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.

One Minute at a Time

Sunday = run, cut from 5.8 to 5 miles cause I was late for a very important breakfast date + late evening attempt at "The Maximum Mass Workout" from Men's Health, which I couldn't complete because I don't have all the right equipment, but I did more reps to make up for less weight.

Monday = run 5 miles and jump in the hot tub. The voices in my head from a Neuroscene podcast told me that working out alone is not so great. Now I'm stumped.



Because I wasted the Tuesday sun by harvesting what's left in the garden and hanging around the grocery store, there could be no outdoor run! Back to the garage, working out alone against medical advice (podcast), I did everything here for one minute, except the jump rope warmup (five), and with as little transition time as possible between things.

Twice through, with heavy resistance tube or step where relevant: rows, chest flyes, incline chest presses, wall sit, standing abs (left then right), soccer drills.

Twice through, heavy tube, step: box jumps, lat pull downs, standing back row (left then right), burpees, chest pulls, side plank (left then right).

Twice through, heavy tube, step: box runs, back leg raise (left then right), bicep curls, upright rows, shoulder shrugs, plank.

Twice through, light tube, step: football drill, lateral leg raise (left then right), shoulder press, overhead tricep extension, frogs, supermans (had to be modified due to lower back PT, so I did upward dog type pushups instead).
