted September 16, 2007 Author Share Posted September 16, 2007 Hmmmmmmm...the scale said I gained, but my BF shows it's lower, so not sure what's up there. But we'll see. I won't change the ticker since I used last weeks numbers vs. the beginning numbers and it puts me back where I started a few weeks ago. I decided to change up my rotation a bit. I decided to make my current one 6 weeks instead and then do my SWAT one first and then Squeeze. This week I have: Sunday--RestMonday--CardioTuesday--Slim and LeanWednesday--CardioThursday--Slim and LeanFriday--CardioSaturday--Slim and Lean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
