as long as we're doing this kick butt (and leg) workout. My training partner is on vacation, so I was on my own today. The only thing I cut out were the standing calf raises in favor or extra stretching.

Squats 3 sets 12x115 lbs. supersetted w/plie squats 3 sets x 20
Walking lunges 3 sets 12x20's supersetted w/3 sets 20 jump squats. Took mini pauses at 10, longer pauses at 15 but completed 20 for each set.
Step ups with weights -- 3 sets 12x20's -- actually for each set of step ups I'm doing 12 total (six each leg), but I realize I should be doing twice that. The reverse lunges I did 15 each side for 3 sets. I felt guilty about cutting short the sets, so I did an extra set of the stepups as described.

SLDL's 3 sets 12x85 superset with 3 sets 20 hip extensions on the swiss ball.

Seated calf raises: 4 sets 15x70 (lower weight than previously, but better form...more complete raises)

Once again, after doing this workout I felt wonderful!

Tonight did HIIT on treadmill--10 intervals (25 min. total)

I missed recording yesterdays workout, but I did it, finished everything. Didn't get to do cardio last night because I had to go turkey shopping with bf.

Today diet started out great: pre/postworkout yogurt,berry,protein shake
breakfast: oatmeal
lunch: It was not my idea to have a potluck! Plus, I brought super healthy southwest bean salad. I piled my plate with lightly dressed veggies, had some turkey, one slice of ham that sucked. My bean salad. Bad: someone made stuffing and I ended up having two servings. Also, had a piece of really bad pumpkin pie (why? why???). It was so disappointing, I tried someone's dump cake--tiny square--it was way too sweet. Sit around long enough and I was disappointed in my desserts, I had another piece of the dump cake with vanilla ice cream! I don't even like ice cream that much. It was all crap and not worth the calories--totally disappointing. I'm thinking of not even making pumpkin pie since my bf won't eat it...only an apple pie for him. Anyway, no more food for me tonight.
