Chest Reduction

Made it to 14 minutes today....and to top it off I made it through the first 12 consecutively! Instead of bringing it up to 16 tomorrow, I think I'm going to keep it at 14 until I can do the whole thing consecutively without any debilitating crampage setting in. Then I'll raise it by a minute each day following the same logic. Ultimately I think the goal will be 30 consecutive minutes of pant-free, cramp-free, and ideally sweat-free running! That's really all I'd need to be able to do to take my pup for a run around the Back Cove :)

Just a quickie post today as nothing overly exciting happened in the gym and its Tuesday, Biggest Loser night! Today's weight workout was back & chest. I started with free weight chest presses on a bench (3 sets of 12), then did one arm bentover rows (3 sets of 8 each arm) and lastly, standing barbell rows (3 sets of 12). Typically I like to do at least 2 exercises for each muscle group but the girls have been performing a disappearing act as of late so I try to ease up on the chest moves haha

For abs I did standing weighted side crunches (3 sets of 8 each side) and then moved downstairs where I did 3 sets of 8 tee pees on the stablity ball, balancing on my knees between each set.  I attempted to try to stand on the ball (something I've never been able to do) but I can't quite figure out how to get my feet up. I'm making it my next goal to be able to stand on it but I think I'll practice at World's where you can find a secluded corner and not have everyone watching as you fail haha
