Tasty Tuesday & Burnin' Hammies!


This was super easy!
pasta to serve 4
3 medium chicken breasts-diced
1 head of broccoli
1 tomato
1-2 tbs pitted kalamata olives
1-2 tbs fresh chopped basil
2 tbs pine nuts-toasted
sprinkling of Parmesan
olive oil

While boiling pasta-cut up broccoli and tomato and dice up chicken. Cook chicken with a tad of olive oil.

When chicken is almost done-throw in Broccoli and about 2 tbs of water-cook for about 2 minutes. Toss in tomato, olives stir...add pasta and basil last. Place serving on platter and sprinkle with pine nuts and Parmesan.

QUADS AND HAMMIES!!!

My hams are talking to me right now-even sitting down...LOL!

Here is what I did:

dead lifts-
1 set of 12 w/20k on bar
1 set of 12 w/30k on bar
2 sets of 6 w/40k on bar (I know it's not particularly heavy yet-I've only been doing these for a couple of months-it felt heavy to me...hehehe!)

alternating lunges with stepper
3 sets of 10 w/7.5k dumbbells

hanging leg raises (for abs) 12
super set w/leg extensions....12 slow reps w/25k 3 sets of that super set

finished off with lying leg curls
12 reps 15K 3 sets.

I know I need to get heavier on this stuff....but dang..I kid you not-my hams are fried!

have a great day!
Ciao for now!
