Lyzabeth, its such an accomplishment just to come back to competing again. Its also very inspiring watching you train! The intensity of your training blows my mind, especially the DCC stuff. Flipping that tire= Insane! You're a master at jumping rope and plyometrics, and you make me want to kick the intensity up these days. Thanks for all that, and good luck to you.

Lyzabeth, one quick question. What is the name of the song you have playing in your Au Natural blog #5 at around 3:30 in, that goes on til the end of the vid? I'm obsessed with it and is a great sound to train to! If you have a min, let me know, thanks!

I got lost on your youtube and website for hours. So much there and it looks like you have lots of fun doing it all!
You're an awesome jump roper! Hard to find vids of women doing those moves, so I loved it. In love w/the DCC training stuff too...what a cool gym!
I'm going to try those jumping jacks with the oly bar!
Good luck on your show! You look amazing already!!! You could bounce a quarter off your tush!!! I'm jealous :D

In store they were giving out the incorrect rebate form ($10 off, not $25 like Macy's website said). Macy's website was not
working to print out the $25 rebate form yesterday, and no one with the 1-800 customer service line will help.
Does ANYONE have the $25 Pandigital rebate form from Macys that they can send me? It was for this past weekend's sales

Congratulations on the come back. I watched the video above and actually got some Lunge ideas! Thanks! You do lunges that I've never imagined!
I like that variety where you do 2 reps on each step. I do quads today and lunges are on the menu. I'll be trying that for sure.
Good luck with your future endeavors.

Thanks so much for the nice comment. I think that lunges are by far the best shaping exercise. Have fun today!
PS You can also do the walking double lunge with a barbell across your back..

HI LL,
I did those today. Wow! What a difference. I did them after 5 sets of deep front squats. I can tell by how I feel right now, I'm going to have trouble walking by the AM. Good Idea with the bar-bell too. I kind of like them with DB's myself but something to kep in mind!
Have a good weekend!

Your blogs are actually fun to watch, very well put together. Most people dont put that much time into them with intros/narating and such.....very professional. You have a shape thats very aesthetically appealing to the eye, no real lagging or overpowering areas. Just out of curiosity, on your hyperextensions are u using your lower back or incorporating hams/glutes?
Lyzabeth Lopez
01-17-2010, 09:46 AM
Hey ya'll:)
Thanks again:)
Cape1.. intense lunges after heavy squats.. nice! That will leave you walking funny, lol
Slovation... thanks so much for the nice compliment:) With hyperextension, I mix it up depending on what needs work, what I worked that day etc..
Hyperextensions are actually one of my fav exercises to do and I do it in different ways.. sometimes focusing into my low back only and positioning the weight plate higher (closer to my face or behind my head) to hit the low back more. Sometimes I will make it into a ham/glute exercise and not come up as high and round my shoulders more, then I completely focus into ham/glute and try to avoid using the low back at all... it can be a very versatile exercise depending on how you do it... good question:)
Happy training:)) xoxo

Thanks! After watching your video blog, I was super motivated to go the extra mile in the gym today. :) As I was explaining to one of my kids, fitness is much more than sex appeal, it's being inspirational and being inspired. It's teachability, humility, belief in oneself, reaching high...looks like you're accomplishing that! I pray that you continue to have success in all that you do!
