We finally got a new laptop... it only took us a few days to scoop one up.

We shopped at every possible electronics store possible and found a good deal on a Toshiba- nothing fancy and actually a lot less fancy than our last one, but it delivers on helping me to update this blog- what more could a girl ask for???

To update you on the past few days, last night I did a workout with a bunch of power cleans. I could only get up to about 85 pounds, which was frustrating b/c I would try 90 pounds, but couldn't get the bar up no matter how hard I tried.

I actually plan to blame the whole fiasco on the music at the gym... ugh, it's been so annoying lately- a lot of Christina Aguilera (whom I love, but not when working out) and love songs. WTF right? I just couldn't get into the workout last night at all.

Not tonight though.

Tonight, I kicked some major booty!!!

I didn't get home until almost 7 pm which means I put in a 12 hour day easily. I almost fell asleep waiting for Michael to come home so we could head to the gym together and he was 5 minutes away. I didn't think my workout was going to be all that great.

Tonight was "Cindy"
As many rounds as possible in 20 minutes of:
5 pull-ups (level 10 assist)
10 push-ups
15 squats

I ended up completing 17 ROUNDS!!!

17!!!

This means I did:
85 pull-ups
170 push-ups
255 squats

Did you read that??? This chica did 170 push-ups and no, they weren't modified!!! Holy crap right?

I honestly remember like a year ago when I could only do 15 push-ups at a time. It's unbelievable to me (and I was there) that I did that many push-ups tonight.

Thanks to all those pull-ups and push-ups, I'm not sure I'll be able to lift my arms tomorrow, but hey, totally worth it right???

I'll be trying to get caught up on everyone's blogs this weekend... FYI.

Holy cow - 170?! That's awesome!

And *finally*? Like it's been a month? You crack me up - but I know how you feel. A day without my laptop is like a day without my right arm sometimes. Ugh!

Wow, great job on the workout! I bet your heart rate really gets up when you do those rounds so fast. Amazing!

Haha, my word verification is 'hyper' :P
