My muscles hate me. I did a ton of exercises I never do on Monday then I didn't rest yesterday. I took it easy but I didn't rest. I think I'm just gonna do five minutes of little exercises on legs, abs and arms in my apartment today just to get them engaged...and maybe go for a walk later. A WALK, nothing where I exert myself...more like something to get my muscles moving because right now they're so tight I'm basically walking around my apartment without bending my knees. I have to have my calves back for yoga tomorrow or it will be a waste to go.
I noticed yesterday that there has been a tremendous improvement in my arms. Two weeks ago if I had my hands on my hips my arms looked great! Light definition, very little in the flab department....but when I'd put my arms by my sides they'd get flattened out across my body. I noticed yesterday that my arms look the same when my hands are on my hips as they do when they're by my side. I've obviously gotten more muscle and gotten rid of some more flub! I was a little conscious about it...I tried to position my arms differently for photos so it wouldn't show up...now I don't have to worry!
But...no move on the scale. I'm starting to get really angry at it. Down 2,600 calories Monday and Tuesday and it hasn't budged. I know, I know, muscle weighs more than fat, but MOVE. MOVEEEEEEE. Get stuck at 129! I'm just so sick of being stuck in the 130s! Get stuck in the 120s, please!

My body is not liking me either. Jumped on the treadmill last night and it was almost miserable. My hips are killing me! Thinking about taking the night off from the exercise. Maybe I'll just do some stretching.
Way to go with the arms! I know exactly what you mean, but I haven't fixed mine yet! What have you been doing for lifts??

In a strange move, it was my butt muscles that gave out yesterday. That was odd...running and all of a sudden crashing into the front panel because your butt muscles were like, "Haha, not moving." That's what I get for doing a billion squats and lunges on Monday. I've never heard that happen before! We're in it together, it seems! I don't remember the exact names, but I use basically every machine my gym has in terms of arms. I do three reps of eight with only 30 seconds between each rep. I read in a women's health magazine that your body can lift more if you take time between each rep, but you burn more fat if you only take a 30 second break. While I want muscle, I'd rather burn the fat. Get both that way. I also do my weights so that I feel "worked" at the beginning of the first set of reps. If it was pretty to get to the end of the third rep then it's not enough weight. That third one should be a "I know I can I know I can I know I can!" I also do a lot of yoga and that was where I saw the first change in my arms. I got a lot of really strong, lean muscle from yoga lessons.

Crashing into the front panel of a treadmill would just "brighten" my day! Jeez.. Your butt muscle got the best of you on that one! I usually just work the machines as well but I have a tendency to concentrate on the leg ones since that is my main problem area. Do you do all three sets on one machine before moving to the next one? That's usually what I do, but I wasn't sure if it is better to rotate throughout or not.

I have the same issue with squats and lunges, it hurts to sit the day or so after. But that means you're working hard and you will have a toned rear end :) I always find working different muscle groups when one is sore seems to do the trick. Why not try some upper back and arm moves tonight and leave your sore legs and butt to rest? You could also do some walking to stretch out the soreness - or as you once told me, jog as slow as you can. :D Good luck with the exercise girl - my Spike Diet book says soreness after exercise is inevitable and good and used some big term for what its called... starts with a G maybe? C? Oh, I don't know all I do know is that it's good what you're doing!

Starbird, I'm the opposite! I've always had a problem with really muscular legs, so I do yoga/running/pilates primarily to tone up my legs. I do all three sets before moving on based on logic I made from the "burn more fat" thing: if you do one rep then switch it up, you're more likely to build easily on muscle mass because those muscles get more time to rest. Allie, I'm quite fond of my butt, so it's definitely one of the areas I want to pay attention to! :D I planned a walk in to help get some of that lactic acid out that is making it feel like I have steel for calves....let's see if I get to it!
