I'm not inputting my workouts twice, but I will comment on the exercises:
Squat - kind of timid today because I had a nasty stabby twinge in my outer right quad. I did a set of deads with a narrow...

I've been busy! Still working out, not always time to update.

I BEAT MY ALL TIME SQUAT RECORD. 90 Pounds, 4 reps. I also made a punching bag and got some gloves. I love my boxing workouts. ...

I'm not hardcore by any means, but I will ask a question:

What's your goal? Because everyone has different goals.

If you have a bad knee or a tendency, then those leg extentions might be...

If I only did one day in the gym, I'd do squats, deads, and go home. You could consider doing squats/deads instead of your back day. It will also hit your legs in a new and aggressive way.

I...

I did go back out in the garage the other night and finished the shoulders and arms. I really felt the upright row had given me a good shoulder and forearm workout, so it's permanent.

Well,...

Well, it's been a while. My husband had a minor skin infection. You would not believe all the hoops we jumped through. MRI, CAT scans etc.. and then a doctor says "Your home remedy would have...

August 6 and 9 I did cardio.

Today was deadlift day. My elbow's still bothering me a little so I had to modify.

Standard Deadlift: 7/65
Sumo: 13/25
Stiff-Legged: 15/55
Standard: 5/65...

August 5 was a little embarrassing. I had gotten stuck under a barbell the last time I squatted. It got kind of ugly. I wanted to be "careful" this time.

I didn't check the bar and realized...

August 3, Deadlift day
Took 50 minutes.

Stiff: 11/55
Standard: 8/55
Sumo: 14/22.5
Stiff: 11/55
Standard: 7/60 - added more weight
Sumo: 10/25 - I threw on another plate and got a really...

Now, about my workouts.

Last one I updated was chest day.

August 2 I did Arms and Shoulders. It took me an hour.

I did seated, bent over laterals: 10/3, 6/5, 7/3, and 10/2

The...

One more, these pants used to be tight on me.

Thanks! I'm going to get some new photos up - I lost over an inch off my waist this month. I love the metal. Love it! I used to KILL myself doing cardio trying to "transform" and it never worked....

I do about 1.5 hours of cardio, usually running, every week.

I have a family history of heart disease so it seems prudent. I run intervals in the park. I'm too fat to run the whole half hour,...

First off, I have to give you a hug, Fierce. Thank God, other women get it.

My Mom drank when pregnant and part of that is certain abnormalities, like short femurs and crooked pinkies. I look...

The first week is hard, I know. I felt like a junkie going off the stuff.

I realized I had 2 choices, go on the way I was and end up like the people I see on the bus (diabetic, obese,...

This explains why guys at work only mention my weight loss if I mention it first:

"I've lost 34 pounds!"
"I can tell, you look great!"

Now I get the sequence. LOL

I have lost 34 pounds since Feb 26, 2008 and 7 inches EACH off my waist and hips, doing Atkins and lifting weights 4-5 hours a week. I also run 3 times a week for 30 minutes each.

It sure works...

Pumice Stone. You can get a whole "manicure kit" at the dollar store for $1, loaded with the things. Wet your hands and the stone and just rub it off. You can use soap if you'd like.

DH...
