Sunnyday's Training Journal

[Sunnyday]

Forgot to mention that while I was training a fossil-aged powerlifter friend asked me to take pics of him nailing a 700-lb rack pull...and at 67 years old! It was awesome to watch!

So between him, my girl with the 50s x 2, and me all hitting PRs we also succeeded in chasing all the resolutioners out of the weight area and onto the cardio equipment.

That's what I thought when my fossil friend pulled that yesterday and with pics to prove it. If it's any consolation he had Versa Grips. Oh, and that was the ONLY movement he did yesterday. Bypassed the rest of his workout. Bet he'll take off today and I won't see him again until tomorrow.

No doubt about it, it WAS one impressive lift. I've not seen anyone else in my gym attempt it, though there are many younger ones who could. Personally I'm more impressed at someone who pulls 600 for reps and still has enough in the tank to kill it for another 45-60 minutes, then come back the next day and murder another body part. Rinse and repeat week after week.

My kiddo beat ALL her best times! Biggest highlight was beating her 100 backstroke time by a whopping 23 seconds!!

Regionals on Feb 4th, Championships on Feb 14! I'll be timing at regionals. I'm clerking swimmers at Championships which is a PAID POSITION! Putting the cash toward my 2015 competing fund. Gonna get that stage one way or another.

Not sure how I missed this. Congrats to your daughter!! I wonder where she gets her competetive spirit from??LOL. There is nothing better than seeing your child excell in sports.

Yeah, I wonder where she gets it from, LOL!

I love watching the expression on a kid's face when they've hit a personal best at anything - sports, school, whatever. Being there to support them to get there and then rejoice along with them is such a privilege.

Chiro appointment this afternoon. He hammered me like I told him to. In fact, if he would have given me a hint of a fluffy adjustment I would've punched him. But he always comes through for me. Feeling pretty beat up as I type this. But in a good way.

you should have a sweatshirt made for yourself that says BEAST MODE
and one for your daughter that says BEAST MODE 2.0

Sitting at the orthodontist with my oldest, wishing I could write up today's workout. But it will have to wait. Ya think I'm excited about it?!

To my kids' school nurse:
I am indebted to you. Thank you for going nine rounds with me and my pediatrician's and dentist's offices and quoting us county policy that requires you to be such a *****. Because of you I'm now on a first name basis with every doctor and dentist who cares for my children. And you managed to get me so fired up it fueled the best arm workout I've had in my entire life. No pre-workout needed.

Please let's chat again soon!

Love it!! But she would never wear hers. Lol.

I told my husband I wanted to get him a "My wife can lift more than you" shirt. He said he wouldn't wear it.

frankly I don't get them

[Sunnyday]

Argh! Tried to write this. Accidentally hit submit. No numbers just exercises. Ugh. Will have to wait. :-(

Once again, I'd like to thank my kids' school nurse who inspired this workout. I went toe to toe with her nine rounds, took nearly two hours going back and forth.

Walked in the gym and saw some friendly faces, told them I was half tempted to hit a PR on every exercise I was so fired up. They dared me. Result: I was too tired to walk into the school and choke the nurse. In fact, I'm so tired hours after that workout that I'm still having trouble lifting my arms!
