New totals for July - Day 16
Miles - 64.88
Pushups - 1,950

Quick ST today along with 2 on the treadmill while my little girl took her nap. There is much to do this week but I want to finish strong and get in a few more workouts before we leave. I am very pleased with how my body has responded to my strength training, my diet and the overall changes I am seeing. I am actually looking forward to a new challenge which will start Monday August 6th.
Here are my results from today...
Morning ST - 30:03 mins -
Standard Military Push ups - 5 sets of 20 reps
Two arm bicep curls with sumo squats - 3 sets of 20 reps with 20 lb Db's
Squat Press - 3 sets of 20 reps using a 33 lb...(15 kg) plate
Plank Row - 3 sets of 30 reps with 8 lb Db's
Plank lateral raise - 3 sets of 30 reps with 8 lb Db's
Horizontal Chops with sumo squats - 3 sets of 20 reps with a 33 lb plate
2 Interval sessions on the tread today -

Walking incline intervals - 10% and 15% - max interval speed - 7.7 kph @ 10% grade - 25 mins, 1.55 miles AP 16:07
Finally, I did 200 cross body mountain climbers ( 100 reps each side) and then I did 100 Bosu ball pushups ( all military). I am happy I was able to get in 3 good workouts today, all of them short....a total of 75 mins but I pushed hard to make the most of every minute.

Hey, I stumbled across your blog a few weeks ago and have been coming back every now and again to review your exercises and diets. I must admit, this is damn impressive! As a graduate student with a bachelors in Kinesiology and currently working on my masters in exercise physiology, I must definitely congratulate you on a job well done! You've lost so much weight while keeping it healthy and you continue to keep it off! Great job! I definitely will be keeping tabs on your page. It's an inspiration to follow in your footsteps. You're workouts and diets give me renewed creativity with mine.

Herregud! i live in Sandnes too :) So glad I came upon this blog 'cause I find there are so many just trying to sell a particular program. I like how you've shared everything here. Would you reckon SparkPeople to help me stay motivated and tone up?
I would love to know how you prepare the Apple cider vinegar drink that you take as well. I think I've might have mentioned it on a previous post before, but so far no comment back.
Hi Jen!
I've just recently found your blog and find it very motivating.
I'm a food addict just beginning my own journey of recovery.
I wanted to add some simple hand weight exercises to my daily workout and am wondering if you have any recommendations for a beginner's routine.
Thanks!
Kelly
Woop! Gooooooo Jen!! We need an update!! It's August!! :-)
