Training with Jen and Broken Blog

I found out today that a couple of links on my blog are broken.  The contact me and the about Lyn pages are producing errors.  My IT guy (hubby) is working on it.

Today, I scheduled a trainer workout with Jen.  Chelsea was out of town.  I used to workout with Jen.  It’s been about a year.  She definitely did not let me down and gave me a great workout.  I really enjoyed the “same but different” theme throughout the workout.

First, I warmed up on the elliptical for 20 min.

Then w/Jen:

• Lat pull down (using a different bar/grip that my normal) -70lbs, 15 reps, 2 sets
• Cable triceps pull down – 2 sets of 12 reps of 50 then 40, then 30, then 20 lbs all in a row.  My triceps already feel it.
• Squat w/curl and press – 2 sets of 20 w/10lb dumbbells
• Lunge w/knee drive – 2 sets of 20 on each side
• Back extension w/punches – holding 5 pound plate in each hand, 4 sets of 15
• Bench side bends – this was really hard and my sides cramped up easily.  In total, I probably had 10 sloppy ones on each side
• Barbell dead lift (off bench) – 45ish lb bar, 2 sets of 20 reps

I’m going to be sore tomorrow.  It’s a good sore.

Next up: cardio.  I’m thinking about trying the new Zumba class.  There’s a new instructor for the 9:30am class in the morning.
