Weights

Hello There,
Glad to hear you are enjoying the weather so much. I have great news. Nick and I had pizza again last night and I finally perfected the dough recipe. Next time or one of the times we get together I will teach you guys how to make it. It was great tasting and perfectly crips/soft. I am excited to spread the word on that one.

As far as the weights I do...I use 5 lb. weights. Sometimes I use no weights and will go through the exercises without the weights. This is because my back isnt as strong as it should because of my accident, so I am working on making it stronger. I will also do less lb. of weights and more repetitions, for example 5 lb. weights, 2 sets of 20 reps. I dont want to build muscle, I want to stay lean and just keep up with the muscle that I have.

The types of exercises I do are pretty basic. I have a workout dvd at home that I can burn for you guys. Actually, I think Caitlin has a copy of it. But I do standard biceps curls, triceps, lungs while holding the weights, I use my exercise ball a lot and do some stability and core work as well as military press, bench press, etc. A lot of times I will just buy a fitness magazine and find exercises that I like in there. I also have some workouts that one of the trainers at work designed that I can show you if you would like. Maybe the next time we get together it is sharing food and sharing workouts. What do you think. I don't know if that helped you at all. Some stuff is a lot easier to show than to explain.
