Random Thoughts...

A pound of fat bulges out 18% more than a pound of muscle. Muscle weighs more. Don’t stress about the scale.

During exercising, you must increase your hydration level! Even a very slight dehydration can slow your metabolism by 3% or about 45 fewer calories a day.

People often say that motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing...that's why we recommend it daily.

Water helps flush toxins & cellular wastes from the body, hydrates cells, aids in digestion, & maintains the health of skin, hair, and nails.

Thought of the Day

Nothing will work unless you do...to be successful, you must dedicate yourself 100% to your diet, training and mental approach..

Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday

Tuesday:
I worked out the Biceps and then did 2 Cardio Classes.
The First one I took was Hip-Hop Hustle. Hip-Hop Hustle is a Modified version of the classic Hip-hop Aerobics...just a little faster paced. The moves are not as technical but it's a fun class to go to...

The Second class I took is called "Strength and Training." This class is a more modified version of the classic Circuit Training class I use to teach back in the day.

Wednesday:
Shoulders and Turbo Kick Class...

Shoulders:
Side Laterals (5 sets with 15-12 reps)
Reverse Grip Front Raises (6 sets with 15-10 reps)
Seated Bent Side Laterals-Back Deltiod (5 sets with 12 reps)
Cable Upright Rows (6 sets with 15 reps)
Military Press (4 sets with 10 reps)

Turbo Kick Class with Alicia teaching.

Thursday:
Rest Day - Watching the NBA Finals with friends and family

Sunday, Monday and Tuesday

Sunday:
Yoga and Turbo Kick Class

Monday:
It was a Holiday and Aerobic classes were so hard to come by...I took a Zumba Class that was taught by Alicia...She's a fun aerobics instructor and easy to follow. It's been a while since I took any of her classes and I should make note to do it more often.

Tuesday:
Hip-Hop Aerobics and Circuit Training
I also worked my Biceps in the process...just for toning.

Saturday May 29

Run at the Beach
The past 2 days have been nothing but Cardio for me...nothing special, just working out the most important muscle in the group...the heart.

Today, I ran only 2 miles from Mission Beach to Pacific Beach....all on the nice and beautiful sand. One of these days, I'd love to run a Marathon...I just need to get my muscle mass down quite a bit and build up my endurance.
