    What did you guys do today?

    I just did 35 minutes on the elliptical machine followed by 10 minutes walking on the treadmill. Oh, and 50 fitness ball crunches. And stretching.

    Mine always changes b/c I have a trainer. I just do what he tells me. Im never bored though or really get used to a certain machine or weight. After these some 3 months Im much more stronger than Ive ever been in my life.
    It goes something like this:
    6-10 different arm exercises using free weights and machines Tuesdays. Lifting anywhere from 5-50lbs and doing 12-15 reps per exercise.
    ~~~

    Then 5-7 different leg exercises on Thursdays. Lifting/pressing anywhere from 45-200lbs (yes 200 wanted to make me cut off my legs those few times!!) then doing 15-50 reps per exercise.

    I really should do one more day to make my fat buring more effective. I do abs on my own and sometimes with him. But I do at least 300 crunches when I do them of different exercises. Now to keep helping myself eat better.

    Natural runner machine for 45 minutes.
    Rower for 10 minutes.
    Various upper body weights for half an hour.

    spinning? Yeah, it's great. You can change the resistance so it's as easy or hard as you want, but a good instructor will get your maximum effort out.

    Yes I do the Floor work out of the NYCB Work out. You do back sit-ups in it. That is why I love ballet. It works out every major muscle group.

    Well I was working out with a trainer 3 days a week and doing 45 minutes of cardio 4-5 days per week, but since he got all weird on me (don't bang your trainer ,BTW) I'm back to doing Firm videos and freeweights at home. I get better results too.

    today was just a standard cardio session - 20 mins on treadmill, 20 mins on crosstrainer, 20 mins on bike.

    i would've liked to take a class today or do some more cardio, but my trainer absolutely bruised me yesterday with a whole lot of leg weights and running outside in the sun.

    I usually swim for 30 minutes twice a week and do spinning once a week. Then I have Windsor Pilates and I do their advanced workout whenever I miss my other sessions. Of course, I'm not including the four shifts a week I work, so it is, of course, give or take.

    I eat one meal a day (the saltier and greasier, the better), sleep way too much, do thumb lifts on my remote and eat lots of brownies.
    I'm getting my Dial-A-Stripper service up and running again. If you are in NYC or NJ and are interested in private party dancing, email [email protected] with your SW handle, contact info, photo (if you have one) & best time to call and I'll get back to you asap.

    If you're having a party and need strippers, email me with the details and any questions you have. Thanks!

    will when i wasnt pregnant i would run about 1-2 miles a day,do about 500-1,000 crunches,literly! but i did differnt kinds so it was easier and less boring. then i would do about 50-100 pushups,100 lunges/squats,and spend about 20-30 minutes on the bowflex,it seems like alot but really it wasnt and it made me feel sooo good! i love it when you run and you get a high off of it like your floating instead of running. then i would stretch afterwords for abou 5-10 minutes and before i started. after i have the baby *hes due in about 2 weeks* im going to start that routine up again,but start off light,then go alittle heavier, till im back in shape.

    K, what is a backwards sit up??



    I wont go to the gym today, I have a nasty icky cold....no fun having arunny nose when you try to do eliptical machine...
    But normally, I do 30 mins on the elliptical, 10 on the treadmill. leg press, extensions and laying leg curls, 15 reps 3x. Then I don't know what the machine is called but when you hold yourself up with your arms and curl your legs up or kep them straight and raise them, I do 3 sets of 30 for those (trying to build strength, it's my weakest spot) then I do bicep curls and triceps, lat pull downs, etc...I just try to work my whole body and keep my heart rate up.
