I'm Mrs. Oh My Gosh That Brittny's Shameless

harder, better, faster, stronger

I started a new weight routine last week and because I have nothing else to talk about thought I would share it with you guys!

I was so sore all over the day afterwards. I must also mention I’ve been a HUGE gym loser (yes HUGE in all caps) and have only been lifting twice a weak… I mean week.

That’s a whole topic I could ramble ramble on about for quite some time, but I realize how excited you are to read about weight lifting and I don’t want to keep you waiting any longer! Just FYI I don’t have the program in front of me, so please excuse my terrible attempt to remember all this stuff.

Legs
Elevated Lunges w/ Dumbbells- these are so horrible! My whole leg was sore the day afterwards.
Leg Press Machine
Inward Thigh Raises (using a cable machine)
Outer Thigh Machine
Crap! There’s one more! I don’t remember the stupid name! Aside from the lunges, it’s the other leg exercise I love to hate. It’s that machine where you lay on your stomach and have a bar behind your calves and bring it up towards your butt… free cake to whoever tells me the right name! ha ha
I should do calf raises too- but between you and me- I don’t.

Chest
Inclined Bench Press
Inclined Bench Flies
Chest Pullover

Back
One Arm Pull Down (using a cable machine)
Bent Over Row- ha ha, okay- I have no idea if that’s the technical name, but that’s what my trainer calls it. It’s on a cable machine
Lower Back Extension Machine

Biceps
Bicep Curls w/ cable machine. For some reason these seem a little tougher than regular bicep curls with dumbbells, although, it could also be because they’re new.
Preacher Curls

Shoulders
Shoulder Press w/dumbbells
Deltoid machine

Triceps
Bench Dips w/ weights
Crap! Once again I forgot the technical name. I’m a weight lifting wimp! They’re triceps raises w/ a dumbbell. You hold the dumbbell behind your head and slowly raise it. More free cake to whoever knows the technical name! ha ha

Abs
Cable Crunches
Declined sit-ups w/ weights
And finally, what I call “The Chair.” The most hated exercise of all. Do you guys know this one? It’s that terrible raised “chair” back with no seat. I hate that thing.
I should do a few more different types of crunches but I never do.

So there you have it. Are you invigorated and thrilled by all this exciting weight chatter? I know I am! You know I’m skimming when this stuff gets posted.

PS- my sweet sister P is a genius. Like the new header title? She recommended I rip a lyric off of Brit’s new song. I loved it. I opted to get rid of the Jay-Z lyric that has been the title for quite some time and go with Britney. P- I love you! You’re such a smartie!

LOL I’m glad you pointed out the new header line.  It would have taken me forever to notice that it changed!  I have had that song in my head all morning long!  rasberry

I love the new header smile Just like Kassie, I’ve had the song in my head all day.

I need to get back into working out, I’ve yet to get into a routine since starting the 10 hour days, and I’m thinking it’s about time I get a routine!

Thanks for motivating me! tongue laugh

My routine:

Legs:  Swing them out of bed each time I need to pee/ get something to drink

Arms: Lift water bottle or cup of sugar-free Kool-Aid. Try to do frequently

Abs:  What abs?  They are MIA

I would also try doing squat with a barbell, you can really workout your legs that way.  Overall you seem to have a very good workout.

brittny I'm B-Love. I've just returned to America after spending three years in Kuwait with my husband Mr. B-Love and our two maltese, Boz and Lucy. We recently added two more doggies to our family, Rocky and Teddy. I love weight training, OU football, and lazy weekends. Buckle up and get ready for my constant embarrassing moments, continual madness at a new job, and my daily effort to rely on Christ while adjusting to life back in the real world.
