Sweat365 - Move more - every day!
I introduced Natasha to the stairclimber today. We only did 10 minutes. Then we did some strength training to help with her volleyball.
Workout:
Variety of core work with clients throughout the day.
Workout:
Walked 2 miles on treadclimber. Lifted weights.
Workout:
I wanted to get 30 miles this week, so I went to the gym a slowly jogged 2 miles. I did some light strength training and ab work. Happy Easter!
Workout:
My feet are feeling a little tired. I bought a new pair of shoes today, just to prevent injuries. Replacing shoes frequently is one of the best things you can do to stay injury free. My 20 mile race is coming up on Saturday. Phil and Natasha are gone all weekend at a volleyball tournament. I’m hanging out with Chris and Murphy, just trying to carb up and get hydrated for Saturday.
Workout:
I did a little Elliptical and some strength training. My left ankle is a little swollen. I think I need to seek out softer running surfaces this week.
Workout:
Phil and I did a fun workout Saturday morning. We knew that we’d be in a volleyball tournament all day, so it was good to do something before hand.
Workout:
Phil, Natasha and I went to the gym for a core workout. Phil is doing his heavy lifting on his own. Natasha needs to build strength to help her with volleyball. All of us need core training.
Ab Crunches on Dynadisc
Side Crunches on Stability Ball
Wood Choppers with Medicine Ball
1 Arm/1 Leg Squat to Shoulder Press
Jump Drills for Volleyball
Leg Press
Hack Squats
Seated Abduction
Assisted Pullups
Seated Chest Press
Seated Military Press
Standing Rotation with Medicine Ball
We did a variety of exercises. Natasha has been experiencing back pain during volleyball. I think the fact that she is uber-flexible is part of the problem. She needs some stability to balance out her flexibility. She is so used to gymnastics and dance where flexibility helps. She doesn’t engage her core when she jumps. She arches he back and the result is pain.
Workout:
Phil and I went for round two at the gym. Our workout was short and intense. My goal is to improve core strength and incorporate functional training into Phil’s routine. He kicks butt on the traditional moves, but when we do things that involve rotation, he gets really sore.
Here is our workout:
Workout:
Phil has wanted to workout with me for a couple of months now. Today, we finally got around to it. We hit the gym, where Phil became acquainted with the bosu, the dynadisc, the stability ball and a few muscle groups he hadn’t used in a while.
Here is our workout:
Dynadisc crunches, 2 sets - 15 reps
Dynadisc modified bicycle crunch, 2 sets - 12 reps each side
Forward/Backward lunges onto a bosu, 2 sets - 10 each side
Double bosu pushups - 2 sets - 10-15 reps
Single squat with 1 arm db shoulder press, 2 sets - 10 each side
Back Extensions on stability ball, 2 sets- 15 reps
Lateral flexion on stability ball, 2 sets 10 reps each side
Hopefully, Phil will comeback and workout with me again. He whined a little, but not much more than any client the first time out. 
Workout:
Although I got a late start, I’ve been a serious runner since 1994. I ran my first marathon in 1995 on my 30th Birthday. It’s been my goal to run the Boston Marathon since then. I missed qualifying by 12 minutes that year. I needed to run 3:40 and ran 3:52. Running in the most prestigious marathon, is the ultimate for most runners. The fact that you have to qualify, only fueled my competitive juices.
Over the next 9 years I ran 6 more marathons. I love running so much that I became a personal trainer and running coach in 2001. I continued to train and came within 4 minutes of my goal in 2003, when I ran 3:49. I was seriously hoping to qualify in 2004, but it didn’t happen. I had flare ups of plantar fasciitis off and on since I began running. In 2006 I ran 5 half marathons. Apparently this was too much for my body to handle. My plantar fasciitis became acute. I had to take time off to heal. (more...)
