Carpet burn............from the gym!

You know this really bugs me. I did shoulders today and abs, 1/2 hour of each as can't get to the gym tomorrow as its Baileys 1st birthday party. So anyway, I use the thick padded mat with my towel on top I may add and yet I still get what I call carpet burn. Now I am by no means a fat person, I wear a size 8 but having said that I do carry about 24% body fat which is really high and I can't seem to get rid of it, but it is all on my lower body hence why I get carpet type burn doing crunches. My back is really defined and skinny in fact the area where I get carpet burn the bone just sticks out, my spine sticks out too which I can't help but why oh why does my lower body look like its never seen any weights of anykind and yet I work it heavy. Maybe I am doing something wrong, maybe I need to diet like a competitor for the rest of my life???? who knows, but it gives me the SH***! So now I am walking around with what looks like carpet burn on my back!

Thanks Jeh for your comment about the noodles, I will have a look around!

Miracle Noodles

Does anyone know in Perth where I can get these?

Back at the gym, doing something a bit different at the moment. 1 lower body heavy workout, 1 upper body heavy workout, 2 x circuit workouts with weights with 20 mins interval cardio training, 2 days of cardio. This is different to my 4 day weight split and only doing for a few weeks to shake things up and for something different really until I can get my mind around creating a new program for myself. At the end of next month I will be having surgery again and won't be able to train for about 6 weeks so I am thinking after this of doing a 12 week challenge again with an online trainer, takes the guesswork out of it for me!
