Today was good

I felt tight but not real sore.  So I must be getting use to all of this.  New equipment arriving this week to supplement and assist in my training.  It's called a pool bar which is a chin up and dip bar for the pool.  It's something I have wanted for quite some time.

Full Potential and return of UBOS

Tonight I feel I felt the full potential of both LOBOS and UBOS. First I did the UBOS first and got a really good workout.  I am telling you I felt its power and how it isolates and puts the full load on my muscles.  UBOS are far better in this respect than AquaLogix even though I feel AquaLogix bells have some very good qualities about them.  I really felt the UBOS tonight. Onto the LOBOS.  I feel by doing the UBOS first  I got warmed up a little.  Tonight I felt really taxed hard by the LOBOS.  I worked much harder and boy can I feel it!!! I am going to be sore tomorrow I can tell.  But I love it!!  I don't mind.  Bring it on!!

Updates

So I need to catch up for about 2 weeks  of workouts.  Some days were tough for me.  Motivational wise I mean but I didn't give up and still did a minimum of 3 times each week.  I averaged a workout every other day except when it came to the weekend.  I took an extra day off and got some rest first before beginning.  My last workout was yesterday and it went well.  The changes are more pronounced in me.  I do 1000 reps each time.  Sometimes it was rough to get going but as soon as I warmed up everything went smooth.  My biggest problem was keeping count and I know I repeated a set sometimes.   UBOS workout should be starting again soon.  I purchased a piece of pool workout equipment called a "Pool-up" bar which I will incorporate into all of this.  I like the way I feel and have also started very slowly to bring in nutritional changes.  I discovered there are Food Co-ops in our area.  I went to the health food or natural market and purchased some organic tomatoes and apples.  Bought hulled hemp seeds for protein and whole grain hot cereal, natural granola.  They had many things which interested me.  Also bought a multi-vitamin but in a liquid form for better assimilation.  2 Tbsps every morning before going to work.  I might even get in the pool today and I want to take pics to see how I have changed   I think its been a month since I took photos.  I still have a long long way to go.  Here I come!!!

Sunday's W/O

To me things just keep getting better and better.  Very nice LOBO workout.  I just feel stronger and stronger all the time.  I can see myself venturing to try tennis again in about a month.  If all goes well and I expect they will it will be a reality.  I am even contemplating a set of the RAMBOS to hit other areas of the legs.  UBOS are on the back burner for a little bit but I expect to be back online with them in a short time.  Stomach is looking flatter and I like what I am seeing.  My biggest problem is time not going by fast enough. LOL....I want to do this everyday now.

Today

Good workout tonight.  800 reps with LOBOS.  What I like is feeling that muscle underneath grow and grow feeling tighter all the time.  Even after the reps tonight I don't feel sore or wore out.  I worked on slow uniform repetitions.  UBOS also went well 3 sets of 50 reps of the chest and back muscle exercises completed just a little tightness.  Atmosphere was perfect.  Mood music was set, bug repeller assisted.  Now comes the dedication to the goal.  No breaks no time off.  Stay on schedule..

P. S.

When I am away to long it feels harder to get back up to speed.  All the more reason to keep on track.

Longer break than usual

My last workout was Thursday and I fully expected to resume Sat skipped that day for more rest and for the first time in quite some time my back acted up while cutting the grass on Sunday.  Just didn't think it would be wise to workout while in pain.  Woke up today and was pain free.  My back is always stiff though and I don't think that will ever change.  I was surprised I even worked out today since it was the 4th and family was over.  I was determined not to be behind even more and did my workout.  Something is different though.  I did about 700 reps and I have no soreness whatsoever.  Everything went fine on the UBOS just took some extra care with strapping the velcro correctly.  I had to cut the UBO workout a little short though because my nieces daughter kept swimming near me and kept trying to play with me.  She is only 3 yrs old bless her heart I will make up for it Wednesday.  I just couldn't push her away kept wanting to play with her uncle.  :) I feel the need to up the reps though.  Plus I am ready for new exercises from the inventor.  Lets go I am ready!!!
