Jen's 2008 Off-Season Log

jenscats5 · 02-15-2008, 06:26 PM

Hey all! Simply creating the log for now....haven't been to the gym since last Monday (Back/Shoulders) as I've been sick with a stomach virus.....

Don't think it'd be a good idea to try squats, y'know? LOL

I'm hoping to get back to the gym next week....I'm getting tired of the 5am routine tho, so I'm thinking of switching to PM gym time maybe....not sure if I want to deal with the crowds tho....maybe I'll try it for a week & see....

I haven't been feeling "right" for a while now - so I'm thinking I'm not getting enough sleep + work has been hectic. January into Feb. is our busy time due to year-end close out & getting budgets done & the audit, etc, which is why I'm thinking of trying afternoon workouts again....

Glad you're back in here

I'm "IN"

Glad to see you back Jen

changing time of workout could be worth a try..sometimes your body just needs 1. a change and 2. the extra sleep in

WonderWoman · 02-16-2008, 02:21 AM

can't wait to keep an eye on this one. Change is good and will kickstart your body. Get plenty of rest too..

Wohooo 10 pounds!

Don't ask me why that makes me excited

I guess it is all the work you are doing to make it happen is just out and out motivating!

Get-R-Done Jens!

I know fat very well my dear! I did not reduce BF much last summer so I have gone 2 years since really seeing ME.

There are pics here to prove that I am still fat. So having been more or less bulking for 2 years I am in full commisseration with not liking the fat feeling

takniteasy · 02-16-2008, 06:44 PM

Hey Jens! I'm in too!

T-Cake · 02-17-2008, 07:19 AM

You get to add 10 lbs?! I'm jealous!!! I know that bloaty feeling, though... ugh, that would suck. No one likes to feel rotund (even when they are farrrrrrrr from it, goofy girl).

I LOVE your avi!

Where did you find it?!

And hooray for new gloves and a belt! You be stylin' now!
