Thanks, I AM training hard. I am trying to take advantage of this time as much as I can, before I really have to turn the screws and tighten everything up more for Nationals. I will stay under 120 pounds until 4-6 weeks out, no matter what, but I am trying to lift heavier and focus more on my weight training and less on cardio right now.
Went to the chiro and got adjusted... he said my sacrum/hips were so out of whack that it was cutting off some of the blood supply to my lower body, which is prolly why my legs have been so tired. He even adjusted my knees.
Stella - I am not a huge fan, but I have been looking into massage, and I may go to sports massage once or twice a week in the next several weeks if I can afford it.
Mike - not sure what happened to the video... good question.
Michele - 50?!?!!
That's how you got your abs looking so nice, huh?
I with ya though... hanging leg raises (I'll work my way up to 50 if I can!), weighted ab crunches...for sure! And no oblique training... I haven't trained my obliques in over 2 years and my waist is actually 2 inches smaller than it was when I competed in 2006!
Thanks so much for the advice. I am trying to hit my abs much more this time around, and I will dedicate my next ab workout to you!
We're going racing this weekend.... I hope... my husband is terribly sick in bed right now, and I feel awful for him. He's in rough shape. I am just trying to help him out this weekend and somehow keep myself from getting sick. 40 mins of cardio this morning, and a shoulder workout tonight... and then no cardio or weight training for me Sat or Sunday... just physical activity at the track if we go.
