Yoga

So, although it isn't CF compatable according to most people, I have been going to Bikram Yoga a couple times a week as it is the only thing that seems to keep my IT band feeling alright. It is certainly one of the most intense things I have ever done and feel pretty good about it. Just throwing that out there.

The class is 1.5 hrs long and is in a very hot, sweaty room. Lovely. It works!

Update: Last time I went I pulled my quad and have been struggling ever since. No more. Too stretchy. Oh well...

Swimming!

Ken and I went "backpacking" with some friends for the weekend; mostly we just swam in a perfectly warm lake and in two seperate swimming holes with clear, cool water and some waterfalls in the sun. Out attempt at excercise was thwarted, but we sure did enjoy relaxing...

Tabatas=fun

I hate jump ropes. Especially the new, thin, fast ones that punish you with a whipping whenever you mess up. Grrrr....one more thing to learn to do!

Tabata:
Jump Rope (K=14, R=35)
Air Squat (K=18, R=20)
Push Ups (K=7, R=5)
Sit Ups (K=12, R=18)
Total(K=51, R=78)

Squat and Press

Ken and I got back to it and are going to try and do it every Monday.

BS: 5x3, 135 lbs
Press-R: 75 lbs
Push Press-Ken: 65 lbs

Swimming!

It was 105 F Tuesday...too hot to be outside, so to the pool!

warm up 300 yrds
10 x 50 yrds @ :55; drill odds, sprint evens
4 x 100 yrds @ 1:30; sprint
cool down 150 yrds

Since this was my first workout after the cleanse and all I had eaten that day was fruit, this was all I could handle. I was actually naseous at the end of this.

Cleanse...

Ken and I started the "master cleanse" the day after FGB and went on essentially a lemon juice, water, syrup, and cayenne drink concotion only for three days. Two days to wean ourselves off of it and then onto a month of attempting a paleo-zone diet.

As recipes and ideas come up (aka ways to handle eating massive amounts of veggies) we will post them here.
