Still kickin' ass

Man-o-man have I been working my ass off, literally. Well, the biggest changes I see are my pants are looser and I'm starting to see the lean muscle building in my biceps, triceps, and I can feel my abs! Under the chub is a good foundation!

Al kicked my ass on Tuesday! It's great. He promised me I'd sweat, and I sure the hell did. He's really got me focused on my abs (after stretching) along with cardio. Round 4 is Saturday.

My last training with Al was last Thursday. We figured out the circuit machines and he wrote down the seat position and weight for me. I start with 10 minute cardio warm-up (after stretching), work the circuit, then finish with 10 minutes of cardio. We previously figured out two "routines" for the treadmill. After 3-5 minute warm-up, pick up the pace to optimal heart rate (level 3.0 on speed and incline) for 22 minutes, then cool down. I usually get in 30-35 minutes total.

I have also gone to a stretching class 2x. I'm going again on Saturday. I really enjoy it. Next week, I'm hoping to try the dance/fitness class. Last Wednesday, they were busting a move to Thriller and I was sorry I hadn't gone that night. LOL
