Ok, so after an intense workout at the gym with my workout / spotter buddy today (my usual Friday habit), I came home and decided to analyze my form for pushups again (on camera), since seeing how bad it was last time I demo’d it for you guys…am I getting better? Check it out!

personally I think could stand to flatten out at my hips just a bit more, but I’m getting there… only 4500 reps more to go til I’m perfect, right? LOL!

and yes, I need some practice framing my videos when I demo!! Sorry for cutting off my head there a few times!! LOL

Hi everyone. I just finished my home weights workout for the day and my place looks like a bomb hit it!! LOL!! It gets a bit messy while I’m in the throes of my weight-lifting routines, so I thought I’d show you!!

Also, I talk a little bit about my past programs, my current program, and the program I just wrote for myself that is due to start mid-June. Check it out!

Hey everyone!! How’s your week going? Mine is fan-freaking-tastic (except for the weather, that is!)… I decided to get a little creative today and we’re FINALLY going to answer one of my loyal viewer’s requests to talk a little bit about Plyometrics (Hi Jarret!). I do a (half-assed) demo of some plyometric moves you can do around your home …

So, as you can see by my demos, Plyometrics are mostly bodyweight-oriented exercises. And you guys know what that means!! I’m going to tell you that if you are interested in this kind of stuff, you REALLY should check out Craig Ballantyne’s programs. He really IS the King of the Bodyweight exercise, and that includes Plyometrics. He has tons of these kinds of moves in his book. Please do yourself a huge favour and get his book if you want more tips and ideas about Plyometrics.




Craig Ballantyne’s Book “Turbulence Training” can be had by clicking HERE!

Today is a lifting day. I still have DOMS in some areas. How weird.

Anyway, I did Day 3 of my latest program today, which is FullBody Compound Moves in a SuperCircuit done, as usual, at home. mm mm!! Delicious!

I also talk about one of my favourite moves and where I got this particular move from!! Plus, I repeat for anyone who’s missed it, what my favourite post-workout meal is!

So, check out the link in the sidebar for Mike Geary’s book. Really, it rocks. I wouldn’t lie to ya! :-)

Have a great day and see ya soon!

Okay, today more than ever I am very aware of what effect taking time off, even just a certain activity, can cause. I haven’t done my 5 minute PowerSquat Blast or stairwells in a very long time (I explain) and hooo boy… well, just watch.

then, I hit the stairwell as planned… here’s where my head landed after I finished…(or did I finish?)

like I said “Deconditioning: I hate it”

hey kids!! SORRY I’ve been gone sooooo long… work and life and restless behaviour are to blame (not an excuse mind you, just “to blame”) and I’m gonna pay a price for it while trying to get back where I was before it all. hmphf.

So, I worked out (bet you couldn’t have guessed that, huh? LOL)

…. and I worked out again (big shocker, huh? Penance, this girl is all about penance!)

Missed ya, glad to be back! See ya again soon!

There! Finally, all illness has left me. Blech, I’m paying for it tho. I hate the detraining effect. I feel week and unconditioned. Rats!! However, I have now stocked up the fridge with maybe my weight in fresh fruit and veggies, and am back at it hard.

A workout … of sorts… http://www.girlwithnoname.com/2009/02/finally-a-workout-of-sorts/ http://www.girlwithnoname.com/2009/02/finally-a-workout-of-sorts/#comments Tue, 24 Feb 2009 05:58:44 +0000 Girlwithnoname http://www.girlwithnoname.com/?p=543


Oops. Maybe my brain still hasn’t recovered from the trip and being sick… either that or I’m super distracted by the project I’m working on, because this post should have come before the previous post. Anyway, I finally get a workout (of sorts) in. Phew! I was climbing some walls being indoors all the time.
