Whew. Whatta week. I began rehearsals this week for a new show, which has added a nice layer of crazy to my life. It makes the work to gym to rehearsal commute a little hectic, but I refuse to give up!
So, here are this weeks stats.

Tuesday- nothin’
Wednesday-one hour strength, 45 minutes on the elliptical on random and cross train, ten minutes stretching
Thursday-nothin’
Friday-One hour strength, 45 minutes on the elliptical on random and cross train, ten minutes stretching
Saturday-nothin’
Starting weight-144.5
Current weight-145.5 (boo)
I bumped up most of my weights, which is awesome. I have inherently sucky quads, so that is my frustration. I’ve had at least two doctors confused over my oddly weak quads, and not sure what to tell me to do about it. I work them as much as possible, with a lot of grumbling and groaning on my part. I bumped them up five pounds on the machine, and thought my legs were literally on fire by the end of the first set. Everything I do that works them is a struggle to get through…so anyone bothering to read this who might have some advice, I will gladly take it. Everything else is shaping up nicely. I am actually for the first time I can remember, getting definition in my calves. My arms are slowly shaping up…I just wish my triceps would shape up faster! My butt is a little perkier…and my favorite part, I have a lovely two pack, and can see two more forming below. I just need to be patient, I know. I am trying to focus on the good things, and remind myself that I am making progress, so I can keep going.
I mostly can’t wait for the weather to turn around so I can walk/run and rollerblade.
