Wednesdays are long days.
With two full days of heavy workouts under my belt, Wednesdays seem to creep by....my body is tired and my mind is, well, a little on edge. The day felt rushed from one thing to the next, that when I finally had a chance to sit down at 2:30 I could have fallen asleep. This is part of my problem...I go and go and go until I can't move or think, and as a result am ready to rip someone's head off. Which might be ok if I didn't deal with people all day...so usually after 3pm someone's life is in danger. Lord knows if I didn't have my second round of coffee at that point my mug-shot would be on the news.
Only cardio today...40 minutes walking. It actually flew by because I was in this weird trance or something. I just kept moving. Legs were numb from yesterday, but whatever...typical hump day. Tomorrow is back-day baby! The tank is ready to pull some weight.
Not much to talk about tonight...although I am very curious as to who comes up with the fortunes in fortune cookies. I sort of want that job for a day. If you ever open one that says "Go run until you bleed", you'll know its from me. My theory is that its a drunk factory worker who finds joy in screwing with peoples' minds with a small piece of paper inside a cookie that isn't technically a cookie at all. Hollow cracker....its a hollow cracker. It almost feels like a rip-off...
Anyways, that's it for now peeps...niiiight
From my blog to the latest nutrition information, this is my life as a trainer...walk with me and enjoy the sweat, laughs, and struggles along the way.

Lactate overload
What a day.
I started the day with an amazing cup of coffee and that pretty much rocked my world from the start. I was extremely sore this morning, and my right arm went numb while putting on mascara at 4:45. Its probably just my body's way of rebelling against getting up so early. On the road by 5:15, and jamming out to Kesha like I'm at a concert. I love driving...in my own little world, music blasting, and feeling free to fist-pump if necessary (always necessary).
I thought I was ready for leg day...I was sadly mistaken. I felt nauseous almost the entire time and vurped a couple times during hamstring curls. A little graphic, but I swear that machine is straight from Hell itself. I felt well-rested, and yet everything felt extremely heavy and difficult. Some days are like that though, and I think since I dropped my carbs and increased my cardio, my body (especially legs) is just a little more tired. But I was truly at a point in my workout when I thought I might cry...well, first vomit, then cry....then get Morven to punch me for crying. Viscous cycle. And ending my workout with walking lunges was ridiculous. The last 5 yards felt like 30 and my rearend was screaming like a small child in Chuck-e-Cheese. Great birth control...I should go there more often...
Workout:
Squats 5 x 10-12
Leg press 4 x 10
Hamstring curls on machine 4 x 12
Leg extension 3 x 12
Hamstring curls/glute raise on slideboard 3 x 12/10
Walking lunges 3 x 25 yards
Tomorrow is just cardio. My body could actually use the rest from weights. I should be getting in my fabric swatches any day now for my suit. I'll receive 10 pieces of fabric and then choose from those. They are all blue/purple, but I am still leaning towards blue. I honestly can't wait to get back on that stage. There is such a rush for me, and I miss it....5 years?!! I'm ready.
A friend just notified me that they came out with Reece's cup minis. Sex in a wrapper. Life is not fair right now....I just ate cottage cheese...which is NOT sex in anything. Eh...
Night folks! Hump day coming....
