It certainly works the obliques, maybe it'll help me drop that elsuive inch off my waist! I realised how much when we were doing side planks at pilates this evening - ow ow ow.
Great pilates class this evening. I really have a very low pain threshold when it comes to ab exercises though

That will be my last week of the lean phase and the whole Chalean Extreme programme. I would wholly rec it to anyone who wants to do weights at home.
Monday 25/09- Sun 30/09 > back to gym where I'll do the weights routine I got from gym instructor back last Spring. I've decided not to renew my membership when it finishes at end of October.
Monday 6/11 (after midterm break) I'll start my one months classes at Rock Fitness in Dundrum.
In December or maybe January, depending on finances, I will start kettlebell classes at All over fitness in Rathfarnham.
They say if you fail to plan you plan to fail so I'm evidently going to be completely awesome!

5k run done - pushed myself and have to face the facts that there is no way I will get a pb next week, unless they mis-measure by 500m! Did this race 2 years ago (my first ever race) in 29:07, so I'll beat that, but my 5k pb is 26:15 (March 2010) and I haven't a chance of getting close to that. I reckon it'll be around 27-28 mins....watch this space0 -

And I met with a p.t to get a body fat analysis. He did a 12 point mesurements and my total was 147.8mm => 17.7% :eek: This seems to good to be true to me but he stressed it's not how much skin you can pull it's the thickness underneath so maybe I am this lean :cool: - some of my mesurements I was really pleased with - 16.8 for triceps, supposedly most women are over 20

That is fantastic! You should be so proud of yourself, it is hard to get under 20% one of the fitness instructors I work with has been trying for a very long time to get hers under 20% and it happened recently and she was delighted and yes she is very lean. Well Done! Keep up the great work 0 -

Not being self-deprecating but I am hesitant to believe the reading, because I do not look like a super lean fitness instructor....YET!
but even if it's in reality 5% MORE, ie. 22% I'd still be happy.
maybe if I have a windfall I'll get an analysis done in the bodpos in Trinity for €60.
Today - 5k run in the sunshine (bit too hot!) in Marlay park.0 -

Heat outside today is lethal, wouldnt even mind but it's overcast, nearly melted when I went outside just there!
Where is this place in Trinity you are on about?
