I didn't even realize you responded. Sorry.
Sorry to hear about your knee issues. How are you handling lifting with it?
That beginning workout doesn't sound too bad! For the next 4 weeks I'm doing supersets which has be running around the gym to get it done. I do 20-25 reps in one set of whatever then the next set is working a different muscle. So I am doing something like this:
20 reps of bicep curls
15 reps of tricep kickbacks
15 reps of bicep curls
12 reps of tricep kickbacks
and so on. 3 sets of each alternating between the two per set. It's interesting but annoying when the gym is busy.
What gym do you go to?

Hey! sorry I didn't respond earlier- I was at Sea World today!!
I actually go to 24-hour fitness... I was going to look into LA fitness too- to see if I could hit double the zumba, lol! Probably not- but it is fun to think about
Your workout sounds good too! It is tough to do intervals with a busy gym- learned that one today. I went to do workout #2 of NROL4W and had to wait a little longer than prescribed between intervals. Today was 2x 15 of each of the following:
Dead Lifts (90 lbs today)
Lat Pulldowns
Shoulder presses
Lunges
Situps on Swiss ball (only 2x10 reps for swiss ball)
The lunges are the hardest with my knee. The good thing is that it isn't tons of pain all of the time- only when i'm trying to bend it really- and it is only a sharp pain at the end if I go too far. It is a ruptured PCL so not a whole lot they can do for me according to the surgeon and the Internet
So my main goal is to lose a LOT of weight, and work on my strength- so weightlifting is a total must right now... maybe light on the legs, but I'm going to really push my upper body for sure!

Cool- thanks!
I'm kind of out of commission right now- I got hurt last weekend so I probably won't be able to work out for a couple of weeks... but after that, bring it on

Yeah- I'm already missing Zumba- it sucks
I work for the CA Department of Corrections & Rehabilitation. So it is a state agency. We get 3 furloughs / month... both H and I work for the state, so a total of 6 unpaid days off each month
What are you doing for the county??
I'll be working at the sheriff's dept in accounting. I have to start at the entry level which sucks pretty bad and it's a pay cut but I just needed my foot in the door.
Corrections is where I ultimately want to be.
