    sierrak is getting psyched up to run the C25K!

    At Last I Made it to the Body Pump class twice in one week!  — 3 months ago

    I am ecstatic that I was able to fit the noontime class into my schedule today. Things were pretty calm at work, so I took an extra hour off at lunch to attend the class. I feel really good now, and I can’t wait to go again on Saturday!

    Went to Body Pump again today  — 3 months ago

    I was a little concerned, due to conflicts I hadn’t been able to make it to the Body Pump class for two weeks, but it went fine.

    I wish I could bottle the feeling after the class is over, it ’s a combination of adrenaline rush plus accomplishment. If I can just keep focusing on the results, it will be easier to work my schedule around to attend more than jsut on saturdays.

    Body Pump Rocks!  — 3 months ago

    Again, another week where I only made an appearance at the Body Pump class once. I so want to go more than once a week, in fact I like it so much that I am omg serisouly considering going to the class at 5:30 AM on Monday. I feel so good after this class, I can only imagine how I’d feel if I went two or three times a week!

    Third week in April  — 4 months ago

    Only managed to lift weights twice. Darn! I went to the Body Pump class again this morning, which is the second time I attended it. I’m not nearly in as much pain as I was last week. I really like the class.

    My plan for the next week is: Try, try , try to attend Body Pump twice, and the third time, lift weights at home, concentratin on my weak spots at the class, which are push-ups, lunges, and abs.

    Week of 4.12.08 "Body Pump"  — 4 months ago

    I only lifted weights one time, but it was a killer. My friend Polly is teaching a new class at our Rec Center called Body Pump. It was 60 minutes of weight training to music. It was very hard for me, but I managed to hang in there for the entire hour. (The worst part for me was the push-ups).

    I’m glad I went to this, it was fun and very motivating. I’m going to try to attend the class twice a week from now on. Unfortunately, the only time that really works for me is the Saturday Class, going to have to shift some things around to make it to another one.

    Week 1 2008 Results  — 4 months ago

    I managed to do the weight training routine two times this week. Not too bad for my first week, but I need to do better!

    I picked up a new book called “strength Training for Women” which I just love! There are so many choices for making your own weight training program, and the photographs of how to correctly do each exercise is great!

    So today, i did all the exercises from the other book I had been using, plus pushups, and two exercises for my back and shoulders. I feel sore in a very good way right now. I am very psyched to keep this up!

    Going to Get Back On this Goal....  — 5 months ago

    So yesterday I did the weight training routine from the book “Strong Women Stay Young” for the first time in a few months. It felt good. I decided to try the leg exercises with the same leg weights I had used before, and today my legs are quite sore.

    I am convinced that to achieve my weight loss goals, I need to turn a lot of this fat into muscle. And I believe that weight training is the way to achieve this.

    I’m going to look into possibly using some of the weight machines at my local rec center, maybe once a week, but I think in order to achieve this goal I need to do the weights at home at least twice a week.

    Re-opening for Next Three Weeks  — 8 months ago

    Worth doing!

    As a part of muscle confusion (what I earlier described as “periodize my workouts”), I’m going to return to weight training three times a week.
