oof! I've ruined my workout regime! My workout plan for the past many months has been a weight training session every monday, wednesday, and friday with stretching and a little cardio. I just randomly havnt done it for almost two weeks and I gained almost 7 lbs in that time! This string made me want to get back on it so god damnit tomarrow I'm gonna have me a bigass workout! thanks bluelight
 
Well I have managed to stay motivated for another week. I did my 4km (plus I have started doing a sprint run up the dam wall instead of walking it now) on Thursday, missed Friday because I was busy so I made it up Sunday and I'm hoping to do a half hour of laps before netball if the oval isn't too wet and muddy. Then as a reward I'm going to the local show (carnival) tommorrow! I really want to go on some scarry ride... :)

My turn to be sick it appears... I've finally caught the flu and it had to happen the day before holidays finish and I have to go back to work. OMG work on Friday was miserable but hopefully i'll be over it in a few days.
 
OKay..so in the past couple days I havent been keeping track..but for the last two days in a row I did my sit ups, push ups, and yesterday I did a LOT of extra lunges. I could really feel it today! One thing Im keeping up with doing every day is lifting my weights. It really makes me feel good to do it.
 
^^ Consistency is the key!! :) It always feels good knowing that no matter how busy I am during the day, I get in the gym and do something good for *me*. Keeps me sane. :D

Wow, been a little while since I've posted here.... not as bad as it looks though :) I've been pretty good, only missing a day here or there (thx to my brand new mp3 player keeping me pumped). I'm up to doing 15 laps of the oval on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays when I get there early enough and otherwise keeping up my 4km if I don't get time at the track. 15 laps is just over 7km so I'm happy with that. I don't really think I need to do much more. It would be nice if I could get up to doing 10km and then alternate between doing 5 and 10 depending on what else has been going on during the day/week. I've also picked up my old weights bench from my ex/mates place and put it back together at home so I'm trying to do just a little bit every other day or so. More emphasis on the days I don't do cardio obviously :)
Should be doing a personal training course soon as soon as the $ is available so I'm pretty excited about that. Looking to just do it part time once qualified, working with a mate who's in the field already :) Happy happy joy joy, I'm getting really excited about a change of occupation within the next year.
 
I did 20 press ups when I got out of bed followed by 15 arm extensions on each arm. Then I did another 20 press ups followed by a 7.5km ride on the exercise bike and I'll do another 20 press ups and 15 arm extensions on each arm soon.
 
I just got another tattoo, and I've been advised to avoid working out for a couple weeks (til it heals) :( :( I don't know what to do with myself! I'm already feeling shitty about myself since I haven't been to the gym in 3 days. I guess missing a couple weeks at the gym is better than ending up screwing up a tattoo which is part of me forever ;)

Still sucks though :( I suppose I could do some things at home, like lift weights. I just can't do my usual cardio, because I'm supposed to avoid sweating for long periods of time or some BS :p
 
^I didnt know you couldnt work out with a new tat. Where is it located?

Ive been doing well. Every day or every couple of days I do a good workout (Ive been focusing on upperbody). Ive moved up in weight on my dumbells to 10 pounds (seems like a little but its hard for me, our family line of women are all tiny on top). So I consider it an accomplishment. Today I did a ton of sit ups too.

Click to expand...

It's on my upper back, right below my neck.

I didn't know you couldn't work out with a new tat either :X til AFTER I got it. Know how they advise you not to soak in a bathtub for a few weeks... well, there's similar reasoning behind not being able to work out. All the sweating is the same as soaking it in water, I guess. I dunno. I'm sure I COULD workout, but, better safe than sorry. There is also something about stretching the area. Like, right now its scabbing over (as it should) too much movement would probably rip up the scabs and that's bad.

I'm going CRAZY since I haven't been to the gym in like 5 days :X
 
2 sets of pushups in the morning

Walked home from work (4 miles)

I guess that's a workout :\
 
I started back at the gym on Friday, after getting the ok from my tattoo artist about working out while a tat is healing. Actually I have 2 healing tats right now lol. One is almost 2 weeks old and the other is 5 days old. But, no complications from working out so far.

Yesterday I went to the gym TWICE. Once in the mid afternoon (2pm I think) and then again around 9pm. Today I went around 11:30am, then I'm working from 4pm til about 11:30pm or midnight, then I'm going to force myself to go back again for another 1/2 hr after work. I feel like I have to make up for the week I missed last week 8)
 
Ever since my psoriasis came back full force, the only workout Ive been motivated to do is swimming. I just cant concentrate on trying to make my body look good when my skin is covered in lesions. This sucks. :(
