Still going.....

Hello all of you fabulous followers! So BBC is just awesome and we are still going at it hard as ever! We're stepping it up on weights, reps and even warmups. It's great. We're even working out 6 days a week!

On Saturday Ben took our measurements. I have still only lost 1 pound BUT.... that's not important. My goal was to get my body fat down to 25% by the end of the 16 weeks. Well.... In 6 weeks, I brought it down 7%! yay! I have lost about 4-5 inches. I don't have the numbers right in front of me. So, I'm very happy with the results thus far. It makes me want to keep on pushing now that I know how well I've done up to this point.

Tonia & Erica are huge motivators for me. They really push themselves which makes me want to do as well as them. I think we all bounce the energy off of eachother. It's great. Today was Tabata and because it's Tuesday, Tonia wasn't there, bummer! We missed you T! So we did 4 stations, 2 exercises at each station. Did each exercise 40 seconds w/ 20 second break. We did 4 rounds per exercise at each station. Then 40 second break to switch to next station. It was tres diffy.

Station 1: Rows w/ Rings & Deadlift @ 65 lbs.
Station 2: Clean & Plate Press w/ 35 lbs & Pushups
Station 3: Gobblet Squat w/ 35lb KB & Hip Flutters
Station 4: 35lb KB swings & Renegade Rows w/ 15 lb db.

So we get done and E & I help Ben put away the weights. I look at Ben and he's looking around the gym thinking... "Ok, what am I going to have them do next." I turned to Erica and said "We're not done" and she said "Nope." So, he teamed E & I together vs. C & L. We used (2) 53 lb kbs and they used 44 kbs. Erica and Lisa started the farmers lift. Walked w/ 1 kb per hand to other end of gym, then stopped, did 5 burpees (meanwhile, me & C are doing pushups) then they picked the KBs back up, walked back to us. Then it was our turn. We did this at least 5-6 times. Holy cow. Then it was stretch time!

Just to let you know. My biceps are burning as I type this blog!

Wanted to thank all of my good support people (family, friends & moosers) but especially Scott. Every day he says something to keep me motivated ... this morning he said he was really proud of me for the commitment I've made. Made me feel really good. Thanks Honey!
