Ended with 45 mins of cardio on the elliptical with an avg HR of 135.
My back was a little bit tight afterwards but nothing major and I don't have any tingling in my leg/ foot. I'll be back to early morning cardio tomorrow.

Re: 84 Days...T Contest Log
Well....my only thought is that it puts the majority under the same roof, so to speak. What do you think PLJ? Basically eliminates the major competition for UFC doesn't it?

Re: 84 Days...T Contest Log
it makes me think that dexter isnt a good enough reason to keep showtime...
It will make it easier to have people go back in forth as they progress or hit a slump.
Unfortunately it takes some competition away in regards to fighter pay.
Hopefully this leads to a mma channel and less ppv, but i doubt it.
More likely some super fights will happen.
Faster to get on a world stage, hopefully bring in greater talent
mixed feelings over all

Re: 84 Days...T Contest Log
I've been downloading dexter...could probably help you out there!! I love that show too and Canada is always a season behind!
I'd be shocked to see less PPV too. It'll be interesting to see what happens. I wish I was going to the UFC debut in Toronto this year. It's gonna be awesome!!

Thanks Zed. I'll probably save legs for a bit later in the week. I had a bit of numbness today in my leg. Just a bit.

Today was just a cardio day. I did a double session...2 45 min sessions. One this morning and one after work today. I'm dragging it a bit today with the time change but...we actually got above freezing today! Hooray! It's a miracle.

Re: 84 Days...T Contest Log
I just finished watching the show Heavy. I love this show. I love to see the people challenge themselves beyond what they ever thought possible and feel the excitement when they start seeing results. I find this show inspiring on so many levels and can really relate to so many of the struggles these people talk about. My dream job would be to work in a one of those facilities and do the counseling aspect of weight loss.
A special friend of mine shared this quote with me recently...
"Don't judge someone by the number of times they've been knocked down, judge them by the number of times they have picked themselves back up and tried again."
The last few days, I have had some personal challenges and I had completely checked out of the contest mentally. I hit that wall where I really questioned myself, my place in the contest and my reasons for continuing. It really has felt like one obstacle after another and I honestly hit that "forget this" point.
I read that quote and I actually printed it out and put it on my fridge. It struck me and made me remember why I joined this thing in the first place. It was to push myself out of the rut I've been in, challenge my comfort zones and remind myself that I am capable of setting a goal and sticking to it. It has been therapy in a way. I have faced each and every challenge head on and not always dignified but I have grown tremendously on a personal level. Many of you have helped me do that..giving me feedback and support.
And so..I continue on. It's no longer about competing with everyone else...it's about competing with myself and finishing this 12 weeks regardless of the outcome. I've had a mental shift and re-learned some valuable life lessons in the last few days.
Thank you to those of you who have checked in on me, pm'd or emailed me. Even the k messages help me out.
Nothing but smooth sailing from here on out!

Re: 84 Days...T Contest Log
Good for you chika. Really thats what it has been about for the duration. You, each one of you competing against yourselves. After all that is the most challenging of all.
Am glad to see that you caught your breath and are back on it my gurl.
Stay tuff and good luck chika!
