BLOGGER TEMPLATES AND TWITTER BACKGROUNDS »

Presenting the Babes:

Hi! We're Karita and Liz! We're just 2 cool chicks embarking on a journey back to the Land of Skinny. We're busty babes and we're ready for next summer's bikinis! We're also family, with the same blood, the same nose and husbands whose names are both "Bobby."

This blog was created as a way to help each other reach our goals to become unfat! It'll allow some virtual butt kicking since we live several states away from each other... we're both fairly short and our legs just won't reach from NC to GA and back!

karita sits up & walks

So for the last couple of mandated workouts, I had to fit 'em in where ever I could... I was NOT missing my gua sha treatment!!! On Sunday, BL & I decided to do a triplet. A triplet is where u decide on 3 CrossFit movements combined to make a workout. We initially designed a CF style workout with 3 rounds of situps, push ups, and dips using our parellettes... Yeah, um, that didn't happen for me!!! My first attempt using the parellettes was kinda funny, the second one hurt! When u fall two times in a row straight on your bum from about 10-12 inches in the air, you pretty much decide NOT to proceed with that exercise! So, once again, I scaled an exercise to something I could do... I kept the situps and push ups to punish myself and then, cuz I was mad I couldn't do the parellettes, I threw squats in there, too! 3 rounds of 75 reps total, however I wanted to break it up! I will say I was proud to finish in about 15 minutes! I also had a little extra incentive... Sadie planted herself at my feet, so she got a whole lotta tummy rubbin' whenever I came up for my situp!
My last workout was pretty simple, a very brisk walk with BL and the Beag on my lunch hour!
I am happy to report that I did get my favorite torture treatment and have been threatened by DrB to do another 8 workouts... Here we go again! :)
