Dude.
I love Plyometrics. I really do. Today I did P90X Plyometrics and it was yummy fun as usual. Have you tried it yet? OH Sweet mother of God- I kid you not, I was not planning this, I just went to YouTube to search for a video on P90X Plyo to show you and this gem came across my path:
Ok, perhaps some of you recall that I have shared some thoughts on Jim Rome before. Like the fact that I wish he was my baby daddy. Like I'd really like to burn some calories with him. Like, he makes me shudder and not in the gross creepy way, when freaks in airports stalk me and ask me inappropriate questions like, "What color is your bra??? hehehe" #FAIL I.Want.To.Go.To.There.
Don't you think Jim and I make a good couple?
Look. It's Jim Rome on top of Kelly Olexa. WHAT? This is the kind of blog post my mom will read and just shake her head and say, "Kelly don't say those dirty words!" Sorry Mom. I have unclean thoughts occasionally.
What was I saying? I forgot. Oh PLYOMETRICS. Anyway, so I did the workout, although when it got to the last bonus round- there were some sports inspired moves that used the arms- so, I kind of made up my own stuff. Thus I didn't do the full 55 minutes, and yet I burned 455 calories. I bet if Jim was here I'd burn a lot more calories. In fact I probably wouldn't be blogging right now I would be EDITED EDITED EDITED EDITED.
Thank you to Deverie for pointing me in the direction of this diagram:
Dr. Kelly here showing you that I believe it is my DELTOPECTORAL muscle that I jacked- doing a hammer curl with 20lb dumbbells and using momentum at the end of my workout- #FAIL on all accounts. Go easy Kelly- again- demonstration of me in the past trying to do TOO MUCH TOO FAST. Simmer down Olexa, simmer DOWN!
I will say that today, I am feeling 50% better in that area- and I made sure to not go, "oh I feel better now, let's kick it!" Nope. Took it easy on arm movements. And I think Jim Rome is coming over tonight to give me a massage. WHAT? Where was I?
HAHAHAHA. Dude.
Gotta run kittens. I'm on a plane tomorrow, back on Friday. I'm packing my workout clothes and sticking with the mostly cardio plan for this week. Tomorrow morning I will workout at home, outta here at 11am, workout tomorrow morning, and then Friday morning before I head home. ;-) You don't think I will?
WATCH ME.
What's that? Oh that's me in Miami like a year ago. I was SO pissed that week because my bikini was so much tighter and I thought the fishermen on the beach might think I was a beached tan whale but....I've lost weight SINCE then and I will be even MORE buff and bootylicious on my next vacation.....stay tuned for where THAT will be, cuz we might do a group blogger getaway and one of you lucky kittens might get to GO! BOOYA!!! Now- keep thinking about yourself in a bikini each time you don't wanna workout. That pretty much does it for me. A true sign of success in the future will be me posting a TOTAL bikini picture of myself- maybe not even SUCKING IN. Oh Heavens. That will be nice. ;-)

Come to San Diego! I would LOVE to workout with you. :) And I mean that in a very clean way, mom. lol.
Lindsay do you know that SD is like the ONE city in this country I have never visited? Seriously!
hahaha that little snippet - HILARIOUS! I'm pretty sure my version does not have "get your bucket nearby"
I love plyo, never press the pause, I'm always proud I got through it... but I'm not gonna lie, I totally get that "case of the tuesdays"
P.S. Love the random mix of music today. Is it still on shuffle? Enya and whatever that "wanna be my lover" is, I don't even remember - love it :)
hehehehe Sharon- me too!! (case of the Tuesdays) LOL and yes, still on shuffle hahahha
Kelly I loved your vlog!...Ive recently had the same type of epiphany . I MUST track my macros! Its really the only way I can make the kind of progress I like to see. I'll track all week and pre plan all of my meals and then have one incredibly naughty meal once a week. I find that I stay on track that way and I dont have that nagging guilty feeling after having my refeed meal. It works for me and I agree you gotta do what YOU gotta do to be happy and make progress.
Getting my treadmill on Monday--contemplating hanging my bikini on it!!!!!!
My food habits are failing miserabley!! :(
Kelly- I've had several frustrating pissed off moments the past week...and I may or may not have had 2 servings of Ezekiel bread with natural PB on it. NOT on the "plan" but I was annoyed. Back on track but GAH!!! I will be owning my bikini, that's all there is to it. Deb! I'm using FitDay.com and let me tell you- tracking on there and seeing the percentages..wow it is helping me make even BETTER choices!! Like I gotta cut the avocado in my salads-- was using one avocado for dressing- thinking, "oh this is healthy fats and such.." then I see I was at 40% and 48% fat (all "good" fats but still) the past 2-3 days. No more.
Girl, you really are so crazy. You are GORG! WTH is wrong with you? NOTHING! You look fantastic and we know how hard you work. But seriously, you are lovely always.
Now come on, I need motivation! hehehe Teasin' cuz I know that's MY job.
Love your blog as always.
Deb- LOL I am so LOL ;-)
