♥ SMART Quest ♥ Sat. Sept. 3, 2011

WARM UP: 8:35 am
Push Ups x 12
Squats x 20
Spiderman Climbs x 20 total
Jumping Jacks x 30
Performed 2 rounds of this circuit
Today I am doing a series of 6 Tabata Intervals based on Scott Colby's Ageless Abs 2 Program! I am still adding extra time to the intervals and I continue to try and do more advanced moves. Instead of doing 20 seconds on - 10 seconds rest, I am doing 30 seconds on 10 seconds rest.


6 Tabata Intervals
These are timed Intervals: Set your Gymboss Timer to 2 intervals of 30 seconds & 10 seconds and 8 rounds. Each round is 5:20 minutes/seconds.

Bowling Lunges  - 30 seconds on, 10 seconds rest x 8 rounds - 72, 71, 71, 70, 70, 70, 70, 70 reps per round! What was I thinkijng, these also really burn out the quads, inner thighs, glutes, etc.

♥ SMART Quest ♥ Tues. April 5, 2011

Week 4, Day 2
My SMART Quest for today is:  Remain positive, see the bigger picture!  The results are slower, but what I am doing for my body, my life is so good!
Sleep:   5 1/2 hours - Went to bed about 11:30 pm  - I know I should have gone to sleep earlier, I had such a busy day yesterday, but I stayed up.  I am sleepy today and have another busy day ahead of me.
Awoke:  5:00 am
Warm Up: 5:25 am 
8 push ups
12 squats
10 spiderman climbs
20 jumping jacks
Completed 2 rounds!

Workout:  5:30 am

Today I am doing a series of  5 Tabata Intervals based on Scott Colby's Ageless Abs 2 Program!  I am still adding extra time to the intervals and I continue to try and do more advanced moves.    Instead of doing 20 seconds on - 10 seconds rest, I am doing 30 seconds on 10 seconds rest.


Metabolic Ignition Phase - Weeks 3 and 4

5 Tabata Intervals
These are timed Intervals:  Set your Gymboss Timer to 2 intervals of 30 seconds & 10 seconds and 8 rounds.  Each round is 5:20 minutes/seconds. 


Get Ups with Tuck Jumps - 30 seconds on, 10 seconds rest x 8 rounds - 5.5, 5.5, 5.5, 5.5, 5.5, 5, 5, 5 reps per round.  These are so tough to do.  I don't enjoy them, lol.
Suicide Drills - 30 seconds on, 10 seconds rest x 8 rounds - 24, 23, 23, 24, 23, 23, 22, 23  reps per round! .
Overhead One Legged Step ups with Squat Thrust Push Ups (from Zuzana's Bodyrock.tv See photo below) - 30 seconds on, 10 seconds rest x 8 rounds - 4 round per leg - Left leg - 4.5, 4, 3.5, 3.5, Right leg - 3.5, 3.5, 3.5, 3 reps per round!  These are sort of a crazy move.  Do the 1 legged overhead step up and then jump down into a squat thrust with a push up and then jump back up, repeat.  UGH!

Burpee Step Up aka Overhead One Legged Step Ups with Squat Thrust Push Ups

straight over my head as I stepped up


Finish with a squat thrust with a push up
also know as a "Burpee"

MINDSET: I have felt fairly good today.  I have been keeping myself really busy so I won't think about food or want to eat bad things.  I find that if I don't get started on the bad stuff I am okay, but once it crosses my lips, I am doomed, lol.
