100d x 10m = 1 strong core (Page 43)

Ifinally missed my first day yesterday....it had to happen at some point, right??  I was super busy all day and had 30 minutes set aside before a late dinner with my hubby and bed.  A friend I haven't talked to in months called and we spent 90 minutes catching up.  There went my block of time AND I was late for dinner.  By the time I was done eating and my food settled I was asleep for night 

Good thing my core class tonight is 30 minutes!

Jumped out for a couple of days...you know, life gets a person hopping sometimes

Did a make up session tonight. Including w/u was 22min-

3x:
25 v-sit crunches, 25 torso twists 8lbs L/R, 10 full length sit ups 8lbs, 1min wall sit, 1min low plank, 10 revolved abs L/R, 10 hip dip planks L/R

Back in the game yesterday after my unscheduled day off.  I did a few new things in core.  One was a seated med ball twist but instead of just holding the ball at chest level and rotating, we started with the ball above the head.  The motion was a wood chop down to one side along with the twist, then arms come back over head before alternating sides.

For the other, we started on our backs with a 5-8 pound dumbbell in the right hand with arm straight to the ceiling.  Left arm is out in T on the floor.  Knees are bent, rotated to the floor on the left and stacked as best you can.  Using your left arm for support, and leading with the extended right arm holding the dumbbell, lift your whole body up to a seated position trying to keep the knees immobile.  The harder variation of this would be to take the left arm off the floor and keep the hand on the top knee so it cannot assist with the sit up motion.

Good job everyone.  It's great to read all the report-ins.  It is a great way to keep me motivated to keep up.

Got my core in last night after a hard 60 minutes on the trainer and a 6 mile run.  I am really starting to feel stronger.

Geez Steve, only 60 minutes riding, 6 miles of running and 10 minutes of core?  Didn't have time for a long workout?? 

Ooooh! I like those

Had a very core-centric yoga session today

Tomorrow my son starts school, which means I get my first Wed yoga. Yippee!!! It will also take my mind off of him being in first grade... ALL DAY

Love the new avi picture!  Now go practice some balance 

Originally posted by 4agoodlife My first back2back Tues/Wed yoga classes. Felt pretty good, but I must say two days of inverted splits bites...especially since I can't get anywhere near full floor splits.

Now that would be a fun challenge!

;)

I'm liking everyone's commitment here...looking good people!

(I'm going to try to e a bit better than I have been lately:/)

Just curious.  What is a dying bug?

Greetings from 35K feet...on the way back from Atlanta (still freaks me out you can do webby stuff up here...). 

Got my core in at the hotel...even did some hot yoga stuff in the pool area.  People must have thought I was crazy!!

First tri in three years this weekend.  Only 300y/8mi/5K, but gonna give it hell anyways!  Should be able to red line it the whole way.

Anyone else racing?

Nice job getting the core done in the hotel. Dang, you people are motivated.

And racing this weekend?  Excellent!  Give em hell. 

I'm racing too :)
