I would like to be able to keep up with my daughter. The one who runs xc, not the one who's going to change the world through dance. Although I would like to be able to dance also, so I change that to me wanting to be able to keep up with both my daughters.
Personal:
I have two gorgeous daughters; two good-looking cats and two dogs with great personalities.
I hate getting sick. It's almost like starting all over for me.

I bet the rest was what you needed. :)

hey, I have a question. You were telling me about those whatever sit ups where you hook your ankles instead of your toes. But I don't ever hook my feet on anything. All the kinds I do either have my feet flat on the floor or up in the air.
Sometimes starting over's okay. Especially if you tracked the first time you had to start over and you're incremently better than before.
Hon,
The point of hooking your ankles and flexing your hamstrings and glutes is to release your hip flexors and make your abs do all the work. You're not just doing a crunch worth of movement. The movement is that of an old-fashioned situp. You bring your upper body up.
Yaaaay! 4 weeks will go fast. If I could have my mouth shut for 4 weeks, you can handle 4 more weeks there... yeah, I know, not even comparable, right?
I give myself a minute for pullups, two for situps and pushups with two minutes rest between. There's a test I'm preparing for and I use the criteria for it to do my assessments. If only I had a pool...
Lucia,
They're similiar in the fact that we can't wait until the four weeks are done :)
That would be very sweet of you Lucia. And when you win the Powerball, I'll remind you.
It's the Physical Abilities and Stamina Test (PAST). It's for the career field in the Air Force I'd like to try out for. They also test running and swimming, which is why I wish I had a pool.
Btw ... I might do week one twice ... I want to get my form on the chinups (or if I can figure out the stinkin' hard pullups thing) better before I move forward. Or should I just move forward? My technique stinks big time!

I re-sent the message from my email to your email :) I switched my blog email to gmail and I started getting all kinds of updates... and then I switched back to my aol email. so no more updates, but I should still get the private messages. We'll see. Message me back and we can see.
Thanks Teena, go forward when you're ready. There's no rush. Unless you count the pullup smackdown in Jan.
You can continue the program with the pushups and situps and while scaling back on your pullups.
Honey,
I can't keep up with the two addresses I have. I'm not going to open a gmail. It's pretty ironic how I can't juggle two email account and my career is based on multitasking. I'll send you a test PM.

No need to get a gmail. I was just letting you know it seems to be an aol thing.
