Hey I was eating that

So this weekend marks the one year anniversary of my trip to the ER.  Everyone thought I was having a heart attack but instead just a reaction from the hernia I didn’t know I had. 
The effect of this trip snow-balled into me finally getting a real doctor and a colonoscopy along with the hernia operation.  I pretty much lost some of the momentum towards the goal I’d set the year before.

By the end of the year I had gotten on track.  At least to the point that I felt confident to pick up the kettlebell classes twice a week and add in another class (Pure Fitness) in between.  So I'm sweating three days in a row and coming back each week.  Granted we're only three weeks into the new year but it feels right.

Here's something to think about for the coming Super Bowl weekend.  We just finished off a two month run of eating everything in sight at the end of 2014.  Now a month later here we are getting ready to do it again for one day.  Probably not the best idea but after this we can really buckle down and hit our goal.  And that goal is to eat better and work out like we mean it.

The Sat weigh in was 243.  So a frowny face.

Here's what we did last Sat at the gym:
It was Back & Biceps with hamstrings. 

Standing (hinge at the waist) Rows and then Hammer curls (palms facing each other) I used 20lb dumbbells
Set of 12 each (row 12 and then hammer 12.  Repeat for three sets total

In between we did standing Hamstring curls.  Standing lift your heel like you are kicking your butt.  Only go to 90 degrees  Set of 12 each leg 

Reverse Fly & Reverse curls (palms facing away from your body) 10lb dumbbells
Three sets of 12 each.

Again standing Hamstring curls.  Set of 12 each leg.

Finish off with Ab work.  Hamstring curls on the exercise ball.  Laying on your back and planting your heels on the exercise ball and raise your body off the floor (making your shoulders the supporting point not your neck) curl the ball into your butt.  We did three sets of 12.

So there we go a workout with Lorinda.  For the Super Bowl weekend I will definitely have to workout with her to help the game day bloat.
