Hey, Good going Linda!! Question.... what is bottoms up???

Bottoms UP! Is a weight training program by Joyce Vedral. I don't think it is in publication anymore. Her program "Weight Training made easier" replaced the Bottoms Up! program. They are basically the same with just a few changes in the new program. I know you can get used copies of it though. Mine was new... so I may be wrong about them not being published anymore.

I said a few posts back that I felt everything but maybe my ankles... well even my ankles are sore... ooowwww... I am sore EVERYWHERE!!! The most sorest spots are the inside of my knees... seems a strange place to be sore at

Got a late start this morning, but got it done! Still SORE, but I know that will get better. These second set of exercises make me work harder for sure! I'm not having trouble staying motivated at the moment. I am looking forward to next week and doing the 3rd set...

Oh, My am I SORE!

Lark hands Linda some heavenly scented massage oil. Now find that DH of yours and....well you know what to do.

HE'S NOT AROUND He is still in Alaska working, but on a brighter note... won't he be suprised when he does get home!!!

I walked 2 1/2 miles tonight... with the 10 pounds of dumbell's in my backpack! I don't think I am ready for that!!! Little to much to soon type stuff!

Day 10... 4 more days to make 2 weeks! I'm just so happy! Still sore, but did them... I think it might be getting better! And just about the time, I have it whipped, I will be starting the 3rd exercise in each set...

I've decided to take Mondays and Thursdays off instead of Tuesdays and Thursdays. That way I work my lower and upper before I get another day off. Maybe I am slipping, but I just don't FEEL like doing them today.

it posted twice... and it says I'm not allowed to delete it... oh, well, get to read it twice I guess... LOL

Day 12 done! I will be doing my w/o now in the evening. I am finding it a lot more convenient. I'm also finding the exercises are getting eaiser to do. I am looking forward to next week. The advanced sets... 3 sets of each exercise! And adding the 5 pound weights! I'm sure I will go back to being very sore for a few days!

I walked my three miles this morning and made it in 1 hour and 5 minutes!!! It usually takes me 1 hour and 20 minutes. Today I was running late and knew I had to push it. I also bought me some walking shoes and I think that helped. I didn't have any chest pains either. Usually when I push it I do, so I take it easy... wonder if it is the Low carb or the exercises that is helping... or maybe both.

This is what it will look like for the next couple of weeks or so... that part I am not sure about. I know I start my 3rd set Friday.

Lower body: three times per week
Middle body: five times per week
Upper body: two times per week
Aerobics: 6 days a week

Now the Aerobics are planned for 6 days a week, but in reality, it will probably be less, depending on the weather and other factors, but this is my plan. The w.o's I shouldn't have any problem following through with. I plan on working my middle 6 days a week starting in the next few weeks too. So we will just have to see.

I probably won't get to post my w/o today, but I will post it in the morning and I WILL do it tonight!

*update* I changed the amount of Aerobics to 6 days a week instead of 7.
