FAQs

At least once a day, Lynndi Lauper and Doctor nln ask each other this question. But it's really code for 'share your workout plan'. And if there is no workout plan, the convo gets even more supercharged as it turns to special topics like injuries, therapies, out of town guests, extensive travel requirements of the gig, or exhaustion. And the other most FAQ is "What are you eating for dinner?" Doctor nln and Lynndi have so much combined knowledge that blogging it was inevitable.

Witness as we beat ourselves up with hideous workout plans and then gorge on lemon heads and sugar free ice cream.

Sunday Funday

An eleven-year-old told me that a key to homo habilis' success (and the subsequent success of its surviving descendants) was perspiration. Thanks, earlier primates! Because we can sweat to cool down, we can run several miles at a time, even for hours, eventually catching up with our faster but furrier prey and stabbing it with a sharp tool or just snapping its neck as it pants and passes out and then enjoying a high protein, high fat meal or two. So that's what I did today. I ran for an hour, all the way to OPH for a delicious meal of eggs, mushrooms, broccoli and coffee, just like Homo Habilis used to eat. I even had a little bit of pancake with sugar free syrup and lots of butter. Later I did these, 25 or 50 at a time in circuit until I was done: 100 pushups; 200 various ab exercises; 100 shoulder raises (three positions) (low weight dumbbells); 50 of that other shoulder exercise (low weight) that includes plie squats and alternates a press at chest height; 50 lateral shoulder raises with a twist (25 to each side) (low weight); 100 squats with weights; 50 of some other thing I have now forgotten. And then we saw Prometheus and ate again because I was still sweaty.
