24July2009

Hey everyone! My name is Hollie and I am 25 years old. I am an LPN and I work at a Health clinic. I have a couple of goals that I would like to accomplish, one of them are to compete and hopefully win a figure competition. I was involved in cheerleading and gymnastics in the past so I would say I am pretty athletic already. I would just like to have a more toned and muscular body. My biggest problem that I have is not eating the right foods!!! I will post my daily workouts and I will post my beginning pics. I am at work right now and I can not post pics from work. If anyone has any suggestions feel free to comment and help me out. I greatly appreciate it. The competition is October 17, 2009, so I have about 12 weeks to do this thing!!!!!!!

Thank you for reading!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hollie

I meant to update my journal yesterday but I forgot. Yesterday was Monday! I had to work from 7am-4pm. Then I went to the gym. Yesterday I worked on upper body for 45 minutes and then I did HIIT. I just started doing HIIT. I am trying to work up to 30 minutes right now I am up to 14 minutes.

Walk for 6 minutes at 3.0 with incline of 10%

Run for .30 with speed at 7.0 with incline of 10%

Then walk again for 1.5.

After I do the 14 minute run I cooled down. I am still working my way up to the 30 minutes mark. I felt like my heart was going to jump out my chest! But I am pouring sweat and I love it!!!

Then I did Abs for 10 minutes...........I LOVE ABS!!!!!!!

I tried to put my diet from fitday.com up here, but I couldn't get it. When I tried to post it to imagehost it did not work. But I will try again tonight when I am home, because my work computer practically blocks everything.

Today after work will be:

Legs, Shoulders, Calves, and abs

I downlaoded iFitness on my iPod and has so many exercises on it. I think today I will try

Legs:
-back squat
-bar squat
-barbell hack squat
-barbell lunge

Shoulders:
-arnold press
-bar military press
-bar upright row
-cable rear lateral raise

Calves:
-Alternating Seated calf raise
-Barbell Standing Calf raise

Abs:
-ab crunch on a ball
-abdominal twist
-of course i have to add the plank

I will let you come back afterwards and let you know how many sets and reps I did of each.

WISH ME LUCK!!!!

Well according to my iFitness thing on my iPod a back squat is when you hold the barbell behind you right where your shoulders are and then u squat!!! It doesnt explain it, it just shows pictures on how to do it.

Yesterday I took a day off from the gym because my body was still sore and I wanted to give it a rest.

So tomorrow I will do my Back and Biceps!!!!

HMoore · 08-02-2009, 10:00 AM

Today I did Back, Biceps and abs.

I was a little pissed because my gym was closed today so I had to go to the free gym on base. The gym I usually go to is an all girls gym but the free gym on base is for the men and women. I dont like working out with men because they take up all the benches and weights and ****. It also makes me miss my boyfriend more.

I didnt really work out that hard today because I was out of my element!

Back raise: 3 sets of 15 reps

Seated Row: 30x16, 45x10, 35x12, 25x20, 25x20

Arm Curl: 10x16, 15x12, 15x10

I am drinking my first protein shake that I made and it is soooooooooo nasty, I dont know if I will be able to drink it all!!! I am sure it would taste better if I had a blender, and then the chunks wouldnt be there!!!
